"Ultimate Basketball," released for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1990 by Aicom, is a fast-paced sports simulation game that offers fans of basketball an action-packed experience. In the game, players select from one of eight fictional teams, each with distinct characteristics and skill levels in a variety of areas such as speed, shooting, and defense. The game allows for both single-player and multiplayer modes, where players can compete in exhibition matches or take part in a season mode, striving to win the championship through a series of games against other teams.
A standout feature of "Ultimate Basketball" is its gameplay mechanics which strive to mirror the real dynamics of basketball. The game offers an array of offensive and defensive maneuvers, from basic dribbling and shooting to more complex techniques like alley-oops and block shots. The viewpoint switches between a side-scrolling perspective during regular play and a more dynamic close-up view during key moments like slam dunks, adding a dramatic flair to the gameplay. Although it did not boast the official NBA license or real player names, the game was applauded for its engaging gameplay and became a memorable entry in the sports genre for the NES during the early '90s.
