NBA Hangtime is a basketball game for the Nintendo 64, PlayStation, Sega Genesis, Super NES, arcade and Windows. It was released for the Nintendo 64 in 1997.
When Midway and Acclaim parted ways, Acclaim kept the NBA Jam name. Midway made their own version of the Jam franchise, which was more popular than the Acclaim version, as it had more of an original Jam feel. New features of the series included create-a-player, alley oops and double dunks. A software update known as NBA Maximum Hangtime was released for the arcades later in the life cycle.
The next NBA title to be released for video game systems from Midway was NBA Showtime.
======================================
At the main screen there are three commands: create player, enter name, and select teams. The Create Player port allows players to create an NBA player with specifications they choose and enter him into an NBA game (the Enter Name port facilitates this). Specifications include height, weight, power, shooting and defensive skills. Created players become more powerful as they earn additional attribute points after each four games won (three games for the arcade version).
The Select Teams port allows the game player to select from any of the 29 NBA teams then in existence and match them in 4 quarters of NBA basketball (3 minutes each), with three minute overtimes if necessary. The Enter Name option allows the player to load their created player and their progress through the NBA Hangtime challenge of defeating all 29 NBA teams. The carousel of teams begins with the Vancouver Grizzlies and ends with the Chicago Bulls (on their way to being NBA champions at the time of the game's release). After beating all 29 teams, the challenge continues as the player faces a number of secret characters.
The actual game play consists of a fast paced game of two-on-two basketball. Similar to NBA Jam, players have the ability to perform ridiculous moves, especially gravity-defying dunks. Players have a limited amount of turbo that allows them to move faster and execute special moves. If a player scores three baskets in a row without their opponent scoring, he will become "On Fire," providing infinite turbo as well as a significant bonus to shooting accuracy, and he can goaltend without getting penalized. Fire lasts until the opponent scores or the player "On Fire" attempts six shots. Also, if three alley-oops or double dunks are performed without the opponent scoring, the team will gain 25 seconds of "Team Fire" with both players on fire. Team fire can only be broken by the opponent scoring an alley-oop or double dunk. Different players have different skills that reflect their real-life counterparts. Players can be substituted at halftime. Field goals, three pointers, dunks, rebounds, assists, steals, blocked shots and turnovers as well as player injuries are counted in halftime and end of game stats, as well as a quarter-by-quarter summary of points scored for each team.
======================================
Due to contractual obligations from acting in the 1996 movie Space Jam, several players were not allowed to be featured in NBA Hangtime. Chief among those barred from appearing in NBA Hangtime were Michael Jordan, Mugsy Bogues, and Charles Barkley. In an unrelated note, Shaquille O'Neal was unable to be featured in the game because of his contractual obligations to the movie Kazaam and the game Shaq-Fu.

NBA Jam is a basketball arcade game created by Midway in 1993. It is the first entry in the NBA Jam series, and was written entirely in assembly language. The main designer and programmer for this game was Mark Turmell.[1][2] The release of NBA Jam gave rise to a new genre of sports games which were based around action-packed, unrealistic gameplay. The arcade version features team rosters from the 1992-93 NBA season and the console versions use rosters from the 1993-94 NBA season. More up to date ports were released for the Sega CD, Game Boy, and Game Gear later in 1994. Midway did not secure the license to use Michael Jordan's name or likeness, and as such he was not available as a player for the Chicago Bulls or any other team (although Bulls teammate Scottie Pippen was given Jordan-esque attributes, perhaps to make up for this absence). Another notable absence from the home version is Shaquille O'Neal, although he did appear on the arcade version as a member of the Orlando Magic.
===========================================
Midway, no stranger to releasing landmark games (having earlier released Ms. Pac-Man), had started experimenting with the ideas two years earlier, with the High Impact series. Both High Impact and Super High Impact had somewhat average success in arcades. The gameplay of NBA Jam is based on Arch Rivals, another 2-on-2 basketball game released by Midway in 1989. However, it was the release of NBA Jam that brought mainstream success to the genre. The game became exceptionally popular, and generated a significant amount of money for arcades after its release, largely because of the fairly expensive prices for game play. The typical cost to play a full game of NBA Jam ranged from $1.00 to $2.00. Nonetheless, the game was a smash hit. The original arcade release made $1 billion in quarters.
==========================================
NBA Jam, which featured 2-on-2 basketball, was one of the first real playable basketball arcade games, and was also one of the first sports games to feature NBA-licensed teams and players, and their real digitized likenesses. A key feature of NBA Jam was the exaggerated nature of the play - players jumped many times above their own height, making slam dunks that defied both human capabilities and the laws of physics. There were no fouls, free throws, or violations except goaltending. This meant the player was able to freely shove his opponent out of the way. Additionally, the game had an "on fire" feature, where if one player made three baskets in a row, he would become "on fire" and have unlimited turbo, no goaltending, and increased shooting ability, until the other team scored. The game is filled with easter eggs, special features and players activated by initials or button/joystick combinations. Early versions of the sequel, NBA Jam Tournament Edition, allowed players to put in codes that allowed people to play as characters from Mortal Kombat, but the NBA, uneasy over the controversies surrounding Mortal Kombat's levels of violence, forced Midway to remove these characters in later updates.
===========================================
Note: Some home console versions of NBA Jam were coded later than others, and as a result of real-life roster changes or (in the cases of Charles Barkley and Shaquille O'Neal) legal reasons, some rosters differ from version to version.
