3.0 out of 5 stars This game is so-so.
NBA Showtime is so-so. The bad things are that you only get to play with two players on each team. Second, you can't choose from the whole team. Last, the graphics are pretty bad. The good things are that the controls are easy to remember, and when you forgot the password to your latest season or playoffs it is there for you and you just have to copy it over.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Game I've Ever Played!, December 24, 2006
A Kid's Review
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: NBA Showtime (Game Cartridge)
The game offers you five modes including Practice, Exhibition, Season, and Playoffs. Gameplay is inspired by NBA Jam with many gravity-defying slam dunks and other crazy moves. The action is extremely fast with a lot of dunks and 3-pointers. Whenever a team makes three shots in a row that team gets "On Fire" and they can be pretty hard to stop. With all 29 NBA teams and over 100 players this game is sure to give you a good time!

Pros:
Good graphics
Cool music
Smooth animations
Easy control

Cons:
Long passwords
Players don't have numbers
Everyone look the same

2.0 out of 5 stars I wouldn't recommend it, December 13, 2001
By 
John (Lisbon, CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: NBA Showtime (Game Cartridge)
This is a pretty bad basketball game with a lot of flaws. You only have two people per team (which really stinks.) Secondly, the graphics are pretty bad, even for Gameboy Color (you want good graphics, look at the Zelda games for GBC!) And what's really annoying is the fact that you can't save, there's only passwords! I mean, by now, all GB cartridges should be able to save! My tip: look for a better B-ball game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Awesome Basketball Game!!!!!, December 25, 2006
A Kid's Review
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: NBA Showtime (Game Cartridge)
This is absolutely the best basketball game for the Game Boy Color. The game features all 29 NBA teams and more than 100 real NBA players with real ratings. There are four modes of gameplay including season, exhibition, playoffs, and practice. In addition, there are extra courts and teams that can be unlocked. On the court, you will see players do many rim-rattling jams. The animations look very crisp and clean during the action. The sound department is also very well-done. If you want an entertaining basketball game then you can't go wrong with this stellar arcade b-ball game!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Basketball Game for the Game Boy Color!!!!!, December 24, 2006
A Kid's Review
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: NBA Showtime (Game Cartridge)
This game is simply the best basketball game I have played on the Game Boy Color. The gameplay is very fast with numerous slam dunks and other cool moves. There's no foul in this game so the action is not interrupted and often result in a lot of points. The five modes of gameplay are practice, exhibition, season, and playoffs. Combined them with cool music and over 100 NBA players you are sure to get a kick out of this game!

This game is very entertaining. You can do many different dunks and other cool moves. The gameplay is very similar in style to NBA Jam. After you make three consecutive shots your team will get "On Fire". If you enjoy playing arcade basketball then this game is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Coolest Basketball Game!, December 21, 2006
A Kid's Review
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: NBA Showtime (Game Cartridge)
If you love NBA Jam then you will love this game, as well. There are cool moves and gravity-defying dunks as well as the "ON FIRE" mode when your team makes three baskets in a row! The arcade style action is very fast and exciting with lots of slam dunks and 3-pointers that often result in very high scores! This NBA licensed title has all the teams and all the star players from the time of its release. If you want some fun playing basketball on the Game Boy Color then there is not a better game out there to get.
