Blue cartridge?

[erhajj]

tecmo Basketball was awesome.  I would love to have a cart of it.

[nomaaa]

mine cost $8. worth it, even though it is above our normal $5 range.

[erhajj]

I would snatch it up for $10 even.

[nomaaa]

agreed. only problem is no one will play with me anymore.

I paid $40 or $50 for that game shortly after it came out... I feel ripped off.

I disagree with you, nomaaa, that the Jazz were the best team - I always thought post players were pretty worthless (their height advantage didn't really do much), so to me, the best team was the Bulls, who had three starters who could consistently hit from anywhere inside the 3-point line, and Pippen and Jordan were also ultra-quick and could block most anyone's shots.

[nomaaa]

point taken, as most would agree that the bulls were the best team. detroit is looked upon as another stellar team, with thomas running the show.

my favorite part about the jazz - john stockton and jeff malone (guards) and theodore edwards (small forward) could hit any shot inside the three point line, but (excluding stockton) had the height advantage to shoot over many defenders. to help stockton, i felt he was one of the quicker guys in the game - able to force millions of fast breaks a game, especially when deep on the outlet (which most of the time he was, unless you were stupid enough to use him as a defender). karl malone was great because of his all around ability (with decent speed and pretty good shot. the only weakness of the jazz was mark eaton (at the center position), but as most would say that this position meant the least in the game, you're really not losing much, and since he was 7'2" or so, you're in pretty good company.

I always played with the warriors. 

I believe that tim, chris, and billy owens were in that starting lineup.

Mark Eaton was the only player I ever saw start to get tired in a game with the default quarter length.  I was underrating the Jazz generally, though - I forgot that Edwards was pretty good.

JoeDirt and I used to play tecmo basketball online.  Very fun game.

Blue Iris??

Double Dribble was the shit back in the day.

The sound effect for three pointers rocked.

though most saw it as stupid, i always benched eaton in place of m. (mike?) brown.  he was hefty, he was non-white, and he could actually make shots. i really don't know why he didn;t start.

with the jazz, i always averaged more than 10 points for each player, then normally 30 for stockton and maybe 20 for edwards.

Mike Brown was one of the Pre-Championship Bulls that I was a big fan of, along with Pete Myers, Gene Banks(way pre-Champ) and of course Artis Gilmore
