Fast Break

Another whole whom basketball game on the NES. The game is ok, the graphics are ok, the music, and sound effects are ok. Basically the game is okay.

I remember playing this when I was younger and it's fun but gosh I must've been a better player when I was a kid lol. The steals from the AI is ridiculous. There are better bball games to get on this system but I still had to have it.

I'm not gonna say this game is terrible, because it does the best it can considering when it was released. That being said, this game is not nearly the best basketball game released for the NES. Two-on-two action? Maybe I can get on board. The real issues with the game are the same that plague most NES basketball games. When was the last time you saw an NBA game that featured 47 steals? Or a team (usually the computer) which grabs 56 offensive rebounds, even on rookie mode? I'm not asking for too much realism (it is nintendo, after all) but don't expect to have an NBA type experience playing this game.
