ESPN Video Games reported yesterday that “EA Sports has acquired the rights from the NBA to deliver an updated version of NBA Jam to ship exclusively for Wii.” If it’s half the remake the excellent Punch-Out was for Wii, gamers should be in for a treat. He’s heating up!

OH…. MY… GOD… I LOVED NBA JAM!
If it's true enough to the original, like you said about Punch-Out!, then this could be simply freakin' sweet.
i've been waiting for this for a long time. HE'S ON FIRE!!
I've never really been a big fan of basketball games, but NBA Jam was the exception. I remember enjoying the stink out of that game.
I just hope that the remake stays focused on the "fun" factor, and doesn't get too caught up in graphics, or whatnot. Not that good graphics are a bad thing, but if it focuses on that instead of just good old fun, it won't be the same.
I'm like Joshdad. I've never been a fan of basketball games, but NBA Jam was awesome. Hopefully Bill Clinton makes a comback as a secret character :D.
The original is still the best basketball video game ever made!
I can see them putting Obama in for the update. That'll be funny.
@srkelley, I completely forgot about all the surprise and hidden characters in the game. Obama would be great, but who else? (no Nintendo characters)
