As usual with big name games, it's hard to justify buying a watered-down handheld version when you could get a 16-bit edition for just $25 more. But if you're a road-trippin' b-ball nut, Jam is one of the best hoops carts for the Game Boy yet.

Not surprisingly, the Game Boy version of NBA Jam looks and plays like the Game Gear version. It has the updated player rosters of the Sega CD version, but on the tiny screen there's no way you can tell the characters apart; in the portable editions, the play's the thing that's important. No problems there, though; it has a respectable number of dunks and the speed is pretty good. I would like to have seen two or even four player support, but the real hardcore jammers are playing the game on one of the 16-bit machines, anyway.
