About this episode

This episode discusses the NES port of Arch Rivals and its influence on the NBA Jam franchise.

Sports games are a rarity here on Afterglow, but every once in a while one will pop in, and this episode is one of them with the NES port of Arch Rivals, a BasketBrawl game. In this episode I go over my memories of what I feel is the foundation of the NBA Jam franchise.
