Come on and slam, and welcome to the Jam
You’d be forgiven for looking at this fall’s Wii release calendar and thinking you had stumbled out of a time machine set for 1997. Between all of the new 2D revivals starring some of gaming’s all-time classics and a new, old Bond movie adaptation, there's almost no time to see whether the Fresh Prince...

BOOMSHAKALAKA!!! The first to post. My nephew and I would spend all night at the Quick Stop having epic quadruple overtime battles.
I really can't wait, and I've been playing the Mega Drive version of this game for weeks now, but this trailer is nowhere near as good as the first one they put out because there's only the one announcement :[ where was HE'S ON FIRE
I really hope you can still break the backboard. This looks like fun, but with all the added features I don't think it's going to have the simple fun of the original.
BOOMSHAKALAKAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
