Arcade1Up Reveals NBA Jam 30th Anniversary Cabinet

Arcade1Up is releasing multiple versions of NBA Jam, but the biggest surprise of them is the 30th Anniversary Cabinet, revealed at NBA Con.


Arcade1Up has a brand new deluxe arcade cabinet on the way, as basketball fans will be happy to see the NBA Jam 30th Anniversary Deluxe Arcade Cabinet. This is about as throwback as you're going to get as they have faithfully recreated the Tournament Edtion version of the machine, ready for four-player action, with all the classic teams and players from the '90s (except Michael Jordan) ready to boom shakalaka its way into your home. Like other cabinets designed by the company, it comes with three versions of the title, a Wi-Fi setup for online play, and Partycade to take the game and play it anywhere as a portable title. You can check out the cabinet, along with versions of SHAQ Edition and 2-Player Countercade, and NBA Con, this weekend. The cabinet will go on sale this Fall online for $650, with the Partycade version being a Costco exclusive.

"We are thrilled to be able to announce the return of this iconic game at the first NBA Con," said Scott Bachrach, CEO of Arcade1Up. "Arcade1Up was the first to deliver an at-home NBA Jam arcade experience more than three years ago – and it was our first-ever machine to include Wi-Fi.
