NBA Jam Tournament Edition (commonly referred to as NBA Jam T.E.) is a basketball arcade game created by Midway in 1994 as a sequel to the hit game NBA Jam. The game featured rosters from the 1993-94 NBA season. The console versions follow the 1994-95 NBA season, with updated rosters and team logos. Impressively, the entire game was coded in assembly and features more new features and Easter eggs combined with the same game play as it's predecessor. Console versions were well known for featuring tons of Easter eggs; the home versions of Jam T.E. let the play use a variety of characters who were not NBA players but athletes from others sports such as the Chicago White Sox baseball player Frank Thomas, Philadelphia Eagles football player Randall Cunningham and also play using non athletes including actors and musicians such as Heavy D, the Fresh Prince, Jazzy Jeff and the Beastie Boys. The game even allowed a gamer to use then-U.S. President Bill Clinton, then-First Lady Hillary Clinton, or then-Vice President Al Gore (and Atari's Vice President of Software Development Leonard Tramiel on the Atari Jaguar version) as well as the Crown Prince of England, Prince Charles. To access these special 'Bonus Players' required a use of inputting cheat codes to do so. The early arcade versions even allowed players to choose from hidden Mortal Kombat characters (Raiden, Reptile and Sub-Zero).
