EA sports announced earlier this month that it would be resurrecting the the ‘NBA Jam’ franchise and that it would be released exclusively for Nintendo’s Wii.  In other news, I will be buying a Wii in the not-so-distant future.  Yesterday, images leaked of the Wii version out in the wild.

The first screenshot really excites me, it really seems like a modern version of the old game.  It also doesn’t seem to get too graphic crazy which I like.  IMO, it would be perfect if it were just a HD, crisp, clear version of the original.  The second shot makes me a bit skeptical.  I don’t want these crazy new graphical scenes that will really just break up the gameplay.  I’m also not really a gamer…my PS3 is mainly used for Rock Band, Blu-Ray, and Netflix.  I will probably get a Wii if it means I could recreate intense matchups like the one below!  How bout you?

(Kudos to The Koalition for the leaked images!)
