Congratulations on your purchase of Jam

Fest Basketball. Now you can play a slam-

ming, jamming game of basketball against

an opponent with the skills of a pro. Steal the

ball, shoot three pointers and jam as you feel

the game vibrate in your hands. It’s the most

fun you can have off the court!
You can play alone, or use an optional connect-

ing cord* for two players when you want to

compete against a friend. You'll enjoy playing

Jam Fest Basketball with its large LCD, realis-

tic sound effects and three game options—

Tournament Game, Free Throws and

Designated Shooting Areas.
