122 - RealSports Basketball and Tennis by Atari

This week I cover two more games in the RealSports line, Tennis
and Basketball. Basketball was an unfinished prototype that saw the
light of day near the turn of the century. I think there is only
one more RealSports title left, Boxing, which oddly came out much
later than the rest. Next time I'll be discussing the Activision
games Oink! and Dolphin, so if you have any thoughts on these games
(or the RealSports games, I expected the feedback to be a bit light
and I was not mistaken), please send it to me at
[email protected]. You will not regret it! Thank you so much
for listening, and this Sunday, please say hi to your mother for
me.
