Hoops is an Aicom NES basketball with its one on one and two on two street basketball. The representation offers oblique outdoor court view with dunks and three point shots in a Japanese arcade street sport formula. Honest for NES basketball fans, curiosity of the 8 bit Aicom catalog.

Collector interest

Jaleco's street basketball ranks among European PAL releases rarer than their NTSC counterpart, explaining a complete value out of proportion with a modest loose price. Lightly reissued and shipped late in the NES European life cycle, this snappy two-on-two mainly attracts collectors of PAL Jaleco cartridges seeking to fill an often patchy third-party shelf.
