Revisional Changes#

Original

Revision

Like the SNES and Genesis versions, later copies of the game replaced Charles Barkley with Dan Majerle due to Accolade licensing the former's name and likeness for Barkley Shut Up and Jam. Majerle was also given Kevin Johnson's original stats, with Johnson getting Barkley's stats (albeit with higher defense and lower dunks).

Oddities#

Like the Genesis prototype, Jim Jackson and Alonzo Mourning's portraits are mistakenly swapped. This was not fixed in the later revision, though it was in the unreleased Master System port.
