NBA Showdown 94

Before it was NBA Live, it was NBA Showdown.

Sound Test#

Enter the Game Genie code A65A-CAD0 (US/EU) or A67A-CACA (JP), then pause during gameplay and enter the coaching options menu. Press Down to make the sound test option appear. Note that the playcalling option must be set to off (for whatever reason) for the code to work.

Within the sound test itself, A and B toggle the track to play, and C plays it.
