The classic game Slam City with Scottie Pippen is making a return on Nintendo Switch, Limited Run Games revealed today. Look for it in 2026.

We have the following information about the game:

This ain’t no cartoon game. This is where real basketball is played… by real players on the street! Of you can beat these guys and earn enough respect, you actually get to take on Scottie Pippen!

Slam City has all the action of real one-on-one basketball. You can shoot or drive to the hoop. You can steal the ball or block shots. It’s all in there. You got the rock. Now take it to the hole.

Key Features

• A real interactive movie, not a computer-generated game.
• Perform spectacular live-action moves to the hoop!
• Go one-on-one with five of the slammin’est hoopsters on the blacktop:
  • Fingers – He talks a lot of trash. He has to look good when he scores.
  • Juice – She can hit anything from anywhere. Competition is her middle name; makin’ you look bad is her game.
  • Mad Dog – He’s been known to ask for help climbing off the backboard after skying past you to the hoop. White men can jump.
  • Smash – He’s from the same gene pool as the big men. Hates humanity. Hates you.
  • Scottie Pippen – The real thing-not some cheap cartoon character that maybe on a good day sorta looks like him. There ain’t nobody tougher.
