How to Play NBA Showdown '94
Quick start
Choose an exhibition, playoff, or full-season game, select NBA teams and lineups, then move the ball through passes before taking an open shot. Use the star or marker to identify the controlled player, switch early on defence, and position near the basket for rebounds. Adjust substitutions and strategy from the pause menus.
Controls
D-pad: move the marked player and navigate menus. Face buttons pass, shoot, jump or block, steal, and switch control according to offence and defence; Controller Setup assigns the exact order. Start continues setup screens and pauses during play. Use A/B or Left/Right to cycle many pregame options and C to select teams.
