• Battery Backup Problems

When playing NBA Jam TE, if your battery does not save, you must initialize it. First, play a full game using the initials XXX. Then, play another full game using the initials NBA. Do not delete either of these players, and your battery should save so long as you've replaced it by now

• Bonus Players

To select a special character, highlight the first letter in their initials, then press Start while holding the first code button. Do the same thing with the second and third letters. A '*' indicates that any button will do. For example, to add Benny to your team, the initials are "BNY" and the code is B*C; thus, to select him you would:

Place the cursor over the "B" and hold START while pressing B.
Place the cursor over the "N" and press any button.
Place the cursor over the "Y" and hold START while pressing C.

When you reach the TEAM SELECT screen your character should appear. He or she will join you no matter what team you choose, trading places with one of the normal players. If he's taking the place of a player you want to keep, switch the team's order to swap players.
