Even though EA Sports has remained mum about its mysterious IP set to be revealed this month, inside sources have been talking. Last month, our source said the new game is being called “NFL Trainer,” a Wii exclusive that teaches how to throw a football. But ESPN’s source is saying something much different: they’re being led to believe an NBA Jam resurrection is happening.
According to ESPN’s sources, this NBA Jam title will be a Wii-exclusive retail game built by some of the hands that forged the original Midway series -- specifically, series creator Mark Turmell, who has allegedly been working on the game in Vancouver.
So what game is it? Now we’re pretty sure it’s a mix of both games. Think about it.

I can't wait for all the regulars to come in here and complain that it's a Wii game. Fun to be had all around.
It certainly sounds better than NFL Trainer.
But wait, it's on the Wii? Normally, this would suck, except that I have a Wii now. Kidding aside, this makes me very excited, I loved NBA Jam.
I was so disappointed by that one that Tecmo came out with recently, and I would be happy to see another Jam game. As long as Marv Albert is involved.
No, no, no! I wanted it to be a high-def remake of NBA Jam. That would have been awesome.
