Program Description
Double Dribble is a basketball video game by Konami. The original version was an arcade game released in 1986. In September of 1987 a version followed for Nintendo's Nintendo Entertainment System and Game Boy in 1991 (called Double Dribble 5-on-5). A version was also released for the Commodore 64 computer.

The NES version features 5-on-5 action on a horizontally scrolling court, four different teams (Boston Frogs, New York Eagles, Chicago Ox, L.A. Breakers), three levels of single-play difficulty, and four different choices of quarter lengths. Double Dribble was among the first games to feature cut scenes, which depicted a mid-air player completing a slam dunk, and one of the first to use speech, though in a limited quantity (such as announcing the game title and the game's beginning jump ball). The game was also notable for "The Star-Spangled Banner" being played in a cut scene depicting the crowd entering the stadium before the match begins, as well as displaying a half-time cheerleader performance.

A sequel called Double Dribble: The Playoff Edition was released in 1994 for the Sega Mega Drive.
