[VIDEO] Boom-shaka-laka! Play as Obama, Palin, and friends in NBA Jam

Just like its 16-bit forebear, the 2010 remake of basketball classic NBA Jam will feature a ton of hidden characters, including its share of politicians.
There’s an even spread of Democrats and Republicans, including Obama, Palin, Dubya Bush, Dick Cheney, and Joe Biden. Neatly, there’s also a return for Bill Clinton, who appeared in the first Jam game in 1994 (and yeah, Hilary’s there). All good, clean fun, and I’m loving the technique of using hi-res 2D photos for the heads:
NBA Jam arrived on Wii earlier this week, incidentally, and seems to be getting a good response. If you want to dunk Palin as Obama on PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360, those versions are out later this year.
