Arch Rivals: A Basketbrawl! | Nintendo Entertainment System Releases | NintendoReporters

 [![Arch Rivals: A Basketbrawl!](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/arch-rivals-a-basketbrawl.png "Arch Rivals: A Basketbrawl!")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/arch-rivals-a-basketbrawl.png)The full-court action between the Arch Rivals is really hot tonight. Here’s Mohawk, taking it to the hoop… POW! He just got nailed in the alley with a right cross! FOUL! FOUL! FOUL!
What?! No Foul? That’s right. No Fouls. This is basketball where breaking the rules is part of the rules! If you can’t block a shot – knock your opponent’s block off. If you can’t steal the ball – steal his shorts! But don’t think these tactics are enough to win. Arch Rivals still requires real B-ball skills like passing, shooting, ball handling, slam dunks, and 3 point shots.
Based on the arcade smash hit, Arch Rivals brings all of its hard-hitting “in your face” action into your home. Whether you’re going for a fast break, dodging food on the court, or crashing the boards ’til they shatter, Arch Rivals isn’t just basketball… it’s a basketbrawl!
