Well that was easier than expected! Looks like there was another version of that cabinet with a weird flight stick-like shifter that has both the trigger and turbo button but I've never seen that one in the flesh.
Thanks! That might be it, I do remember it having simpler graphics and being more stationary. Maybe I just didn't know how to move the characters haha.
Thanks! It was indeed Rampage, pretty big game, iirc on 2 disks haha.
Ahh ok. Thanks! Might have to put it on the list of games to check out at some point :)
Oh wow, I think that's it, thanks! I've been trying to figure out what game it was for years now. I used to love that game as a child. I want to play it again.
Sorry for the double post.
This is going to sound weird but are you sure it was a basketball game? Since I couldn't find anything else resembling the game you're describing, I thought I'd search through all the emulated arcade sports games from that period.
I found this game called Heavy Smash (1993), which is a handball sports game, but it closely resembles what you're describing. The final match is on a space station I believe. Also a curious thing is that the European version of the game has the Korean team replaced by a Spanish team (actually, it's just the flag, the characters are the same) while the Asian and Japanese versions have a Korean team.
I remember in Companions of Xanth you have to solve a puzzle set by the Com-Pewter (ah, a Piers Anthony pun, with all the subtlety and elegance of a sledgehammer to the groin), which required adding a letter to a word, then scrambling it to get the answer to the puzzle, several times over - and the final puzzle you don't have the letter tile, so you had to use the tee instead (i.e. as a T),
