Well, they are just ahead of their time.

How have I never heard of this?!
SNES emulator, if you can't find it let me know I have it on my desktop. The story is so fucking good dumb. So fucking dumb in the best way. Gameplay is actually alright, like an old SNES RPG.
Here is the mood music. https://youtu.be/lWKQiZVBtu4?si=_hH1cn01OeJgcEKH
Edit: ahhhhhh I can't simp any harder for this game, just the plot gets me going.
"In 2041 "post-cyberpocalyptic Neo New York", Charles Barkley performs a powerful "Chaos Dunk" at a basketball game, inadvertently killing most of the people in attendance. As a result, basketball is outlawed and many basketball players are hunted down and killed."
It just gets crazier from there...
Amazing. I'm going to have to try this one of these days.
Shut Up and Jam Gaiden is not playable on a SNES emulator, sadly.
Am I misremembering? I swear that was how I played it....
Yes. It's made with Game Maker. Maybe you're thinking of the original game?

This is the developer's website. It's not an SNES ROM and it's perfectly legal to download. I believe they made it in RPGMaker.
Ok, THAT makes sense. Thanks!
