==Ports and related releases== The game was ported to the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] in September 1987, which was later released in Japan in Disk Card format for the [[Family Computer Disk System]] under the title of '''''Exciting Basketball'''''. The NES version features 5-on-5 action on a horizontally scrolling court, four different teams ([[Boston Celtics|Boston Frogs]], [[New York Knicks|New York Eagles]], [[Chicago Bulls|Chicago Ox]], [[Los Angeles Lakers|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 scene]]s, which depicted a mid-air player completing a [[slam dunk]], and one of the first to use [[Speech communication|speech]], though in a limited quantity (such as announcing the game title, the game's beginning [[jump ball]], and some foul calls)."[[The Star-Spangled Banner]]" in this version was slightly altered, while it was being played in a cut scene depicting the crowd entering the stadium before the menu pops up. The NES version was ported to the [[Wii]]'s [[Virtual Console]] in [[Europe]] on November 16, 2007, and in [[North America]] on November 26, 2007. In 1990, the game was ported to three home computers: the [[Commodore 64]], the [[Commodore Amiga]] and [[MS-DOS]] operated [[personal computer|PC]]s. In 1991, a [[Game Boy]] version was released titled '''''Double Dribble 5-on-5'''''. A Genesis version was released in 1994 titled '''''Double Dribble: Playoff Edition''''' ('''''Hyperdunk''''' in Japan and Europe).
