Michael Jordan in Chaos in the Windy City was released by Nintendo in 1994 for the Super NES. The game did not sell well and was named in the top ten worst video games in Nintendo Power magazine. It features Michael Jordan, though unlike the similarly themed Shaq-Fu, it is a 2D platformer along the lines of Mario.

[edit] Gameplay

The game played much like other 2D platformers of it's time, collecting keys and defeating enemies with a variety of different techniques. The player controls Michael Jordan on a quest to save the rest of the members of The Bulls, who have all been kidnapped. You attack enemies using different basketballs, each with its own ability. For example, the freeze ball can freeze the ground and create a slippery surface, the bomb ball makes a large explosion, and so on. You will have to find keys throughout the game which unlock different doors, as you try to rescue your teammates.
