10 Classic Video Games Hidden In Other Games As Easter Eggs

3. Tank In NBA Jam

What have tank warfare and basketball got in common? Nothing really, but that didn€™t stop Midway from combining the two in the arcade version of NBA Jam. The hidden tank game isn€™t the easiest to access, however. How To Find It First players must be able to turn off the arcade cabinet using the switch at the back. Then, once the machine is powering back up, player one needs to hold up on the joystick and press down all the buttons, while player two must hold down and press all of theirs. This immediately throws the player into 3D shooting game where you face off against wire frame tanks. Very hard to stumble across, very unexpected. The game is a little disorientating and once you lose you are sent straight back to NBA Jam, leaving you wondering whether the whole thing actually happened at all.
