NBA Live 95 brought a slightly more simulation-oriented approach to basketball on the Sega Genesis compared to the arcade-style titles like NBA Jam. Developed by Electronic Arts, it attempted to balance simulation elements with accessible gameplay. The US and European versions likely featured similar rosters and gameplay mechanics. While not as focused on outlandish dunks, NBA Live 95 provided a more realistic representation of basketball, yet it still maintained its accessibility for casual players.  Its importance lies in its introduction of a simulation-style alternative within the Genesis basketball game landscape.
