Harlem Globetrotters is a sports video game published by GameTek for MS-DOS compatible operating systems in 1990 and the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1991. The player controls the Harlem Globetrotters basketball team.[2] A Sega Genesis conversion was planned but never released.[3]

Gameplay

Unlike most other basketball video games, there is only an exhibition mode in this game where the player can play as either the Harlem Globetrotters or their long-time rivals, the Washington Generals. The player can even pull down the referee's pants or trip the ref when a free throw has been called when playing as the Harlem Globetrotters.[2]
