NBA Hoops Basketball Arcade Game
Shipping & Delivery
Overview
NBA Hoops is ICE's full-height arcade basketball cabinet — built around new LED lighting effects, a basketball court-themed ramp, real basketballs, and a redesigned cabinet that carries the upgrades introduced across the modern ICE basketball lineup. The cabinet is officially licensed by the NBA and ships with custom marquee options for any of the 30 NBA teams.
Multiple NBA Hoops cabinets link together for multiplayer competitions — a meaningful configuration at FECs running tournament events. Hoop heights are adjustable across 9'6", 9'4.5", and 9'2.5" — letting operators tune the difficulty curve to the venue audience.

Construction
Cabinet marquees are available for any of the 30 NBA teams. The marquee customization is officially licensed — meaningful at venues where guest engagement depends on local team branding.
Multiple NBA Hoops cabinets link together for head-to-head and tournament-style multiplayer competitions. The configuration is purpose-built for FEC events and league play.
Hoop height is adjustable across 9'6", 9'4.5", and 9'2.5". The flexibility lets operators tune the difficulty curve to the venue audience — lower for kid-focused locations, higher for adult competitive venues.
The shooting ramp is themed as a basketball court rather than the generic ramp surface of legacy cabinets. The visual detail meaningfully improves the cabinet's read on a venue floor.
The cabinet uses real basketballs rather than smaller arcade-specific balls. The decision affects both feel and visual authenticity — real basketballs make the cabinet read as a serious sports experience.
The cabinet ships with a new sound package — including slam-dunk effects and court-play ambient audio. The audio is meaningfully more produced than legacy NBA Hoops generations.
Buyer's Guide
NBA Hoops is the full-height NBA-licensed cabinet — 120 inches tall installed. Buyers with ceiling clearance limitations (under 10 feet) should specify NBA GameTime instead, which lowers to 96 inches with the removable top arch.
Marquee customization for 30 NBA teams is officially licensed. Operators near a specific NBA franchise see meaningfully higher per-game spend with team-branded cabinets — material in NBA city venues.
Multi-unit linking for tournament play is the cabinet's strongest commercial argument. FECs running league-style basketball nights or tournament events see materially higher per-cabinet revenue when cabinets are linked.
Cabinet weight is 750 lb installed. Plan two-person delivery, liftgate or dock unloading, and confirm floor loading rating at the install location.
