Backyard Basketball is part of the long-running Backyard Sports series, which since the late 90s offered childlike, lighthearted versions of major sports, with rosters of neighborhood kids instead of professional stars. The DS version brings that accessible arcade basketball to the handheld.
It's a title built for a very young audience, heir to a franchise that at the time was an entry point into sports for many kids in the United States, though this edition arrived in the saga's later, less remembered stretch.
