ICE NBA Game Time Pro 8 Foot Length Generic Home Basketball

A real hardwood floor panel sits at the base. The arch above it adjusts from 87 inches to 101 inches tall.

Overview

The ICE NBA Game Time Pro is an 8-foot arcade basketball machine built by ICE (Innovative Concepts in Entertainment) in Buffalo, New York for home arcade use. It features a real hardwood floor, an officially licensed NBA graphics package, five distinct game modes, and support for up to four players. The top arch is removable and height-adjustable from 87 to 101 inches, making it compatible with standard 8-foot residential ceilings.

Key Features

Real Hardwood Floor

The playing surface is finished real hardwood, the same material used on a regulation basketball court. It sits at the base of the cabinet beneath the ball return lane, giving the machine a court-authentic look that distinguishes it from machines with painted or laminate floors.

Adjustable Removable Top Arch

The top arch detaches and the overall cabinet height adjusts from 87 inches to 101 inches. This lets the machine fit under a standard 8-foot (96-inch) residential ceiling without permanent modification to the room or the cabinet.

Powder-Coated 14-Gauge Steel Construction

The side cage is 14-gauge cold-rolled steel with a powder-coat finish. The chain net is also powder-coated steel. Both surfaces resist corrosion and handle repeated impacts from errant shots without deforming.

Five Game Modes

Arcade — Race the clock to score as many points as possible. Reach 75 to advance to round two; reach 100 to reach the third and final round.
Money Ball — Race the clock for basket points; money-sign targets on the backboard add bonus points (single sign = 5 pts, double sign = 10 pts).
PIG — Players take turns attempting shots. A miss earns a letter (P, I, G in sequence); three misses eliminates a player. Last player standing wins.
Last Shot — A three-second countdown timer per turn. Each player gets four shots per game; the goal is to score as close to zero remaining time as possible.
Fifth mode — A fifth gameplay option is included alongside the four formats above, giving groups an additional format to rotate through.

Officially Licensed NBA and Collegiate Graphics

The base configuration ships with an officially licensed NBA generic graphics package. An upgrade option lets you select cabinet graphics for any of the following 30 NBA teams: Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics, Charlotte Bobcats, Chicago Bulls, Cleveland Cavaliers, Dallas Mavericks, Denver Nuggets, Detroit Pistons, Golden State Warriors, Houston Rockets, Indiana Pacers, Los Angeles Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers, Memphis Grizzlies, Miami Heat, Milwaukee Bucks, Minnesota Timberwolves, New Jersey Nets, New Orleans Hornets, New York Knicks, Oklahoma City Thunder, Orlando Magic, Philadelphia 76ers, Phoenix Suns, Portland Trail Blazers, Sacramento Kings, San Antonio Spurs, Toronto Raptors, Utah Jazz, Washington Wizards. Collegiate graphics are also available, allowing the cabinet to carry a college team identity. Additionally, custom graphics can be created and applied, so the machine can carry a personal team logo or any original design. A licensed floor panel add-on featuring either the NBA generic logo or a selected team logo is available as a separate option.

LED Lighting and Slam Dunk Sound Effects

Onboard LED lighting illuminates the cabinet during play. The audio system includes slam dunk sound effects that trigger on made baskets, producing an audible response that carries across a game room.

How It Plays

Players shoot basketballs at the hoop, with the selected game mode determining whether they are chasing a clock, targeting bonus money-sign markers on the backboard, spelling out PIG against opponents, or timing each shot against a three-second countdown. Up to four players can compete simultaneously, and in PIG mode each player's letter count is tracked live on the display so anyone watching can follow who is still in the game. Slam dunk audio fires on every made basket, making scoring events audible from elsewhere in the room.

Specifications

Why Buyers Love It

Fits Under a Standard 8-Foot Ceiling

The removable top arch and height-adjustable frame (87 to 101 inches) let the NBA Game Time Pro fit in a room with an 8-foot ceiling — a common constraint in residential basements and bonus rooms. No structural modifications to the space are required.

Commercial-Grade Build in a Home-Market Package

ICE designed the Game Time Pro as a home-market version of the same hardware used in commercial arcade venues. The 14-gauge cold-rolled steel cage and powder-coated chain net are the same materials found on ICE's operator-grade machines — not a lighter-duty residential substitute.

Fully Personalized Graphics from Court to Cabinet

The cabinet ships in a licensed NBA generic configuration, and official team graphics are available for all 30 NBA franchises as well as collegiate teams. Custom graphics can also be created for a completely original look. A matching licensed floor panel is available as a separate add-on, allowing the entire machine — cabinet and floor — to carry a single team's or custom identity.

Five Structurally Different Formats

Arcade, Money Ball, PIG, Last Shot, and a fifth mode are structurally different game formats — solo time attack, bonus-target scoring, elimination-style competition, countdown play, and an additional variation. Switching between them changes what the next round tests, which keeps the machine in use across different group sizes and skill levels.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the NBA Game Time Pro fit in a room with an 8-foot ceiling?

Yes. The top arch is removable and the cabinet height adjusts from 87 inches to 101 inches. At its lowest adjustment, it clears a standard 96-inch (8-foot) ceiling with room to spare.

How many players can use the NBA Game Time Pro at once?

Up to four players can compete in a single game. Multiplayer is supported across all five game modes, including PIG, which tracks each player's letter count individually and eliminates players one at a time.

What ball size does the NBA Game Time Pro use?

The machine is available with either a 7-inch or 9-inch ball. Ball size is selected at the time of order.

Can I get the NBA Game Time Pro with my favorite team's graphics?

Yes. The base unit ships with a licensed NBA generic graphics package. Official cabinet graphics are available for all 30 NBA teams, and collegiate graphics are also an option. Custom graphics can be created as well. A matching licensed floor panel — in either NBA generic or a specific team logo — is available as a separate add-on.

Ideal Placement

The NBA Game Time Pro is designed for residential home arcades, game rooms, and finished basements where ceiling height is a limiting factor. Its 39-inch width fits through a standard interior doorway when the arch is removed, and the 99-inch depth requires a dedicated wall run of at least 8.5 feet. It also suits sports bars, hotel game rooms, and restaurant entertainment areas where an NBA-licensed visual presence fits the existing décor.
