I remember he was in "Bulls versus Blazers" and, later, "NBA Live 2003" (during his Wizards comeback). Other than these two games, I don't remember seeing him at all. The Bulls roster would always have something like SG #99 or just "Player" as the last name for the player who represented MJ. I'm just curious. Can anyone please explain?

Jordan did not release the rights to the video game producers to use his name. That is why he was "in" the game but never really as Jordan. I know this to be true for the NBA Live Series. And then when he retired he allowed them to use his name on the All 90s Teams.

He was always in the games when he was in the league, but now he is picky of which games he starrs in for some bizarre reason. In the NBA Live series, that's why you dont ever see him on the 90's all-star team. The only game i can think of that he is in after he retired is NBA Street. Why he chooses that game over a regular basketball game... who knows.

Jordan was in the game. All those NBA video games I played, you had to unlock MJ. It was very easy, look for the cheat on the internet and unlock MJ.

what are you talking about........... go far enough back to NBA Jam to Nintendo and Sega- he is there.
at some point there may have been a copyright on the name Jordan... but it didnt start out that way

I dont think video gaming was as popular during his time
