I got this game for just $4 off Amazon.com with high hopes for a Super Nintendo baseball game.Wow.Terrible isn't even a strong enough word to describe this mess.
This reminds me of so many movie video games which slap the name on their hoping kids would buy them but the actual game is horrible.
First off, the graphics on this game are just atrocious.Play a game like Super Bases Loaded, a VERY early release for the SNES, and you'll see just how superior a baseball game it is.
Another major problem:Because I believe Tecmo had the MLB rights back during this time, the only REAL player you get in the game is Ken Griffey Jr.Everyone else are a bunch of false names.That might work for you but it's a little misleading when you see Ken Griffey on the cover only to not see the players on your favorite team.
But what really just BREAKS this game is the actual gameplay.You literally cannot control your pitching outside of the speed.Making a ball curve?No way.Though the computer has no problem. :)Batting and fielding are just about as bad.As I mentioned in the title, you get a FAR better experience with games like Baseball and Baseball Stars for the originaly NES then you will ever get with this game.
If you want a much deeper baseball experience, I recommend MLB Power Pros for the PS2, it can be had for around $5-10 bucks, and trumps games like this easily.
For the SNES, Baseball Simulator 1.000 is pretty much the standard bearer on the system IMO for a baseball game.Super Bases Loaded also is a much better game.
Save your $4 and just pass on this one.You will be glad you did.
