R.B.I. Baseball is a game that isn't sure of what it wants to be. It incorporates some elements of both retro and modern titles, but rather than fusing successful elements of both eras, R.B.I. falls flat. Extremely dated visuals, poor presentation, absence of online modes, bad animation and overall lack of polish make for a game that we simply can't recommend, even to hardcore baseball fans. Vote with your wallet and let Major League Baseball know you want a better game before giving them your hard earned cash.

I'm being awfully generous with my score for R.B.I. Baseball 2017, because at the time it released, it was the only Major League Baseball game on the Nintendo Switch. Today, we have the vastly superior MLB The Show, so you should probably play that instead. Or, for a much better pure baseball experience, try Super Mega Baseball 4.
