Batter up!

if you like baseball,this is a no brainer!immediate download!
This game sucks. I'm still waiting for Baseball Stars 2 for the NES. Classic!
Eh. You can't even turn a triple play in this game. There were 5 sequels for this in Japan for the Pc-engine- all better than this one.
Not the best game. I'd rather have Super Baseball Simulator 1.000 on SNES. If you want some good TG sports games, wait for TV Sports Football and World Court Tennis. The tennis game had an RPG element to it, which was flat out awesome.
the best baseball game is super batter up for snes.i have sbs 1000 and i think is good but not great.this tg16 version of baseball looks better... (:
The japanese Power League sequels are much better- You can't turn a triple play in this game.
Are you supposed to be able to turn frequent triple plays? I LOVE this game probably because it's so simple. It would be nice to see Baseball Stars 2 and Super Baseball Simulator released too.
Easy Game, pitched a perfect game against the Turbo Tigers, nothing but strikes...
Have this one for my TurboGrafx. My best friend and I used to rent it on occasion. It got us to saying "The Stars" in the same way that the guys on Saturday Night Live said, "The Bears." If you know the skit, you know what I'm talking about.
I like how the ball zooms in and you can see the stitching and writing on it when you hit a high pop fly or a big home run. Nice graphical touch. Also think it's interesting when you score a run your teammates are hanging out of your dugout waving flags... yeah, that happens in real life... but then, I've never watched baseball in Japan.
