@Onion This was because Culture Brain fixed too many bugs that actually made the game playable. For instance, in the NES version you could pitch in such a way that you could always get a strike by curving the ball just enough to go across the strike zone but it would register to the AI as a ball. As your pitcher got tired it became harder to pull the bug off.
However, if you were playing a season in the NES version you had to sit through the gruelingly long scoreboard to determine who won a game, which was, thankfully, sped up on the SNES. Still...kinda minor.
I've never been a very good baseball game player and the above glitch/bug actually kept me interested in the game for some time before my thumb hurt too much from doing the pitching glitch I mentioned previously. Yeah, I could just get better with baseball, but, well, I stink. Not matter how hard I try to be lazy about it and have the darn games lawnmower parent for me, they just won't! Shame on game developers back in the day making games hard and not giving me my Stanley Cup for winning the Superbowl in baseball games. ;>
