Anybody here play Tony Larussa Baseball on the Genesis? That was the first baseball game I played that was more of a true simulation experience. I appreciated all the stats it allowed for.
I did not care for that game
Im curious what didn't you like about it?
That was the first game that had the flyball shadow that showed how high/where the ball path was, as well as wind influencing flight path of the ball. Now every baseball game has those, but it was innovation at the time. I also liked how it let you choose to play in, shallow, deep, shift, and all the defensive alignments that other games didnt.

I do not know why, I remember not playing it as much as I did other baseball games.

Best game ever. I have access to a Super NES and we still play it. Lovely Ladies, pitching underhand? I mean... you can't get better than that.

The original RBI Baseball on NES was video game gold! Buddies and I used to play that all the time!! George Bell and Jose Canseco were beasts!!
St Louis was the fastest team on that game.
Vince Colmean and Ozzie were lightning!

Obviously, there are improvements to be made and things to refine with The Show, but I remember how excited I was to finally get this game (I think I was 9 by the time I was lucky enough to get my hands on it). There were nine players on defense! And it talked!

My first baseball video game was Triple Play 96 for the Sega Genesis. Ken Griffey Jr. was an automatic home run every at bat.
