if we are going way back lets go Ken Griffey Jr's Winning Run on SNES
Way back is Colecovision, son. SNES is like “the new thing”.
thanks dad ?
SNES is still 25 yrs old we dont have to go back to the stone age here "yeah back in my day we had no baseball, we just had a big stone wheel"
Was talking about NES, 35 years old. And I said nothing about a stone wheel. Be nice.
if you've been reading the whole chain everyone has been nice this is a great thread

I did, and yes you came off snarky.

Little League World Series: Championship Series on NES is still one of the best Baseball games I've played.
Remember how nasty Chinese Tai pe was?? Bunch of fast asians with some short fat ramen bowl power hitters?? Lol Gameplay was no joke and smooth.Especially for then!!!
They were certainly a top team. I always felt Team Canada was the best team with the amount of Power Hitters in their lineup. They had a lot of speed as well as their fielders all had great arms.
Usually when I played with friends we had to ban Canada from being selected for a more competitive game.

It’s truly amazing how good SNK baseball stars is

Whole post and thread made me smile.Deff right about Canada though.. Look young and feel young..You too eh?? (LameO Canada reference for the tykes)

Shout out to the people that made technology better. Not really a case for how this game is any less terrible.
The looks is the only redeeming quality of the game and that probably has nothing to do with anybody working on the game now.

I used to play every baseball game from my cousins Atari, to my friends Colecovision, through all the NES iterations, and Sega games. My favorites would probably be
Bases Loaded (I had a notebook that I kept stats for the players for multiple seasons. Utah with Agua, Lemon, and Moran at the plate, and Quinta closing out games)
Tony Larussa baseball (bring back that fielding!)
Hardball IV (I think?) (It had the ability to alter players, uniforms, and attributes.) -
Ken Griffey Jr. on the N64 is the GOAT

I kid you not, I’m the manger of the Yankees in that game ...

.
Peter and Albert were huge HR threats and then you could sub in Mickey and Floyd to give your team even more power.I also forgot their pitcher was also Skill 5 so they were great top to bottom.

"toke" indeed!!!! I think we appreciate these games more than most; even with all their flaws and imperfections, they're pretty cool compared what WE saw. First played Pong in 77', football in 93', and baseball in 96'! -
Wow you mean no online and no card collecting and no experience collecting....like before they just actually played baseball?..wow, unheard of

First played Pong in 77', football in 93', and baseball in 96'This game is nuts.For now even. Flaws are minimal IMO, I know the real game well.HS baseball and football, semi pro football after..Nice in baseball as well. Started 1B for FDR HS Brooklyn NY 1995 to 1998 hitting the finals 2 of 3 Years. Lost 2 times to Tottenville Staten Island who recruits foreign and out of state players. MLB connections from that coach as well as scouts out the wazoo. Jason Marquis was my Kryptonite.Name might sound familiar.MLB Braves. Nasty. At that level as well.Injuries..This game nails alot down to variable strike zones from HP umps. Love it.Launch angles are big also..They cry perfect perfect but hit dead center level swing..They tight they hit it at someone. Came along way from OG RBI and Sprts Talk for Genesis. OG NES had that trash baseball game..1st one for NES i believe.Real players but trash even for then.I played 17 and 18 at my boys spot Gave up on systems and games.No.time. Until July 4th last year ..[censored] faced had a little tourney with my fellas. System next day and 19.Straight to online to get washed. Learned quick.That MLB for PS2 same kids thought I always cheated online.Wouldnt lose.Even to.strangers..I get "in my bag" with baseball.Fav sport but pursued football cause odds are better for for going to school to be scouted further or even going pro for a cup of coffee even..All that to say this game is nasty.Bugs are minor even compared to AAA powerhouse modern games..Mad cause they trash for the most part.

Love my cajun people!! Might not hear this ever from a real NYC head but one of the few places I would move out of state to is Louisiana for sure. Love everything about it and is my home away from home. Being raised during crack era NYC Brooklyn to be exact is that nothing but the tea is sweet down there.At the same time the love is real if the respect is given.Same up.top over here
