What is your favorite BASEBALL game for the NES?

[Rob2600]

Legends of the Diamond is another good NES baseball game.

Now that I think about it, why did one home game console have so many baseball games developed for it?? There are at least twenty to choose from!

Base Wars.

Awesome fun, baseball mixed with robotic combat, and some awesome weapons to boot.

Baseball Stars hands down, Bases Loaded also a fave of mine.

For me, its a tie between Dusty Diamonds All-Star Softball and Baseball Stars. Dusty Diamonds was so much fun since you pick all of your team one by one, each with their own abilities and powers. And Baseball Stars, the create a player option was so awesome!!

The Bases Loaded games were my favorites but the R.B.I. games were also very fun to play.

And even more in Japan. That's why: Japan's obsession with baseball.

This was also an era when baseball was still neck and neck with football when it came to the American sports market. You had World Series involving small market teams like the Oakland A's and KC Royals that still did incredibly well ratings-wise back in the '80s. Doubt that would happen today

I have to go with Bad News Baseball. There's just something about the pink bunny umpires that reel me in.

I'm an R.B.I. Baseball man. It is simply a brilliant game that still holds up today- especially with a second player as mentioned numerous times above. I'd really love to find another R.B.I lover to play this game with.

Any and all fans of R.B.I. Baseball owe it to themselves to play the true sequels to the game, Pro Yakyuu - Family Stadium, that Namco only released in Japan. Tengen did not develop the original R.B.I.; they only published the brilliant game Namco developed, then they developed two sequels in North America that play nothing like the original. The Famicom's Pro Yakyuu Famista series keeps the spirit of the first alive and improves upon it. In later Pro Yakyuu - Family Stadium games you can jump and dive for the ball and you have the option to choose different interesting stadiums to play in. Wanna play in a giant aquarium? If so, '94 is your year. There is also a digitized super Japanese ump's voice ("Outtoo") throwing a little extra personality into the mix. The series, evidently as well loved in Japan as the original was here, kept rolling out sequels (there were nine games released for the Famicom) until 1994, which was the final year games were released for our NES.

We did get Super Batter Up for the SNES. Great dollar bin game to track down.

In the day, I was a Bases Loaded fan. I would've liked RBI more had they included my hometown Cincinnati Reds in the team lineup. But I now deeply love RBI Baseball and the wonders of the RBI Baseball editor...

Oh and Paste indeed rules

(though i do have a sneaking suspicion the attributes in the game's code do not correctly line up with the player statistics. I find that Bay hits way more home runs than Paste and Ford with 34 HRs almost never hits a home run)

Little League.

It's not even close.
