Disappointing

What a terrible port. I'm serious when I say this is the worst handheld baseball game I've ever played. I enjoy world series 95 on my game gear better than this. There is absolutely no depth, running [or pickoffs], no stats [my biggest whine] and no trades. Also, the AI is ridiculously easy. You'll be begging for some high heat to your head by the end of a 9 inning game.

it sucks

o.k. at first i was beyond excited when i heard that there was finally a baseball game coming out for the gba. i studied as much stuff as i could and i was pumped to go buy it. it finally came out and i did so. o man. i popped the game in and played an exhibition game. it looks great! and plays well too. but all i look for in a baseball video game is the option to trade players and keep stats. IT HAD NEITHER OF THOSE OPTIONS!! this was the only reason i wanted the game!! so for those of you looking to buy the game this is a thing you must remember. DONT BUY THE GAME IF YOU WANT TO HAVE ICHIRO ON YOUR TEAM ALONG WITH BONDS AND IT DOENST TRACK STATS SO BONDS CANT REACH 71!! i hated this game so much i took it back and am patiently waiting for another baseball game with these options to come out.

OK game but has a lot of glitches!

Bought this game thinking it would be the best baseball game for any handheld system. The graphics are stupendous, but what it lacks is AI. Once in awhile I'll play games where I hit a flyball and get out, then one of my guys on base runs around the bases and goes home without me telling him to. The computer lets my guy do that and it doesn't even count as a run. The AI of this game is poorest I've ever seen on any baseball game! Worse yet, it doesn't keep track of statistics!! I usually go back and play my Ken Griffey Jr. game for the original Game Boy! Not worth getting!

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!!

I am baseball fanatic and played virtually all the baseball games out there. By far, this is one of the worst games. Characters are so small that it looks like sticks moving around. No realism. There was some error in my game where the opposing pitcher walked my player, but my player stopped halfway towards the first base. Seems 3D0 worked on this for a while and just quit. Terrible job, get racing games for sports but not this one.

Great graphix and decent game play but......

The graphics are great...especially for the tiny screen that the GBA has. My major complaint is gameplay. I love baseball. The stats I don't care so much about. But simple things like a hit and run, stealing, performing a double switch (in your national league games) don't work on this game. Playing against the computer is interesting too. I played a 13 inning game where the closer for the computer team came in the 8th inning and pitched for five innings. Not a very realistic thing. Trading players so you can make up your own team would be nice as well. Graphics 5 stars. gameplay 1 star. Looks are nice, but gameplay is more important in my book.

This is a bare bones game, not much depth, including no stat memory, no ability to steal bases, and the AI is really easy. Very low replay factor.

DAMN THIS GAME WAS BAD

I REALLY WANTED A GAME FOR GBA AND WHEN I SAW THIS COMING OUT I THOUGHT OK LET'S TRY IT, BUT WHEN I GOT IT IT WAS HORRIBLE I COULDN'T TRACK STATS OR TRADE PLAYERS WHICH ARE 2 KEY ELEMENTS 2 THE GAME OF BASEBALL. JUST WAIT FOR ANOTHER BASEBALL GAME THIS IS A WASTE OF YOUR MONEY. I KNOW IT WAS A WASTE OF MINE.

Nice!

Over all I love (and I mean love ) this game. But the game is WAY
to easy! With one 1 inning game I lost 1-0 but after that I won every singel game. Here are some facts that makes the game lose 2
stars.
1. You can`t steal. I always leave runners stranded on base because if you get a fly out a runner can`t steal home cause they
are at 1st base, not 3rd.
2. Walks. If a runner gets 4 balls on him (known as a walk) he isn`t awarded 1st base.
3.(The last one.) Can`t get hit. If a ball hits a batter in the helmet the ball goes right through him. I would reccomend it to little kids who don`t know much about baseball.

I play this game on a Logitech Wingman joystick.
I have played the computer six times and lost five of them, some by lop-sided scores. The game seems to favor the computer players decidedly. The computer pitcher can throw fastballs, sweeping curves, etc., but my joystick pitcher does not seem to be able to throw much of a variety of pitches.
I admit I'm not a computer expert and maybe I'm doing something wrong, but it just seems the game definitely favors the computer. I play in a Pro mode. I would like a little more equality between the human and computer players. Also twice the game has crashed in the ninth inning of close games. It is fun to play, but I wouldn't rate it over 3 stars.
