A title that could have been much better, but really cannot compare with either its other console platform counterparts, nor with some other GBA baseball games in terms of gameplay options.
-
Pocket GamesA so-so system that doesn't offer enough action to counter the lack of depth. [Summer 2003, p.49]
-
Nintendo PowerPitching and hitting play control are intuitive, but fielding control is sorely lacking. [Apr 2003, p.135]
-
The developer worked to get the looks and sounds of the console version on the GBA, but they didn't capture the gameplay.
-
This game was just a little too slow (though faster than most), pulled cheap tricks, and was lacking in most departments (no stats, no Homerun Derby, no All-Star Game) and too frustrating.
-
Cheat Code CentralIt lacks features and control. All you really do is make a few choices and let the game play it all out for you. It's like the battle system in an old-school RPG.
-
A major disappointment. It lacks the unpredictability and mayhem of the console versions, as well as most of the features that you'd expect to find in a traditional baseball game.
