    RBI Baseball 20 is a frustrating experience for anyone who tries to play it. The game suffers from problematic game mechanics and visuals. This game can't even be recommended as a good time waster, as many players will grow tired of it within a few hours. Unless players absolutely need their baseball fix, their money would be better spent on something other than RBI Baseball 20.

    I enjoy that game!!! The different game mode are limited but the most important, the game play is great and feel good. The defense feel right.I enjoy that game!!! The different game mode are limited but the most important, the game play is great and feel good. The defense feel right. Not perfect but really playable. That game is the best baseball option with MLB team liscence for Nintendo Switch. Full Review »

    Gave it an 8 considering this is a $30 dollar game designed to be an arcade game and not baseball simulation. I also bumped up the scoreGave it an 8 considering this is a $30 dollar game designed to be an arcade game and not baseball simulation. I also bumped up the score because this is the first time RBI made an enjoyable baseball game for a non playstation owner since they brought back this franchise.

    Good - Gameplay is fun, really enjoy the new controls. I like the camera angels when you time up a HR. Improved graphics. Legends Player Pools pre 93 and post 93 is cool. HR Derby plays good with new controls.

    Bad - Can only play one franchise at a time (wanted to create a legends team and current roster). It's arcade and not baseball simulation so very limited depth and can execute non realistic trades, still a lot of glitches with fielding though doesn't affect overall game play too much, no commentary, no budget in creating crowd (should have just made empty stadiums for year of the corona). No online play.

    Overall there is room for improvement but headed in the right direction. If they recycle the same game next year with no major improvements this game would be more of 6/7 but this years game exceeded expectations.
