Gameplay edit

 
The batter is waiting for the pitcher to make his delivery.

The player becomes the coach as the individual players are not directly controlled.[1] Instead, commands are given for pitching and batting; which may or may not be obeyed depending on the situation.[4] The multiplayer mode is text-only while the single-player game has all the graphics in addition to the text.[2] Thirty different teams are available in this game; with options ranging from actual Nippon Professional Baseball teams to little league baseball teams and even a team of professional wrestlers.

Reception edit

On release, Famitsu magazine scored the game a 26 out of 40.[5]
