Sporting News Baseball

Didn't see this coming


Genre: sports - baseball

Publisher: Hudson Soft

Year: 1995

System: SNES


Gameplay Score: 3

Gameplay Notes:

You can even adjust the alignment of your defense to put on the shift. Wow View is slightly lower than most games so it's a little harder to gauge movement of pitches. The batter is an enormous sprite who covers a ton of the screen. Fast gameplay. Runners are lightning fast. If you don't throw to the base ASAP you will not get a force out, especially if the ball is hit to 3rd base or SS. One of the better controlling baseball games


Level Design Score: 5

Level Design Notes:

The most comprehensive set of modes in a 16 bit baseball game


Theme Score: 3

Theme Notes:

I have no idea who or what the Sporting News is. I never would've guessed this was a decent baseball game. MLBPA license

Kinda grainy

Good sound Dorky music that can be disabled


Overall Score: 68

Review ID: 523
