5.0 out of 5 stars Simple & fun, September 2, 2007

This review is from: Tecmo Baseball (Video Game)
Considering this game was released almost 20 years ago it holds up well for a baseball game. While it lacks the bells and whistles of career mode & stat tracking that the 2k baseball series has, it compensates by being....well....fun.

Take the reins of your team and guide them against each of the other teams in your league. After, compete in one last game against a team in the opposing league.

While there is no MLB of MLBPA license, real MLB cities are represented, along with players that reflect the teams of the time. If memory serves me correctly, you could trace the Tecmo players to parallel MLBers of the time.

Graphics still look good today...in the eyes of this NES fan anyway (I received my NES for Christmas in 1988 as a lad of 7). When the ball is in play, the graphics look similar to Nintendo's original "Baseball." However, the pitcher/batter interface provides excellent 8 bit graphics.

Expect a high scoring affair, and don't get too frustrated when your opponent smacks numerous homers. In all the games I played as a child, I never tossed a no-hitter. Darn Clay Buchholz of the Boston Red Sox for showing me up.

Take a blast of nostalgia and pick this game up. How many NES consoles still even work? Mine died from overuse over a decade ago. Boy that was a sad day...
