We have just posted a new regular feature called TJ's Time Machine. Love it? Hate it? Let us know.

"Welcome to TJ's Time Machine, a new regular feature here at Operation Sports. Join TJ Cutini as he takes you back for a look at classic sports titles spanning the last three decades of gaming history.

TJ's Time Machine

As I sat and watched so many historic milestones being reached this week in baseball, I got a bit nostalgic. I suppose every baseball fan does a little bit of reminiscing whenever a record falls. But my nostalgia wasn’t so much about the baseball I was watching on my television. It was about the baseball I could control on my television so many years ago. I’m talking about one of the greatest baseball games to ever grace any console. I’m talking Baseball Stars."

My favorite sports game as a kid by far. I'd make all kinds of different teams. Using comic book characters, Peanuts characters, friends, etc. I remember you got tons of money for beating the Lovely Ladies, since the stands would be packed (imagine that, a baseball game almost 20 years old with dynamic crowds!). Such an amazing game, and when/if it's released on Wii's VC, I'll be playing it for months all over again. Great article TJ!

Yeah, I created the kids from the neighborhood and friends from school. Loved how it kept track of stats. Ahhh...the memories...

One of the best games of my childhood.

Great article. Really brought back some memories. I used to create my friends too. Loved the stat tracking and stuff. Great game.

Love the feature!! Can't wait to see what other games he's gonna do!

My cousin and I would do a fantasy draft of real major league players, then create teams on Baseball Stars with them on it. Good times.

Hoping for this to come out for XBL!! Then I won't have to buy MLB 2k8.

I am hoping that someday this will be out on virtual console for the Wii.

I loved playing this game when I was younger. Had the whole neighborhood kids recreated on my team. This game is a classic.
