If you want to go down memory lane and don't have your old NES check this site out. The button scheme is weird but it's fun anyway.

I don't remember RC MVP for NES or any other 8 bit system.....I do remember it for Genesis and SNES....I guess I missed out?!?

It was on the NES as well. I remember renting it from Blockbuster video.

You know ....the other day I was playing Bases Loaded and realized some of the batters had different batting stances than I remembered and I was talking to my brother about it and he reminded me that we played both US and Japan versions of the game......so I DL'd the Japanese version (Moero! Pro Yakyu {black}) and realized they did have different batting stances and models.....in the Japanese version Paste looks more like a slugger.....such memories.

I'd have to put Bases Loaded II at the top of my list because of one feature it had that no other game has ever really done and that is the biorhythms. Other games have come up with similar ideas but nothing as straight forward as that. Plus, for it's day the game played a great game of ball. I remember having tournaments on it, me, my dad and my dad's friend. Of course, me being younger and having quicker reactions I kicked their asses routinely. Now being older myself, I realize what they were going through. lol

Baseball Stars was cool in a way but the fielding was a big drawback for me. The fact that you couldn't make a throw from third to first without bouncing it drove me nuts.
