Classic baseball games

[indigence]

Clutch hitter was the first baseball video game I played. I believe it was ahead of its time. This is the arcade version. I also had it for Game Gear. It came out in 1991.

I go way back with these, but this game (not all that long ago) I just loved. Notice the fielding animation of the RFer when he fields the ball and throws it in. Loved the game.
Bought a Gamecube just for it.

One more. Bought the Sega Saturn for this one. Seems I bought many a system just for the baseball games.

By the way. Never heard of CLUTCH HITTER, but it doesn't look like a half bad game for the day.

Re: Clasic baseball games

Good call Jim. I always wanted that game. But I didn't want to buy the Saturn. And the Gamecube one was a good game too. Clutch Hitter was a real good game. I played that at the arcade. I like Sports Talk Baseball. But my all time favorite is either HardBall 3 or Bases Loaded.

Agreed. The PC version that I had (Tony LaRussa 3) was even better.

Re: Clasic baseball games

Thanks Jim. That was my game. Had blast and still have the stats for that game at my grandma's house. It was so much fun. I think next to Bases Loaded and Hard Ball 3, it would have to be RBI for the Nintendo. Or a another game I had a blast with was Tommy L Baseball for Sega. Coft was beast in that game. I think it was either Will Clark or Mitchell. I can't remember. The very first Triple Play for PS1, was a great game too. It didn't have the real players or teams if I correct?

YES!YES!

Wow I played this game soo much. So much my mom actually took the game away, and I never ever saw it again. I was pissed.

What I remember, was playing a full season, and that it had stat tracking throughout

Re: Clasic baseball games

I remember the text in all the early EA Sports titles made it feel like you were playing an RPG game.

Re: Clasic baseball games

I think this was the first "next generation" graphics to hit baseball. I remember being "wowed" by the graphics in this game.
