Pro Yakyuu Spirits 2015 is Coming to the PS3 and Vita This Spring

Would Konami even release this game on an Xbox if it were to release it on the current consoles? I feel it would only be on the PS4, so even then, Xbox gamers would lose out on baseball unfortunately.

Konami tried bringing MLB Bobblehead Pros to the Xbox 360 in the summer of 2011, but nobody in America bought the game. It was one of the lowest-selling XBLA games of all-time and was delisted from the marketplace a year and a half after its release.

Been over 7 or 8 years since I've posted on these forums, lol.

Anyway, someone above mentioned that there was a previous version of the series that had english text. Which version was that?

I think 4 and 5 had some English text in the menus but you really don't need it. Some modes are fairly hard to play unless you understand Japanese but the translation work by Spirits Translation is first rate.

Maybe they need to try it without the lame bobblehead gimmick? lol

I just can't get past the language barrier (even with the great translation work available). Just too much of a hassle for me. I would love if they made a western version of this game! For now, I'll stick with The Show.

I agree. I have PYS 2013 and love it, but I can't just memorize things here and there. I'd rather learn the language. I can't do franchise with all those hassles, man.

I must say, this game reminds me of MVP baseball. Looks good on YouTube.

This game plays nothing like MVP. However, I do seem to remember watching some gameplay trailer of this other Japanese game that was either coming out or came out, and that one seemed to feel exactly like MVP from the looks of it. I might dig around later and find that one for you, but I'm sure there's a thread in this very subtopic on that game.

That's because that was a terrible game, and it didn't much represent what PYS or Power Pros does correctly whatsoever.

Also, they didn't try the PSN crowd. I still would have bought it, though I would have been very disappointed in it.

Once this makes it's way to the PS4 I'll buy it for sure, language barrier or not

It's ps3 graphics. Darn good ones too I might add. Besides game play trumps graphics any day, at least for me.

Animations, presentation,graphics, batting/pitching interface...this game surpasses any baseball game out ps4 included. This is an easy buy!

I was being sarcastic, and more so just saddened that this won't be on PS4.

But yes, these games look good.

It looks amazing as usual. Too bad it isn't coming out for the PS4. Can't see myself spending $60+ on a PS3 game anymore

Re: Pro Yakyuu Spirits 2015 is Coming to the PS3 and Vita This Spring

Yeah, I was really hoping that they released on PS4 this year. Last year was the first time I didn't pick it up since PYS 5 Kanzenban... I was holding out for a possible later release of PYS 2014 on PS4; which unfortunately still hasn't happened.

I may eventually pick it up though. I'm a sucker for baseball
