Vids of Retro Mode at PAX

Filmed horribly and for only seconds at a time. Almost annoying to watch, but desperate for any footage I suppose:

Re: Vids of Retro Mode at PAX

I was at Pax and played a full game. It was fun. The hitting and pitching def feel like an old school RBI or Bases Loaded game. 3 pitch speeds, move it in and out. One button to swing one to bunt. Check swings are in.

When you hit start to make a substitution even the menus look old school which is great. Once the ball is hit the fielders seem to move like they would in the regular game. Throwing is X and towards the base.

Game lasted about 20 minutes which was great. I honestly can't seem myself playing this Online a lot. But if you have a couple friends over it will be awesome. Way better than having to wait 60 min for your turn.

Retro is going to be awesome. I never been to Pax before and I don't think I'll ever get to one, way too packed for me.

I was actually just as interested in what was on the next TV over in the first vid (GT Sport).

Unless you like REALLY hate crowds it's not that bad in Boston. Sure you can get stuck waiting on a big 2-3 hour line for some of the biggest stuff but MS/Sony/Nintendo always have areas set up like the one you saw in the video. Area with a couple dozen gaming stations with 10 or so games. Usually a mix of recently released and unreleased stuff. Those areas you just go stand behind what you want to play and wait your turn. Takes 10 min at the most. Same with the Indie game area which is huge. Friday we played 3 games cause we waited on a lot of lines. Saturday I think we played around 20 because we stayed away from the major games displays. All depends how you wanna tackle it.
