They made some major changes this year, so I'm hoping for the best, especially since this is the only NFL game allowed by law to be made. |

Fucking RBI Baseball. Me and my brother would yell "SCUINCH-DOMS" every time there was an error. Good times.

I probably played 200 games of RBI Baseball in college. Only got beat twice. Once to a guy who currently works at ESPN and another time to a guy who's brother works at ESPN. The second guy beat me on a walk-off wallsie. Fuckin' ESPN.

Baseball Stars was the best NES game even if it didn't have real players.
I still have one working as well bobby. Beat the shit out of my nephew at Super Tecmo twice a few weeks back. That felt good.

I've been looking for Baseball stars for a long time now. I used to have it in middle school. I loved how you got money for wins and could improve your team. No baseball game in the past 15 years has come close to those 2.

Just found Baseball stars on Amazon. Tommy, to you remember baseball stars II at all? If I remember correctly, it had 4 different ballparks but you couldn't improve your team with money.

Why can't sports games today be as fun as the games back then? Have you tried playing a baseball game on the PS3 recently? It's complicated as shit.
