Everyone’s favourite Dungeons and Dragons-based Baseball title!
The sequel to Battletoads, Banpresto decided to take the series in a different direction: Battle Baseball plays much more like your average baseball game. The inclusion of traditional role-playing elements such as hit points, level, average, and homeruns, however, make this title exceptional.
Banpresto added these features just for show, however, as it’s impossible to actually hit the ball. Despite this inherent impossibility, pitching still takes a bit of skill because players must calculate whether or not they have enough mana in order to make their desired pitch.
That doesn’t make the game any less pointless and impossible, but it definitely gives hardcore fans a reason to keep coming back.
Slightly more enjoyable than taking a pitch in the head.
