The depth of rosters, stadiums, and game types is impressive but some things are missing that I would enjoy. Good game with great potential but some important flaws its kinda wierd, ads this game was ported over from japan. Stay away from it if your lookig for a truly hard core sim, though the carrer mode isnt bad. The pitching fielding and batting are all simple, and you know what its a great way to have fun with the kids and they can compete with you.Īnyway my self i would on a 1-10 scale give this an 8 for the fun it has gave on many a sunday afternoon.īuy this for a great fun afternnon of on serious baseball. this game is cartoonish, not a hard core baseball sim but really fun to play. When i got the game i decided to be my home town Royals, well let me not bore you with all my ok the royals arnt good but i love going to the games talk. Any way i saw a review for this game in a magazine and decided to giv it a try. I love Baseball, and i was looking for a game to kill time till the season startsand help cure the college football and NFL blues, not that i dont like football i just couldnt get into it this year, Im sure because my beloved chiefs never got it together. I have no ties to them but have found it to be a great site to find out what real gamers think about games before I buy or rent. You can also read many other reviews on this game at. As for the playability and the many different game play options, it ranks up there with any other sports game for the wii or baseball games on other systems. I think I would give this game a 8.5 out of 10 just because it is lacking in the graphics department. Then you can actually use the player to play games. The game has all the players you know and love and the announcer is not excessively annoying.Īnother cool feature is one that mixes an RPG style player development part of the game where you create and train a player as he comes up through the ranks from college (or high school I can't recall) on. If you want increased difficulty (ie aiming and timing for hitting and pitching) you can use the alternate controls (nunchuk for direction and the remote more like a traditional game pad). The interface works well with the remote and gives you the option of using the remote to swing the bat and pitch by actively swinging. ![]() Unlike MLB 2k08 in which you smack homeruns in every at bat with no name players, power pros is more realistic rewarding only good aim and timing. Sort of bucks the trend of the realistic looking sports games on other systems like xbox or PS3. The Vita version can also be downloaded from the Japanese PlayStation Network Store, though the purchase will require either a Japanese credit card or a Japanese PlayStation Network Points Card.The game makes up for in play what it lacks in graphics. The cost to import Japan's latest Power Pros game ranges from $50 to $80, depending on the system you choose and whether or not you want the slightly newer Ketteiban version, which includes roster and ratings updates for all the game's Nippon Professional Baseball teams. All three versions can be freely played on American consoles without any issues, as both Sony's hardware and Konami's software lack region protection. The site's first translation guide covers Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu 2012, which released in July 2012 for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita and PlayStation Portable. English-speaking baseball gamers will now be able to navigate through Power Pros' menus and change key gameplay settings without difficulty, as 95% of the series' text is written in Japanese text and Kanji characters. Earlier this afternoon, the owners of launched a new sister site,, which offers screen-by-screen translations for Konami's Japanese Power Pros baseball games.
