The BEST baseball game ever, for those who remember, was the Intellivision Baseball.

 

That is the one where the ump would yell "YOOOOUUUUUUURE OOOOUUTTTTT!"

I wasted weeks of my young life playing that game – damn those disc controllers hurt your thumbs!

 

IIRC, you could only hit ground balls on that though, unless they were out of the park. You could catch a ball at the track and you still had to throw the runner out at first (those outfielders had arms like cannons :P ), but that same ball would be a homerun if you didn't catch it. :bang

 

The Intellivision game was so much better than the crap-tacular Atari baseball that was out at the time – the one that only had three fielders who all moved in unison when you moved the joystick.

 

The baseball game is one of the 20 or so games in the Intellivision handset you can buy now – I got it for my 5-year old (or so he thinks). The problem is that the game doesn't play well because the controller is a Nintendo style joystick-Abutton-Bbutton dealie and without the kaypads of the original Intellivision controllers it's impossible to select the fielders you want to control.

 

I still kick ass on that Astrosmash game though. :P

Nintendo's Baseball Stars was the bomb!

I remember the code you could use to hit a HR with Griffey every time, that was awesome
