Getting right down to it
there’s just something about the Super Mega Baseball series that taps into what
love and nostalgia I have for baseball as a sport, particularly in video game
form. While I could see where some sports fans could be irritated by the lack of
MLB teams and players for me it takes me back to the days of playing games on
the NES or in the arcade against friends, though obviously the degree of
complexity on all levels has appropriately increased. What then seals the deal,
and what impressed me so much about this title, is how scalable the experience
is in terms of depth and difficulty. If you just want to just kick around in
some exhibition games, great. A whole season? Sure. Manage a franchise including
all of the trades, potentials for injury hardships, and customizing just about
anything you can think of? Without the worries of a license it’s all available
to you. Throw in the ego system which will allow you to tune the difficulty up
or down incrementally as your skills grow and it can remain as easy or tough as
you choose. The statement that this is the best baseball title without question
on Switch may be easy for lack of any legitimate competition whatsoever but more
than that it is one of the best baseball games I’ve ever played, period.
