What level hitting/pitching were you playing on and who were you hitting with?

[final fight cd]

first few rounds i was ripken by default because i didn't know how to select another player. pressing start is NOT the button you are supposed to push. also, in these few rounds i played at the slowest pitching.

once i learned not to push start and to push the C button, i've played as frank thomas, belle, griffey, etc. and i ramped the pitching up to max speed.

I think 495 may be the max FFCD.

On All Star pitching and Rookie hitting:

Hit 12 with Frank Thomas - longest was 486
Hit 10 with Ken Griffey Jr - longest was 480
Hit 3 with Joe Carter - longest was 474

I tried to keep it to guys not tied to steroids and also guys that ruined the 1993 World Series for me.

Must not let thread finish with less posts than Populous....we'll never get another sports game for Together Retro!

Any other HR derby thoughts or WSB '95 thoughts or heck - baseball in general?

I'm sure we will. We did Punch-Out!! and NBA Jam in the past. I really wanted to play this month, but I just couldn't seem to get it working anytime I tried.

To be fair, I think games like Punch-Out and NBA Jam kinda lend themselves to Together Retro more, mainly because the arcadey gameplay makes it more universal than a (fairly) serious baseball game.

I played a game on the 32X and plan to play the Saturn and Genesis ports as well before the month is out. I had thought about playing a run through the playoffs, but I don't have the patience for it this month.

The game is still one of the best of the era, but it hasn't aged exceptionally well beyond the pitching mechanics. Still, I am glad to be playing it as it represents something of a pinnacle of 2D baseball games.

Would you happen to be interested in trading/selling that 32x version?

Sorry, it is part of my complete 32X collection.
