This was a baseball sim that was deeper than it had any right to be. I felt so good when I got all the player cards, and I really enjoyed the Success mode where you made your own player. Such a clever twist for a "My Player" mode that I'm kinda sad other baseball games haven't really come close to trying.

great multiplayer game and the rpg story mode is great. do not play as the red sox or ill kick your ass

This is a better visual novel than some visual novels I've played. Extremely fun game that is criminally underlooked. Success mode alone makes this worth checking out, even if you don't really have any interest in baseball. It's a shame we only got two of these outside of Japan.

Also Marvin is the GOAT

sure, the gameplay's a little unrealistic, the commentary's buggy, and the season mode leaves a lot to be desired. i don't care. you have to play this for success mode: a persona-inspired take on nba 2k's myplayer mode with endless replayability. it doesn't hurt that the graphics are adorable and the stadiums are faithfully reproduced. 07 is slightly superior to its successor, imo, but both are great
