Rating: - It's cartoon baseball
I spent the entire summer of 1994 coaching baseball, playing baseball, and when the sun went down, I played Griffey Ball with my friends.
This game is totally unrealistic, which makes it so much more fun. The bullets that outfielders can throw are just amazing. When playing defense, all you have to do is dive from about 20 feet away, and you will find the ball in your mitt.
My buddies and I played a World Series and we got to game 7. Imagine this happening in real life: Series is tied 3-3. Go to the bottom of the ninth, score 3-2 with the home team trailing. Home team has a runner on second with two outs. Pitch is on the way, and it's belted deep to left-center field. If the ball goes out, the home team wins the series. My buddy runs his center fielder over, climbs the wall and snags the series winning walk-off homerun and in the process wins the game for his own team. I guarantee that will never happen in real life. And that is why Griffey Ball is not baseball, but cartoon baseball.
Rating: - where would we be without this game?
Read that title, and do some soul searching to find the answer we all seek. Where would we be without Ken Griffey Jr. baseball for SNES? I'll let you ponder that for a while. I'll tell you where we'd be:
1. We'd be deprived of hours upon hours of home run derby with classic hitters such as Can O'corn, Nick Noheart, and Barny Tater.
2. We'd be missing out on right fielders throwing absolute bullets from the fence to gun the fool who thought he could score.
3. We wouldn't understand what good music is, I mean, this soundtrack is unbeatable.
4. We wouldn't know that it was humanly possible to hit a 575 foot home run.
5. We've all learned you can never think of messing with a pickle because all infielders run a 2.4 40 yard dash (lightning speed)
6. There's the fact that every pitcher throws about 105 mph, more or less.
Basically, our lives would be dull and meaningless. We would know nothing of the true sport of baseball and how silly of a game it can be.
On the more serious side, this game is a classic, it has provided hours upon hours of fun for the young and old. It started a baseball revolution. Your Super Nintendo collection is incomplete without Ken Griffey Jr. Baseball. Play, laugh, learn, love...and stop reading my review it is numbing your mind.
Rating: - ONE OF THE BEST BASEBALL GAMES EVER.
YOU WIN OR YOU LOSE IN THIS GAME IT IS GREAT.I LIKE NEWSPAPER IN IT WITH SAYING SHUTOUT,THEY WIN 4 TO 1.PS WHAT MAKES THIS GAME IS THE ALL STAR GAME AND THE WORLD SERIES.
Rating: - A good baseball game.
Even though I got this game about 7 years ago, it is a decent baseball game. I never made it through an entire 162 game season because I didn't have that much time on my hands but the game never got boring to me. I really liked the home run derby in this game even though you only got to select from one of 6 characters which 4 of them were weak and probably not used anyways.
- It's cartoon baseball
- A good baseball game.
