'Simulation Pro Yakyuu'

[SFC] [JAPAN] [MAGAZINE] [1995]

"In creating the game, we invited Atsuya Furuta of the Tokyo Yakult Swallows baseball team to act as supervisor, and in addition to providing and analyzing data, he also gave us valuable advice on the subtle tactics between the batter and the battery. By incorporating all of this information, we were able to faithfully recreate the subtle nuances of the games that take place in actual professional baseball games. This software features 384 players from all 12 teams in the Central and Pacific Leagues as of February 28, 1995. Of course, all of them appear under their real names. Based on Furuta's analysis, the registered players' personalities and abilities are realistically represented, including batters' preferred trajectories and batted ball characteristics, and pitchers' pitching patterns and pitching patterns." ~Ad caption, based on machine translation
