Yep, more handheld baseball for your portable pleasure, and this one really looks like it will be a great game.

It looks really good on the GameCube, and it looks really nice on the GBA. Players are nice and big, and everything is easy to see. You can also quite easily see the strike zone, which is enormous. It appears this was done to speed up the games, considering that the pitching is pin-point accurate, and a player would waste a pitch if it were a ball. This almost turns it into an arcade game, since batters should be able to hit every pitch thrown at them.

Batting, however, is pretty smart for a handheld game. A wedge-shaped cursor in the shape of a bat's sweet spot is displayed in the batter's box, and the batter must both time the ball crossing the plate and get their batting icon in the path of the ball to make good contact. The size of this wedge depends on the batting average of the player, so Barry Bonds would have a much larger hitting area to work with than a pitcher would.

Acclaim basically got made the game exactly as it should be on a handheld. Look out for this one to be one of the better baseball games out for the GBA.
