Lago | 220 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 So I just got finished watching Moneyball and I would like to play a game that focuses on managing a sports team. What recommendations you got? Systems I have access to at the moment in order of preference Switch, PS3, PS4, PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PII | 1,885 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I'm not really sure what the extant of team management is in "Baseball Stars", but it's been on my 'to play' list for a while even though I don't play many sports games, because it's supposed to be a sort of cross between a sports game and an RPG. Apparently there is a lot of buying, selling, trading of players and so on as the season progresses. A lot of people consider it to be the best baseball game on the NES. The cart has a battery save. Not sure if you can download it onto the Switch or not... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 4,933 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 It's not, but you can play it on PC using any NES emulator and the ROMS these days seem to somehow not get removed from the web archive so that's not going to be a problem locating it. Baseball Stars would be the one too. You play both as the player, but also as the manager/owner of the team too. You can handle all sorts of stats, trades, roster change ups, subs, etc all within a season and no other game on the system does this. You basically are controlling all the aspects of the team, not just playing at bat or fielding like the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tulpa | 3,492 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Baseball Stars is actually pretty advanced for an NES game in terms of management. You can boost stats by winning, fire players, etc. It basically is Moneyball, the NES game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lago | 220 Posted October 31, 2020 Author Share Posted October 31, 2020 Thanks guys! I’ll look into it. I actually think I’ve got Baseball Stars 2 somewhere. I’ve played Road to Freedom. I didn’t like the combat at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
