June 22, 200818 yr Worst. Game. Ever. 1. The pitching is all messed up. Your supposed to twist the Wiimote for breaking pitches and keep it straight for fastballs and changes....but it's almost impossible to throw a fastball or change since the sensor alwasy picks up that you are twisting. 2. Throwing to the base you want is nearly impossible. 3. Baserunning resonse really lags....and you have to finish getting to one base with a player before toggeling to another baserunner....if swith baserunners while a runner is in between to bases he just stays there. 4. Unless you get the "BIG PLAY" meter full...you cant hit a home run b/c the outfielders always make robbing over the wall catches. terrible, terrible game. Does anyone know if there's a decent baseball game for the Wii out there?? Do I have to suck it up and buy a traditional controller?
June 22, 200818 yr Author oh, and 5. Doesn't have the full roster: just has 3 SPs and 3 RPs for each team. There's a lot more I just can't think of it right now.
June 22, 200818 yr This is just personal bias to some extent, but MOST sports games for the Wii suck for many similar reasons... Madden, NBA Live.... ugh, so bad
June 22, 200818 yr There's that Wii Power Play game with the MLB characters in the mii character forms or w/e they're called MLB 2K8 got mediocre reviews for the wii too there's not really much out there if you want good baseball then pick up a 360 or PS3

June 23, 200818 yr MLB08: The Show is the way to go. Not if you have a Wii or a 360. Then I'd say they are missing out.
June 23, 200818 yr Author this is pretty disheartening. I love the Wii. But I love baseball games. I wan't both!
June 24, 200818 yr If the only system is a Wii, MLB Power Pros is your best option. It's not an in depth, realistic experience at all, but it's fun as hell and kicks major ass. I bought MLB 2k8, but I still play Power Pros instead.

Roster management is pretty horrible, some pitchers on your team you can't even use because it's glitchy. When you start your second season in franchise mode, unless you do something (If forgot what it is) to counteract the glitch, the season will be 15 games long. The CPU robs like half all homeruns and the overall presentation just feels thrown together.
June 25, 200818 yr The Bigs was supposed to be a slugfest type game. It's not supposed to be completely accurate, just arcade-ish. I love the game.
June 26, 200818 yr Author Marlins MS, yeah I read that after I bought the game and started this post. My fault for not doing the research before I bought the game. But I returned it and bought Super MonkeyBall instead, lol. I went a different route from baseball b/c of what seems to be a bad review of the only really baseball Sim for Wii, MLB2k8. MokeyBall is fun
June 27, 200818 yr Wii just dosent make madden or mlb 2k8 good good wii games are mario games like smash bros brawl mario kart wii mario party etc are fun ass hell 2 play
