Sporting News Baseball (1988 & 1995)
Epyx introduced the Sporting News Baseball game for the Commodore 64 in 1988 with Gary Carter on the cover. The game has an agreement with the MLBPA, so you’ll find all your favorite stars to take the field. The well-established sports journal returned in 1995, this time with a version for the Super Nintendo, and this time from Hudson Soft USA. There are several different gameplay modes to choose from Exhibition, All-Star Game, Home Run Derby, and Pennant Race that will put you right on the field in the middle of the action. If you’re feeling nostalgic, play a game on the field of dreams, with cornfields surrounding the outfield.
