Major League Baseball 2K9 for Wii Reviews by Gamers

Pitching: fine. Batting: awful. I've played Wii Baseball countless times and really enjoy it, so I thought I'd enjoy this game. Not true. Batting in this game is impossilbe. The tutorial alone is frustrating as all get out and in a game situation I was lucky to get a base hit. The only way I got on base was to bunt. I struck people out left and right - three up/three down in most innings - but then I'd strike out at the plate every time. The "guess where the pitch will be" just threw off any kind of concentration one could have. And I was either early or late EVERY TIME. That can't be right. Time the swing and LATE, ok, swing earlier. EARLY. Ok, find the middle. LATE. EARLY. LATE. EARLY. LATE. Screw it, I'm playing Mario.

While this game was mildly entertaining the graphics made you almost think back to the days of the original nintendo. The gameplay really did not go that smoothly and just really bored you before you started. I would not even recommend this for a group of kids that have never seen a sports game being played. Sorry excuse for a sports game from Nintendo.
