Author/Vendor:	Sega
Released:	various
Type:	Sports (baseball)
Language:	English and Japanese
Premise:	Sega's original in-house baseball game especially coded to promote sales of the then-new Genesis/MegaDrive. Features the top lineups and players for the Central League as of the date of coding. "Central League?" you ask. In case you didn't know, professional baseball is currently split into three major leagues - the National and American, both in the United States; and the Central, based in Japan. Each has their own unique variations on the standard rules of the game.
Impressions:	Older pro baseball sims with a bit of a cartoonish look to them now - that's after looking though dozens of latter and superior titles. Not bad, but why bother unless you're really into the Central League?
Variations:	The actual Japanese title is Egawa Sugoro no Supaa Leegu. Super League Baseball (1989, released to the Amercian market in a YACEG English translation as Tommy Lasorda Baseball) Super League Baseball 91 (1990, Japanese release only, new team rosters and a somewhat improved game engine - the full Japanese title is Egawa Sugoru no Supaa Leegu 91) Sports Talk Baseball (1992, practically the same as Super League 91 but in English and with American MLB teams) There apparently was a Japanese version of Sports Talk Baseball released for the Mega CD; see appropriate entry for details.
