in west philadelphia born and raised
playin' ribby was how i spent most of my days
dinger-jackin, bunting, throwing curveballs all cool
pitching my fastballs to air-cleaving fools
I feel like this picture has been posted everyone on the internet with the title of either "This is everything about the 90s in one photo" or "This is everything about your childhood in one photo"
Do you think the Fresh Prince ever blew into the end of a non-functioning NES and/or cartridge or did he have someone on hand to do that for him? (let the re-quoting begin)

Jazzy Jeff was the blower
That isn't RBI3, right?

what is this, amateur hour? It's RBI 3
I don't think I've ever played RBI3, only original and 2, looked different than I remember RBI2, of course it's been probably a decade+ since I fired up RBI2
Actually I think it's Baseball Stars. Definitely not RBI 3.

Oooooof
Baseball Stars, given Sandie pitching one of the team is the American Dreams
Baseball Stars was a good game. Same gameplay as RBI but you could do way better seasons.
Infinitely better 1 player game, RBI is a much better two player game.

RBI 3 has the same graphics as RBI 2, just more/different players. The only gameplay difference I can think of is that 3 allows you to stand closer to the plate in the batter's box.

Fielding gameplay on Baseball Stars vs. RBI was much different. In Baseball Stars it was too zoomed in and if there was an infield hit you would have to use the the little base screen to see where your base runners were at. Also if a fly ball was hit to the outfield you didn't know where the fielders were till the ball got ten feet away from them. RBI much better overall gameplay especially fielding IMO.
BTW this forum is awesome! Sorry it took me so long to find.

THAT'S WHAT I MEANT...I SWEAR
I played way too many seasons of Baseball Stars as a kid for that not to be a typo.
Pretty embarrassing for tempo there

head in sand...
We all make mistakes, I've heard of the PM'ed death threats. Lets move on, we're bigger than bullying.
Tempo - all that said, please tear up the christmas party invite I sent you. You showing your face around here isn't good for business. I got five kids to feed

Baseball Stars did have the fielders get a head start on the ball, so you didn't have to move them all the way from their starting point, and depending on the location of the hit, sometimes fielders would back up each other. Still requires more awareness of fielders' starting points than RBI, but doesn't take too long to pick up.
and welcome Ichiro!
At one point I had Bstars able to have 14 teams in there, so you could do two ROMs of 14 each (AL/NL) and I had an editor written so you could edit the data. There were major bugs and I never fixed it, but myself and a guy from the Tecmo forum did update all the logos in the game with the MLB logos and they looked pretty dang good.
BStars is a great single player game for sure...in my time editing it, I noticed two bugs taht bothered me. 1, if you brought in a pitcher and then subbed him, even thoguh he never threw a pitch, he'd still get charged an IP of pitching, and it wouldn't log saves correctly for the home team. Other than that, great game (I have a stat extractor written for it somewhere as well).
Also, the ability to level up your players was awesome, and the ability to dive and jump was great...
