i wish that the baseball simulator 1.000 games still worked in season mode.  i've bought at least five copies of it over the past few years, and they all freeze when you try to sim a computer game.  the roms do the same thing.  it sucks.

My cartridge worked fine when I played a season last summer.  Is it possible that you're just impatient?  The games take a really long time (several minutes) to simulate.



i think it goes black and freezes everything up. .  .. . .. .i'd love to play some 1.000. . . . might do it when i get home.

mine stops at the screen with the chick who is supposed to be doing sports highlights or something - it just keeps playing the music and doing nothing.

It's probably the one glitch that wasn't accounted for in the scramble to prepare for Y2K.  All Baseball Simulator 1.000 cartridges stopped working at the same time that Prince's 1999 became irrelevant

Given the title, everything wrapped from 1.999 to 1.000 - try setting your clock in Windows back to 1998 and play a season (simley)

That's the sim screen.  Give it 5 or 10 minutes and see what happens (you may want to have something else to do while you wait).  It could be not working, or it could be just usual slowness.  It also appears to take more time depending on the length of the inning, so if the visiting team is scoring a huge amount of runs, the top of the first will take longer.

i sped the frame rate on my emulator up to 850, and the game simmed in about ten seconds.  DAMN that is slow.  Why does this take forever and Tecmo Super Bowl can sim in like three seconds on a normal frame rate?

Tecmo was made 3-4 years later, and they designed the simulation well

from GameFAQS:

Tecmo Super Bowl 12/13/1991

Baseball Simulator 1.000 10/27/89

ok, so two years difference.  I'm still not satisfied.  Here's why:

Baseball Stars 5/13/89

that game simulates in like two seconds.  I'm pissed at Culture Brain!
