Cute takes on standard genres are common in video gaming. Shooters with cute characters are a sub-genre all their own, and the trend even extends to sports. Namco made some of the better known examples, and its World Statium series was highly popular in Japan. Sadly, the west saw it only in the first R.B.I. Baseball game. Read the full review for more information.

Not true. There's also Batter Up on the Game Gear!

Stupid, stinking typos!

Fixed and updated! Thanks.

Fun review! One small suggestion: with all Japanese games, it'd be good to (where appropriate) include a translation of their titles. This one would be, what, "Baseball Travel Journal" or something similar?

There's also Super Batter Up on SNES (with horrible altered graphics) and Extra Bases on Game Boy. On Nintendo systems, it was known as Family Stadium and abbreviated as Famista, though.
