Apba computer baseball review7/29/2023 The biggest thing that stopped me from going further in either game, though, was that it was very difficult to go beyond the confines of the cards that I owned at any given time. In the meantime, I got hooked on the MLB Showdown series for a few years, which appealed to me a bit more then because of its simple game mechanics and colorful player cards, but wasn’t really designed to be a hard core simulation.

My first dive into the genre came right around my 5th birthday, when I received the Baseball Card All Star Game by Cap Toys, which changed my early collecting habits from stickers to baseball cards, but did not actually do a good job of simulating a baseball game upon even a cursory inspection by an experienced game player. I’ve been playing baseball simulation games for just a month shy of 30 years now.
