NCS Game Synopsis
«©NCSX»
The boys
of summer won't let winter deter their fighting
spirit when the ninth Power Pro Kun Pocket ships to
market today. Mixing standard big-head baseball
action with a new Story Mode (three episodes), one
of which features a brown-cloaked hero/mentor and
five highly entertaining mini-games, PPKP9 includes
a little bit of something for everyone. We do mean
everyone because there's even an automatic baseball
simulation mode which plays the game for players who
don't even like playing baseball. Just sit back and
watch each game blow by in brisk, fast-forward
fashion.
When playing the game, outfielders will automatically rush towards
fly balls and infielders gravitate to line drives.

NCS Game Notes
»
The
Powerful Baseball series continues with a
simulation where the voice is used to control
defense along with the D-pad. There is no stylus
support.
»
In the
Story Mode of the game, a brown-cloaked hero saves
a wee baseball player from a trio of thugs while Zorro-like music plays
in the background. In the Story Mode,
players control a rookie who trains, interacts
with NPCs, eats, drinks, exercises, rests, and
does his best to become a valuable part of the
team. Each day transitions to the next with a
small animation of the player pulling down on a
rope which changes from nighttime to daytime.
»
When
batting, pressing the B button swings while the A
button bunts.
»
When
pitching, select a pitch with the d-pad and then
press the B button to throw.
»
We found
it inordinately easy to strike opposing batters
out with a mix of pitches and trailing throws. On the
other hand, we were able to connect with most
pitches thrown our way which may mean the game's
difficulty is reduced. Or we're getting better.
