Bases Loaded
Also known as: Moero!! Pro Yakyuu | Burn!! Pro Baseball
Bases Loaded is a baseball game that was released for Arcade and the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1987. It was developed by Jaleco and TOSE, and was the first installment in the Bases Loaded series, which was followed by seven sequels for three generations of consoles. The game tried to focus on the confrontation between the pitcher and the batter, putting emphasis on the face-off between the two. Unfortunately, this made the perspective fairly limited in determining where to hit the ball, or even where the ball was during a pitch.

Description
About This Game
Bases Loaded is a baseball game with an arcade feel and plenty of
options from which players can choose. Select one of twelve teams, set
your lineup from the 30 players available (each with different
strengths), and then play a single game or try to win the pennant.
During game play, the screen shows two different viewpoints: one from
behind home plate as you’re batting, and the other from the pitching
mound in a television-style shot (unique for the time) as your team
plays in the field. Strong play control and excellent graphics add to
the excitement as you decide what pitch to throw (you can even try to
provoke the opposing batter into charging the mound!), control all of
the positions in the field, or do your best to get a hit. So step to the
plate and find out why this is one of the most popular baseball games on
the NES. Can you pull through in the clutch?
