TheProdigy Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Did anyone here used to play Ken Griffey Baseball for N64- Back then I used to be in love with the game but it was hard to update the rosters. I found the cartridge today and started playing. I was wondering if anyone used to play it back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfgiantsflgators Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 i played the Griffey baseball game for SNES ALLLLLL the time back in the day - never played it for 64 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleMo Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Yes. As a matter of fact, I played it for years so much so that the cartrige started to no longer work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kccitystar Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Man, MLB featuring Kenny Griff was the best game ever on the N64, possibly up there with RBI Baseball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadHatter Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Never played it, but I did have the original Nintendo when I was a kid and I was addicted to Roger Clemens' MVP Baseball... although honestly I don't remember anything about it at the moment.

Timp Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 I used to play a Ken Griffey MLB game for game boy pocket way back when. I still have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheProdigy Posted June 10, 2006 Author Share Posted June 10, 2006 I gotta agree with KC, I was literally addicted to the game when it game out for N64, and the second releasing of Ken Griffey baseball blew me away because of the audio in create a player.

The_Jerk Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 I never played it for N64, but it was my second favourite all-time game for SNES, right behind Stanley Cup Hockey. The strikeout reactions were the best, from breaking the bat over the knee or screaming "Oh come on!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoCubs720 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 This is a great thread! I was about to make a thread similar to this about old-school baseball video games. My personal favorite was Ken Griffey Jr.'s Slugfest with that crazy Mariner announcer, Dave Niehaus- "get out the white bread and mustard grandma, it's grand salami time!' Me and my friends used to stay up all night playing that game. One time, the final score of one of the games was 23-22. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheProdigy Posted June 10, 2006 Author Share Posted June 10, 2006 Playing against my friends, scores up to 20 because I was so good, I allowed my friends to pick the Mariners - they would do the Griffey cheat all the time and I would still beat them.

TheProdigy Posted June 10, 2006 Author Share Posted June 10, 2006 my other favorites were RBI Baseball, and Tommy Lazorda for Genesis, also World Series for Sega Genesis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean12131982 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Played Bases Loaded (1 2 and 3) for NES, and Ken Griffey (the first one of his) for SNES. Ken Griffey was amazing I played it all the time back in tha day, I even put in the proper names for pretty much every player, and filled out my own scorecards for each game and kept track of all the stats, since the game didn't.

kinghernandez Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Griffey had himself a pretty sweet game there but then Slugfest came out and killed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheProdigy Posted June 10, 2006 Author Share Posted June 10, 2006 howabout Wayne Gretzky Hockey for N64, I used to end the goalies through the glass with a shot, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoCubs720 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Griffey had himself a pretty sweet game there but then Slugfest came out and killed it. Griffey's first N64 game is almost the same as slugfest, the only differences are rosters, menu setup, and the added create a player option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ELDoro Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 hahah yes, I played the one for SNES and I got a lil story. I think the game was rigged: I played with Seattle since I wanted to be Jr. Well I played the whole 162 game schedule ... go to playoffs... go to world series and meet the Cardinals. To make a long story short we went 7 games. Top of the 9th inning (in St. Louis) and the score is tied at 10-10 with 2 outs. Griffey is up and I hit a Hr with him to take the lead. Now with 2 outs in the bottom half of the inning the Cardinals get a guy on with a single. The next guy hit a bomb to deep centerfield .... Jr is in pursuit.... climbs the wall and robs a Hr to win the world series!!! Now even being 11 or 12 I had in mind this was set-up........pretty crazy.

JaFFiTh Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 I had the slugfest for the gameboy..i think i still have it somewhere around here. I hardly ever play the gameboy so i didn't play much, especially when the rosters weren't updated but yeah i'm sure now i'd be like damn, all those players..where the heck did they go! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidalwav90 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 all-star baseball 1998 for n64. That game was sweet. The sweetest thing was that you could get out of a pickle easily, so i'd get in one and move on to the next base. I was the king at the game, my friends always lost.

Quique Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 I still play it. I made the 1998 Mariners on MVP with that game. The only bad thing was the pitchers were somewhat unrealistic. David Cone and ROger Clemens were the same pitcher. Randy Johnson could pitch between 60 and 106 mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickel2 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 i used to play microleague baseball on my mac SE back in 1983 or so. tony larussa for genesis was great too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddux31 Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Tony LaRussa for the PC, IMO was the closest to realism as it got back then. Hot/Cold streaks, Home/Away variables. First part of year Mid year and etc.Alot of good statistical break down I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
