Our Expert Score

80/100

BASEBALL STARS PROFESSIONAL was a launch title for the Neo Geo, and it still holds up as one of the most fun, accessible sports games of its era. It trades the complex simulation of modern titles for pure arcade energy. The animations are expressive, the voice clips are nostalgic, and the gameplay is easy to pick up but hard to master.

Pitching and batting feel great on a touch screen because the timing is rhythmic. The game features a tournament mode that feels like a classic sports anime arc. While it lacks the deep stat-tracking of its sequel, its charm and fast-paced games make it the perfect sports game for mobile play. The ACA version ensures the colorful graphics pop and the frame rate stays locked.
