Done a match for this one. Took 1 hour. I consider it done, alongside also the Game Boy counterpart. Good lord, I'll never touch this ever again.
Just like most of NES black box sports games, this one was funny by how poorly it played.
Baseball isn't a popular sport where I live, and I barely knew the rules thanks to Wii Sports. Swinging felt so scripted (??) since with several rewinds the result was always the same even if I moved or timed differently. I thought I could have gone infinite if I kept scoring with my team. When I went beyond 9 points to one turn, it automatically restarted again. I'm...pretty sure that's not how baseball works. But ok, some few laughs were done (and also some frustration/boredom).

Finally beat the first game of that one character from Marvel vs Capcom I was always interesting to check the entries where he's from.
This game isn't a joke, especially the final level. Strider feels very lethal against enemies, mashing his attack and beating tons of enemies is fun.
However the level design is a mixed bag. Stage 3 with the squashing walls was stupidly hard and frustrating.
Stage 4 made me laugh so much with the indigenous women screaming "ENKA BUZ JUNGLE".
I wanna rate it towards a 7/10, but I feel 6.5/10 is more accurate. It's a classic, absolutely, but it hasn't aged greatly.
