From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

   Baseball is a video game made by Nintendo in 1983 for the Nintendo Family Computer, making it one of the first games released for the Famicom. It was later one of the NES's 18 launch titles when it was released in 1985 in the United States. As in real baseball, the object of the game is to score the most runs. Up to two players are supported.

Each player can select from one of six teams. The game's team names are intended to represent members of the Japanese Central League in the Famicom version and members of Major League Baseball (MLB) for the American version.
   As in real baseball, the object of the game is to score the most runs. The game supports one player versus a computer opponent, or two players. Each player can select from one of six teams. Although there is no difference between them other than uniform color, the teams are meant to represent the six members of the Japanese Central League. For the American version, the letters of the teams were renamed to more closely resemble several of the Major League Baseball teams:

  • A: Oakland Athletics
  • C: St. Louis Cardinals
  • D: Los Angeles Dodgers
  • P: Philadelphia Phillies
  • R: Kansas City Royals
  • Y: New York Yankees
The title screen tune of this NES title was also used as the title screen tune of some of Nintendo's NES Sports titles such as Pro Wrestling. A slightly altered version of it was used at the title screen of the NES title, Volleyball, also by Nintendo. The home run tune was later used as the victory tune in both Punch-Out!! and Super Punch-Out!! arcade games.

More details about this game can be found on Wikipedia.org.

Game controls:

The NES version of Baseball was originally controlled via the NES controller with a cross-shaped joypad and two action buttons. The basic description of game controls is summarized in the table below. Detailed description of how to play this game can be found a in the attached game manual. Please note that individual gamepad buttons are emulated by different keys on your PC keyboard depending on the settings of your online emulator (see the table next to the game).

Using the D-pad, you control the direction and speed of the pitch, choose the base where the pass should go, or the base to which the runner should run. All this always in combination with pressing the A or B button.

If you are at bat, the A button is used to swing, or to return the runner to the selected base. If you are in the field, the A button is used to pitch.

By pressing B button, the pitcher throws to the selected base, or you force the runner to run out of the selected base or steal the base. When fielding, by pressing A/B + arrow, you select the base where the pass should go.

Press SELECT on the title screen menu to select between a one or two player game.

Use to start the game. Press during play to pause. Press again to resume play.

 
Videogame Console:

This ver­sion of Baseball was de­sig­ned for the Nin­ten­do En­ter­tai­nment Sys­tem (NES), which was an eight-bit vi­deo ga­me con­so­le ma­nu­fac­tu­red by Nin­ten­do in the years 1983 - 2003. In that time, it was the best-sel­ling vi­deo ga­me con­so­le for which mo­re than 700 li­cen­sed ga­mes and a num­ber of non-li­cen­sed ga­mes we­re cre­a­ted. World­wi­de, ap­pro­xi­ma­te­ly 62 mil­lion units of this con­so­le we­re sold at ap­pro­xi­ma­te­ly pri­ce $ 100 per unit. Mo­re in­for­ma­ti­on about the NES con­so­le can be found here.
