I assume its out on other platforms soon/now? Seems like it plays ok.

 

[Plinko]

I'll wait for PS4/XB1 version. Thanks for the OP, though--I had no clue it was coming so soon.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

I very rarely use my iPhone for games but this looks like fun. Bought!

The last time I played RBI baseball was RBI 2 on a Tengen cart for my NES a billion years ago.

 

[shandy706]

I'd bite at $5 on the console version. I'm guessing it's going to be $15+?

I want the Xbox One version NOW!! its on the 360 today, wtf! what is the hold up?

$20 on 360.

 

[Bessy67]

$20 on 360.

Meh. It looks like it might be fun arcade baseball but I think $15 would be my ceiling on it. I'll wait.

 

[shandy706]

$20 on 360.

Ah.....hmmm. I'll wait for some reviews and impressions then.

I wouldn't mind a good arcade baseball game.

 

[The Elite]

Might grab this for when I don't have The Show on Vita available.

 

[DrFunk]

Will wait for Gertsmann approval

 

[The Elite]

No real stadiums?

 

[BRocknRolla]

Will wait for Gertsmann approval

I have my doubts that Gerstmann is going to approve.

 

[lemonade]

Any worth android baseball games?

 

[Xater]

Anyone here willing to take one for the team?

 

[Peru]

Anyone here willing to take one for the team?

I've got it for the ipod.

Seems to play pretty well. A baseball game with real teams and players but simple pick up and play mechanics is a welcome thing after all. WIsh they'd give us cartoony representations of team stadiums though. And online multiplayer's gotta come some time, it needs that multiplayer - hard to gauge exactly how the AI performs and how I should plan my pitching.

how is the new one? Getting varied impressions on framerate. some say its ok, some say its dog shit.

 

[Silky]

RBI's out on XBLA http://majornelson.com/2014/04/09/arcade-r-b-i-baseball-14/?linkId=7931583

Frame rate drops noticeably during some cutscenes. Gameplay remains solid.

 

[PassiveObserver]

If this feels anything like a full-fledged baseball game, I'm in.

 

[Soup Bar]

20 bucks seems like a rip off.

 

[impact]

Why are they even releasing this on PS4? Crazy waste of money

 

[EazyWeazy3]

If this had an online mode for the One I would have purchased it.

2014 and doesn't have an online mode, easy pass.

 

[TechOne]

$20.... That was not the price I was expecting. Pass.

 

[Allforce]

Here's some gameplay footage that looks to be 360. Looks pretty much how you'd expect a new RBI Baseball to look, complete with that slow-ass throwing speed haha. Part of the charm I suppose.

I might pick up the PS4 version, 20 bucks seems about right for some arcade baseball action.

[MrBlonde]

LOL, you guys are complaining about this being $20?? And why is it a waste of money being release on the PS4? Not everyone wants the show or maybe some people want both, 2 completely different games.

Anyways, this looks fun, I grew up playing these games and I look forward to this, I wish it was out on the Xbox One, I am tempted to buy the 360 version but ill try and wait. To bad they dont do some kind of $5 upgrade if you buy the 360 version and buy it on the One.

 

[pdk27]

I've been playing it on my iPhone 5 and iPad Air. It's definitely fun and good for the format. I do wish it had stats during season mode. Probably wouldn't pay $20 for the console version unless it has some more features.
