Summary

Kore ga Pro Yakyuu '90, sometimes called "This is Pro Baseball '90," is a PC Engine‑only baseball title that builds on the formula of its 1989 predecessor. It packs the full roster of twelve Nippon Professional Baseball clubs, letting you step into the 1990 season with authentic players and team colors. The game never spawned another sequel, making this edition a unique snapshot of early ’90s Japanese baseball on the TurboGrafx‑16. Visually, the action starts from a behind‑the‑batter perspective, with occasional cut‑aways that reveal runners and fielders, and even lets you tweak defensive alignments before each pitch. Once the bat meets the ball, the camera flips to a distant top‑down view, giving you a clear board to control your fielders and chase down hits. The blend of classic 16‑bit graphics and strategic camera shifts gives the title a nostalgic yet tactical feel that still stands out among retro sports games.
