Famista is back, kind of:

Pro Yakyuu FanStars League is a collectible card game and app coming out in March in Japan.

The app lets you follow real games live, with Famista/RBI Baseball graphics illustrating the action.

You can also scan real cards to play CCG battles.

I hate to grump, but:

- PS5, Xbox Series, and Switch (1) implies no PC release or graphics overhaul this year
- World Baseball Classic in Diamond Dynasty... no real tournament mode? Can we get teams in exhibition mode at least please?
- The key art is ugly again🙈

The game, titled "Big G All-Star Game" featured all 30 MLB teams and full rosters from the 1998 season, which meant you could simulate the experience of Jay Buhner digging in against the Trix Rabbit. Check this video for full gameplay!

Around the World Lucky Charms (1998-1999): Classic Lucky Charms, but with new marshmallows vaguely shaped like world landmarks/icons such as the Eiffel Tower, Big Ben and Egyptian pyramids. More importantly, it had an offer for a CD-ROM game where cereal mascots played baseball against MLB players!
A red Lucky Charms box, with Lucky holding a suitcase that reads "New! Around the World". Behind Lucky is the Great Clock of Westminster/Big Ben, and a cascade of marshmallows shaped like world icons. On the side of the box is an ad for a baseball-themed CD-ROM featuring General Mills mascots

A new Power Pros game was announced... with no baseball element lol

Pawapuro Adventures takes the training sim gameplay from Success Modes and translates it over to leveling up a fantasy RPG character.

Power Pro Kun Pocket 4 has one of the wildest stories ever implemented into a video game, much less a sports one.
And his club is set on fire... but Hero 4 is not done yet. Conquer Koshien to undo the curse! The souls of the dead erase Hero 4's friends from reality and from everyone's memories!

I found the worst baseball game. Major Dream: Major Wii: Perfect Closer is one of the most notorious video games ever released in Japan and there's more things wrong with it than you can imagine.

I love this Famista commercial too much. Turn on the sound if you don't understand why.

@iiotenki.bsky.social Not like it'll be anything you haven't seen before, but was flipping through Famitsu scans and ran into four pages of Amagami archive.org/details/fami...

Highly important PSP -> Vita graphics comparison lol
A scan comparing the graphics of the PSP and PS Vita versions of Amagami. Vita is a little less blurry, I guess.
