One key difference between the NES and Game Boy versions, are that the Game Boy version introduces the ability to let the player control the players catching the balls in the field. If the player wishes to let the computer control the players in the field, they can opt out by not pressing any buttons; pressing a button during this scene will let the player take control. | One key difference between the NES and Game Boy versions, are that the Game Boy version introduces the ability to let the player control the players catching the balls in the field.

–A troll's article on me
For the last decade following my demotions and exiles from the community, I've been on and off of this site. I'll drop in here occasionally to edit, but otherwise, here's my Twitter, Youtube, Instagram and Steam.
My website, work in progress. Not much on it, really.
- take care, friends~
Below is a test article for Baseball not yet ready for mainspace.

Baseball is a Game Boy port of the Nintendo Entertainment System title, Baseball. The game is based on the sport of the same name, most popular in the United States. It was released as a launch title for the Game Boy in both Japan and the United States. The game's cover in the Western release features Mario pitching a baseball; the Japanese cover does not.
The Game Boy version of Baseball was re-released on the Nintendo 3DS's Virtual Console in 2011.
Gameplay
The game boasts two separate modes, a "USA MODE" with English character names and a "JPN MODE" where the character's names are Japanese names. Aside from the names of the characters, the Japanese mode changes how the ball speed is indicated, the display order of the ball count, and the background music played. The game features only two teams regardless of mode chosen: "W-BEARS" (White Bears[1]; whom always bat first) and "R-EAGLES" (Red Eagles[1]; whom always pitch first). Mario and Luigi both appear as pitchers in the "USA MODE", both playing for opposite teams.
Using the Game Boy Video Link Cable, it is possible to play the game with two players.
One key difference between the NES and Game Boy versions, are that the Game Boy version introduces the ability to let the player control the players catching the balls in the field. If the player wishes to let the computer control the players in the field, they can opt out by not pressing any buttons; pressing a button during this scene will let the player take control.

Trivia
- The game includes a character named "Yoshi" that plays in the game's Japanese mode for the White Bears team as a batter. This game was released a year before Yoshi's very first appearance in Super Mario World, and thus the connection is merely coincidental. In real life, Yoshi is a name in the Japanese language that can be both a first name or a last name or is commonly a shortened nickname of a longer name.
