Super Mega Baseball

Super Mega Baseball is a throwback to when games were nothing but simple and fun. In a world where hyperrealism, complicated controls, and an intimidating number of game modes and options tend to be the norm, this game went the opposite direction to ensure it focused on one thing and did it well. Most players will get through the game using only the directional buttons and a limited number of button presses. In fact, it even offers customized difficulty options so players are only focused on playing the game and not on unnecessary challenges.

The game is limited in what it offers for long-term play (there are only leaderboards and "season play"). But the good news is that, in terms of accessibility, this title hits it out of the park. With the bevy of quirky and fun-looking stadiums, the expressive cartoon-style characters, and the frequent visual effects (slow-motion replays of home runs, fireworks in the sky, and so on), the entire package feels exceptionally well crafted and, most important of all, fun.
