NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The baseball season is well along this year on both sides of the Pacific. The NY Yankees are leading the American League East here in the States and the Yomiuri Giants are ruling the Central League standings over in Japan. In other baseball news, Konami releases another volume in what's probably the longest running baseball game series in the industry. Yep, Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu or big-head-baseball has been around for nearly 20 years and NCS has watched it grow, develop, and get refined into a multi-console franchise that has endured the test of time.
Upon starting the game, a snazzy introductory sequence plays where animated baseball players with big eyes and no mouths go to bat, pitch, and play the game for an enthusiastic throng. Towards the middle of the introduction, fireworks start blowing up to add to the theatrics. Fireworks are cool. The 2010 edition of Jikkyou Powerful Pro for the PSP features all 12 Japanese professional teams and their respective stadiums in which they'll play. The usual game modes return including "Pennant Mode" where players reach for the post-season and "My Life" which places gamers in the shoes of a rookie who's just starting his career in the world of professional baseball. The PoTaCa Card System also makes its return where in-game trading cards are used to unlock special Pro Yakyu 2010 features. PoTaCa cards are also used to imbue baseball players with improved skills and abilities across the various game modes. The "Success Mode" of the game allows players to choose a pro team and enjoy a season-long baseball scenario that's unique for each squad.
