Super Bases Loaded is a Super NES baseball game. This game is known as Super Professional Baseball (スーパープロフェッショナルベースボール?) in Japan.
The game is the fifth overall installment of the Bases Loaded series, and first installment of the secondary series for the Super Nintendo. The series spanned three generations of consoles and eight total installments. The original Bases Loaded title was an arcade game that Jaleco ported to the NES. There was also a Game Boy version of Bases Loaded. Only the original Bases Loaded was an arcade game; the rest of the series were exclusive to their particular consoles. There are four video games in the Bases Loaded NES series, Bases Loaded II: Second Season, Bases Loaded 3 and Bases Loaded 4. The series continued onto the SNES platform with Super Bases Loaded, Super Bases Loaded 2, and Super Bases Loaded 3. The final entry to the series was Bases Loaded '96: Double Header, released for the fifth generation consoles Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation.
[edit] Game Play
When the player loses a game, the player is disqualified and he/she is sent back to the title screen to try again on the lowest level of play. When the player wins the game however, the game gives the player a score between 0 and 100.
Getting 100 once takes you to the toughest level, where getting the perfect 100 score again means that the player has defeated the game and credits start to appear. Achieving a score lower than normal, gets the player demoted to a lower level and a stern message from the invisible drill sergeant that is the game. However, getting a higher score than normal gets the player promoted to the next level and admirations from the game itself.
The advertising in the game consists of spoofs from actual companies that were in existence in the early 1990s. The language of the advertisements are in English in the North American version while the Japanese version (called Super Professional Baseball) has most of its advertisements in Japanese. In addition to this, home run messages appear in either English or Japanese, depending on what version the player has. The player has two edit teams and he/she can edit the names of the player and career statistics in an attempt to either improve the batter/pitcher or to deliberately make him perform worse on the field.
