Crushed Baseball is one of those GBA sports games that somehow feels both basic and weirdly satisfying. You’ve got your standard batting, pitching, and fielding, but the controls are just simple enough that you can pick it up fast—no complicated button combos here. The graphics are definitely early 2000s handheld, with tiny players and a zoomed-out view, but there’s something charming about it.

First thing you’ll notice? The pitching mechanic is oddly fun—timing your throws just right to mess with the batter feels way more strategic than it should. And when you actually connect with a solid hit? Yeah, that never gets old. It’s not the deepest baseball sim out there, but if you want something quick to play between bus rides or while waiting for your pizza, this does the job.

Summitsoft wasn’t exactly known for polished games, but this one’s a decent time-waster if you’re into retro sports titles.
