Ever seen a baseball game and a puzzle match have a weird, brilliant baby? That’s Pro Yakyuu Nettou - Puzzle Stadium on SNES. You’re not just swinging bats—you’re scrambling to clear colored balls from the field by matching them, kinda like Tetris meets a ninth-inning rally. Mess up, and the opposing team’s runner advances. Nail a big combo? Feels like smashing a walk-off homer.

At first, I kept panicking and just mashing buttons, but once you get the rhythm—timing your matches while keeping an eye on the baseball side of things—it clicks. The music’s got that classic SNES pep, and the pixel-art players celebrate like they just won the pennant. Surprisingly tense for a game where you’re mostly staring at falling orbs.

If you dig baseball or puzzle games even a little, this one’s a dugout gem.
