So, they must be expensive to get.  Or you can always get one of those contraptions you posted first?  ;)

I think the price is reasonable on-line. Just not sure how well built they are and if the price is enough to justify for the few games that would use the controllers. Same thing for the Coleco steering wheel.

OK, cool. 

Well, here is another baseball game to look at.  This time for the Arcadia 2001, simply called Baseball.

Looks like they took time to make a good game. Basic colors for sure. I like it!

The Lynx games look good.

Maybe it is just me, but every game I have played on the Sega Master, that had the word Great in the title has not been all that great of a game.

All those look pretty good.  Has anyone played them?  Are they as good as they look?

I have the original World Series Baseball, it's pretty good.

Frank Thomas was actually supposed to come out on the Jag and was apparently near enough finished.

And we continue to be tortured to learn about titles that never made it to the Jaguar that were supposed to be coming for it.

I have Bases Loaded '96, Bottom of the Ninth, Frank Thomas Big Hurt, Grand Slam and World Series Baseball. Sadly I do not know which ones were not to be ported to the Jaguar. :78:

Like Laird, World Series Baseball is might favorite followed by Grand Slam and Bases Loaded '96.

TrekMD

Cool, looks like several of these are good games then.
