it's here today.  what version are you picking up?

i'm going with the ps2 version so i can play it upscaled on the ps3...  plus, it's $30 as opposed to the $40 wii version.  still can't believe they finally brought this series to the states.  look forward to playing it with proper english menus for once.

i admit, power pros looks fucking gay as hell, but it's actually a really deep baseball game with some interesting features.  at least that's what drew me in.  i could care less about having my mii show up when i'm up to bat.

I picked up the PS2 version today, can't wait to get home and try out the very first North American Power Pro title! I've been importing the PS2 games for the last couple seasons now, they're about as awesome as a baseball game can get.

I thought this was a joke post

Joke? You best listen up, sonny boy, Power Pro will own you.

It is wacky Jappy, and totally awesome.

I'm still in a state of shock. I can't believe Konami released a Power Pro game in North America.

There's an active 10% off coupon for Best Buy on the web, I used that and ended up getting Power Pros for $28 w/tax.

I'm buying this game after work. I get Virtua Tennis, the game that ruined my high school GPA, vibes from the player training and stuff, if the pitching, hitting, and fielding stuff is solid holy shit.
