All-Star Baseball 2001 Overview
All-Star Baseball 2001 is an updated installment of Acclaim's baseball series for the Game Boy Color. The presentation uses a consistent visual approach, with pitching and batting viewed from behind the batter while fielding and base running are handled from an isometric perspective.
Its primary updates consist of revised player statistics and team rosters to reflect the 2000 MLB season. Other enhancements include refined artificial intelligence, smoother animations, and a redesigned menu system. A Hall of Fame team has been added alongside the standard thirty franchises from that season.
Familiar game modes such as exhibition matches, full seasons, playoffs, and the All-Star Game are present, along with practice options like batting practice and a Home Run Derby. The control scheme carries over from the prior version, offering players multiple options for both pitching and hitting.
