All-Star Baseball '99 Overview
All-Star Baseball '99 is a handheld baseball simulation that includes the complete roster of thirty MLB teams from the 1998 season. This encompasses the two expansion franchises introduced that year.
Its structure provides several ways to play, from single exhibition matches to a full 162-game season. Shorter season options, a replay of the previous year's playoffs and All-Star game, and dedicated batting and home run contest modes are also available. Progress in longer campaigns is maintained through a password system.
In terms of gameplay, user control extends to the core actions of pitching, fielding, and batting, with the ability to manage team lineups and defensive assignments. The title is distinguished as the series' first portable entry and shares its foundation with another handheld baseball game from the same era rather than its console counterpart.
