Think this'll even see the light of day this year? I've got my doubts. After a couple of delays Nintendo's now completely removed it from the "upcoming" titles on their site. Maybe the delays were bringing it too close to Mario Baseball's launch?

Maybe its better if they just polish the hell out of it for another 10 months and drop it on us Opening Day of 2006. We'll definately need it then, since I doubt we're going to see the 2k series come back for the system's final year.

Any word on this game in 2006?  I'm not a lover of 2k's baseball games (hitting is always so annoying in them) but can't find any firm info on this.  Some places list in for a March 2006 release, others list it as cancelled.

Last I heard, Nintendo put it on indefinite hold, which means it's probably cancelled.  I guess there's a chance that they delayed it for this year due to Mario Baseball, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

One other possibility is that they decided to prepare it for Revolution.  The GameCube already has no reputation for sports games (outside of the Mario sports) so this game would have a much bigger impact on a new system than on the current one.  Still, I wouldn't hold my breath.
That's my opinion, not yours.

As Couch already said, current rumors are that it has been moved to a Revolution launch title.  However, it's just a rumor, so who's to say if it really is.

Earlier in this thread I had referenced Pennant Chase Baseball as playing similar to Ken Griffey Jr. (original) for the SNES.  Now that Mario Baseball does just that (playing identical, although probably at an overall slower pace) will Pennant Chase Baseball really follow in that kind of style?
