Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball is a sports game released in 1994 for the Super Nintendo platform. It focuses on delivering an authentic baseball experience, allowing players to engage in Major League Baseball matches with real teams and players from that era. The main objective is to lead a team through various baseball games, aiming to win matches and ultimately secure the championship.
The gameplay pace is moderately fast, reflecting the dynamic nature of baseball while allowing time for strategic decisions such as pitching and batting choices. A unique mechanic in this title is the inclusion of Ken Griffey Jr. as a central figure, with his real-life stats influencing gameplay, providing a realistic simulation element uncommon at the time.
One distinctive feature is the detailed player animations and the presence of an on-screen radar to help track the ball during hits and pitches. This adds clarity and enhances the user’s ability to follow the game's action, making it easier to anticipate plays and react accordingly. The game’s approach to combining arcade-style play with simulation elements sets it apart in the sports genre.
