Why couldn't Konami make an realistic MLB game.

Because 2K Games has the MLB license. The only reason Power Pro was released here is because there was a deal made between 2K and Konami. I can't see them doing the same with Konami's realistic baseball games.

Hey, I figured they would ignore the Wii for FFIV: The After on the account of cellphone makes them more monies. But since this captures other monies (and repeat monies ><;) then yay all around for monies spending.

Okay what's the deal with the covers? For several weeks it's been photos of average-looking girls.

Hmm, FF Gaiden looks to be the trial game to get people to like the idea of switching weapons to switch jobs like in FFXIV...

Hymn princess of Antiphona - Angel's Musical Score Op. A looks very similar to the Marl series...

I wonder if there is a connection :D
