In the same year, Namco published World Stadium for arcades and Pro Yakyuu World Stadium for the PC Engine. As a result, elements that were newly introduce in those versions were translated to this Famicom version of the game. Examples include errors from dropping balls, and increasing the number of starting pitchers from 2 to 4.
Another new element introduced in this version is the concept of "strong players". Two people in the starting line-up are chosen at random to be good players. The stats of these players is increased higher than usual. During the seventh inning, the "Lucky 7" effect occurs, and all players receive this enhanced status.
At the end of the game, the name of the fictitious agency reporting the results has been changed from "Namco Sports" to "NAMCOT SPORTS NEWS". In addition to the match results, an evaluation of players' perfomance is presented as a function of their annual salary. The results from each ballpark is reported by a different woman. An advertisement for the arcade game Toy Pop may also be presented.
Because the password feature has been removed, you must defeat all 13 teams without resetting in order to complete the game. Two player games are played through one to four wins.
