I wonder who could be behind Pocketâ„¢ Pinball.

Those were toys released exclusively on the US.

Those were great, anon. I inherited some from my dad and then when I moved to Brazil, I bought one that looks like that shit that emulates football games.

>either team has a legitimate chance to win each game
>no time limits
>no ties
>comfiest sport ever conceived
>actually highly cerebral
>more about creating pressure/tension to win rather than responding to the same situations to score
>team with the ball is on defense
>running consists of relatively short bursts of explosive speed rather than players pacing themselves
>one player can't carry a whole team
>even literal whos can be game-changers
>dingers are the most majestic play in sports
there are many more reasons, but that's all I care to type out right now

It's got everything that makes sports great.
>Strategy
Every single pitch has purpose. Make a guy miss, set up another pitch. Shifting fielders, pinch hitting/running relieving pitchers. Lefty/righty the list goes on.
>Skill
Hitting a corner as a pitcher, hitting a baseball. Stealing bases, gunning out a runner.
>Athletics
Chugging your ass 90ft to beat out that soft grounder. Climbing the wall to snatch a dinger. A team.
>Tradition
Literally the only game where records matter. History is important in baseball unlike pretty much any other sport. The epitome of the father son experience. What's better than throwing the ball around with pops? Or seeing your kid get a hit in little league.
>Social context and influence
A literal shit ton of verbage used in real life comes from baseball. It's ingrained in our very fabric.
