Super World Stadium/Gameplay

At bat

 * Joystick: While waiting for the pitch use the 8-way joystick to position your batter inside the batting box. (All sixteen teams have a different batter).
 * First Button: Press and hold this button to swing your bat. If you do not hold this down long enough you may bunt the ball instead of swinging at it.
 * Second Button: Press this button to initiate stealing a base. You must first push the joystick in the direction of the base you would like to steal. For example, if you have a runner upon the first base and would like to steal the second, first push the joystick to the left, then press the second button.

Pitching

 * Joystick: Before the pitch is thrown, you must push the joystick to the left or right, to move the pitcher from one side of the pitch mound to the other.
 * First Button: Before you press this button, you must push the joystick, to determine the speed of the ball. Push it up to throw a slow ball, or down to throw a fast ball. Pushing it in any other direction or not pushing it at all will result in a normal speed pitch. Throwing many fast balls or slow balls will wear a pitcher out faster. Once the ball is thrown, you must push the joystick to the left or right to control the path of the ball on the way to the batter.
 * Second Button: Once a runner is on a base, press this button to switch from the batter/mound view to the infield view where you can attempt to tag out runners who are stealing bases. Pressing it again will switch from the aforementioned infield view back to the aforementioned batter/mound view.

Running bases

 * First Button: Runners will automatically move to the next base, once a ball lands on the ground. Press this button to request that a runner continues running, or that he run before the ball has landed. You must first push the joystick in the direction of the base you would like to reach. For example, if you have a runner headed on to the first base and would like to run all the way on to the second, first push the joystick up, then press the first button.
 * Second Button: As mentioned above, runners automatically move to the next base, unless it is a fly ball, in which case they wait to see if it is safe to run. You may decide that you do not want to wait and send a player ahead. But if it turns out that the ball was caught, you'll need to send him back to the base before he is tagged out. If you were heading on to second base when the ball was caught you will have to send the runner back to first base by pushing the joystick to the right, and then pressing the second button. (If he does not manage to make it back there in time, he will be tagged out).

In the field

 * Joystick: Before the ball is caught by any player you must use the joystick to determine the general directions that the players are running in. Given that is no one outfielder that you will be in control of at any time in this game, all of them will move in the direction that you are holding the joystick in.
 * First Button: Once the ball is in one of your players' hands, push the joystick in the direction that corresponds to the base you would like to throw to, and press the button. If you do not push the joystick in any direction, the ball will automatically be thrown to first base (like you meant to throw there).
 * Second Button: Once the ball is in one of your players' hands, you can run on to any base, by pushing the joystick in the direction that corresponds to the base you would like to run to, and pressing the button. Now that you've learned these important playing techniques it's time to meet the teams (ten of which are returning favourites from the three System 1-era games, but six of which were created specifically for this first System 2-era game).

The fifth returning team from the System 1 era; two of their players also still share their names with the Cars' No. 3 and the Giants' third pitcher, so could still cause confusion if either of those returning teams are picked to play against them.

The seventh returning team from that System 1 era; their No. 8 also now shares his name with the Blue Arrows' second pitcher, which could cause more confusion if that new team is picked to play against them. The Blue Arrows' Satoto also used to play for the now-defunct Bravos team.

Homes (ホームズ, literally Hōmuzu) - 1: Tataki (たたき, Hidari, AV .331, HR: 35), 2: Yunomitai (ゆのみたい, Migi, AV .289, HR 10), 3: Kikikawa (ききかわ, Migi, AV .310, HR: 40), 4: Monta (もんた, Hidari, AV .320, HR 50), 5: Rara (ララ, Hidari, AV .272, HR 20), 6: Furimoto (ふりもと, Migi, AV .282, HR: 15), 7: Minakami (みなかみ, Migi, .AV 266, HR: 20), 8: Ishikiri (いしきり, Migi, AV .250, HR 5), 9: Murara (むらら, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.21, shares name with the Giants' No. 8), Katoto (かとと, Migi, AV .150, HR: 0, ERA 3.56), Momohara (ももはら, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.23), Imura (いむら, Migi, AV .150, HR: 0, ERA: 4.11), Saitoto (さいとと, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 2.98, shares name with both the Giants' and Wheels' third pitchers), or Ieda (いえだ, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.82). The second team invented for this game; two of their pitchers also share their names with the Giants' No. 8, and the Giants and Wheels' third pitchers, which could cause even more confusion if either of those teams are picked to play against them (as this is the first time that three players have shared the same name in the World Stadium series). The No. 4 also used to play for the now-defunct Bravos team. Because the other now-defunct team of the Hornets did not make it into the System 2 era, they have also taken the initial letter H and made it their own.

Drasans (ドラサンズ, lit. Dorasanzu, 2nd logo/4th lineup) - 1: Tatenami (たてなみ, Hidari, AV .282, HR: 15), 2: Mamaguchi (ままぐち, Migi, AV .250 and HR 10), 3: Rairai (ライライ, Hidari, AV .300, HR: 30), 4: Omiai (おみあい, Migi, AV .372, HR: 50), 5: Uo (うお, Migi, AV .292, HR 35), 6: Haihō (はいほう, Hidari, AV .282, HR: 40), 7: Imura (いむら, Migi, AV .270, HR: 10, shares name with the Homes' fourth pitcher), 8: Nanamura (ななむら, Migi, AV .252, HR 10), and 9: Imamaka (いままか, Hidari, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.11), Antanson (アンタンソン, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 2.98), Amamoto (あまもと, Hidari, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.44), Kaki (かき, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.11, shares name with the Lionels' second pitcher), Toda (とだ, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 4.09), or Moratta (もらった, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.22). The eighth of the ten returning teams from the System 1 era; two of its new players also share their names with the Homes' fourth pitcher, and the Lionels' new second pitcher, which could cause yet more confusion if either of those teams (the former of which did not exist in the NS1 era) are chosen to play against them. Their new logo has also enlarged the eyes of the "D".

Sparrows (スパローズ, lit. Suparōzu, 2nd logo/4th lineup) - 1: Hashiami (はしあみ, Migi, AV .270, HR 5), 2: Tanarino (たなりの, Ryō, AV .280, HR: 10), 3: Tei (テイ, Ryō, AV .311, HR 25), 4: Irosawa (いろさわ, Migi, AV .311, HR 36), 5: Ikeike (いけいけ, Migi, AV .310, HR 40), 6: Tata (たた, Hidari, AV .311, HR: 29), 7: Urata (うらた, Migi, AV .321, HR: 20), 8: Ichishige (いちしげ, Migi, AV .250, HR: 15), 9: Kamasaki (かまさき, Migi, AV .150, HR: 0, ERA: 2.99), Ishimura (いしむら, Migi, AV .150, HR: 0, ERA 3.21, shares name with the Orients' No. 1), Katoto (かとと, Hidari, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.33, shares name with the Homes' second pitcher), Naitoto (ないとと, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 4.25), Kobana (こばな, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 5.01), or Ohayashi (おはやし, Migi, AV .150, HR: 0, ERA 3.88). The ninth returning team from the System 1 era; one of their new players also shares his name with the Orients' No. 1 and one of their returning players now shares his name with the Homes' second pitcher, which could cause yet more confusion if either of those teams (the latter of which, for a second time, did not exist in the NS1 era) are chosen to play against them. Still five more teams left to go.

Titans (タイタンズ, lit. Taitanzu, 2nd logo/4th lineup) - 1: Ada (あだ, Migi, AV .250, HR 5), 2: Yoihiko (よいひこ, Ryō, AV .242, HR 10), 3: Omaru (オマル, Migi, AV .301, HR: 30), 4: Okara (おから, Migi, AV .280, HR: 35), 5: Agi (あぎ, Migi, AV .290, HR: 35), 6: Tuin (トゥイン, Hidari, AV .255, HR: 30), 7: Ayumi (あゆみ, Migi, AV .251, HR: 25), 8: Ido (いど, Migi, AV .222, HR 10), 9: Toda (とだ, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 4.10, shares a name with the Drasans' fifth pitcher), Akanishi (あかにし, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 4.22), Imomata (いもまた, Hidari, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 4.32), Komekura (こめくら, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.98), Fubune (ふぶね, Hidari, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.88), or Nyanko (にゃんこ, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 4.22). The tenth and final returning team from that System 1 era; one of the new players also shares his name with the Drasans' new fifth pitcher, which could cause yet more confusion if that team is chosen to play against them. The new sixth pitcher also used to play for the now-defunct Hornets team between 1988 and 1990.

Bottom row
Orbies (オービーズ, lit. Ōbīzu) - 1: Fukumomo (ふくもも, Hidari, AV .290, HR 10), 2: Kacchan (かっちゃん, Hidari, AV .282, HR 40), 3: Ōsama (おーさま, Hidari, AV .301, HR 50), 4: Misutā (みすたあ, Migi, AV .333, HR 44), 5: Harihari (はりはり, Hidari, AV .352, HR 25), 6: Taburin (たぶりん, Migi, AV .290, HR 40), 7: Kōri (こおり, Migi, AV .299, HR 30), 8: Haira (はいら, Hidari, AV .270, HR 15) and 9: Tegawa (てがわ, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 2.98), Mamada (ままだ, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 2.88, shares his name with the Cars' No. 1), Hikario (ひかりお, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 2.92), Murara (むらら, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 4.01, shares name with the Giants' No. 8 and the Homes' first pitcher), Iramatsu (いらまつ, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.88), or Konatsu (こなつ, Hidari, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 1.98). The third team who were invented specifically for this game; two of its players also share their names with the Cars' No. 1, and the Giants' No. 8 and the Homes' first pitcher - which could cause yet more confusion if any of those teams are chosen to play against them (and this is now the second time that a total of three players have shared the same name in the World Stadium series).

Fifties (フィフティーズ, lit. Fifutīzu) - 1: Uirī (ういりー, Hidari, AV .311, HR 10), 2: Yoyoda (よよだ, Migi, AV .326, HR 40), 3: Akanishi (あかにし, Migi, AV .336, HR: 50, shares name with the Titans' second pitcher), 4: Kamikami (かみかみ), Hidari, AV .341, HR 33), 5: Tōshida (とーしだ, Migi, AV .350, HR 25), 6: Nomuri (のむり, Migi, AV .321, HR 40, shares his name with the Cars' No. 3 and the Wheels' second pitcher), 7: Ōtta (おおった, Migi, AV .301, HR 30), 8: Tataki (たたき, Migi, AV .282, HR 15, shares name with the Buckaroos' fifth pitcher) and 9: Nanao (ななお, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 2.12), Sāmura (さあむら, Hidari, AV .150, HR: 0, ERA: 0.98), Aneda (あねだ, Hidari, AV .150, HR: 0, ERA: 3.31), Fugishita (ふぎした, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 2.18), Suda (スダ, Migi, AV .150, HR: 0, ERA: 1.99), or Iyata (いやた, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.48). The fourth team invented for this game; three of their players also share their names with the Titans' second pitcher, the Cars' No. 3/the Wheels' second pitcher, and the Buckaroos' fifth pitcher, which could cause yet more confusion if any of those teams are chosen to play against them (it's the third time that three players have shared the same name).

Nationals (ナシオナルズ, lit. Nashionaruzu) - 1: Tōruman (トールマン, Ryō, AV .300, HR 10), 2: Sanbagu (サンバグ, Migi, AV .305, HR 50), 3: Kuraku (クラク, Migi, AV .300, HR: 20), 4: Mitsukeru (ミツケル, Migi, AV .330, HR: 40), 5: Sutorō (ストロー, Migi, AV .280, HR: 50), 6: Senbō (センボー, Migi, AV .280, HR: 30), 7: Santogo (サントゴ, Migi, AV .260, HR 10), 8: Osumisu (オスミス, Migi, AV .250, HR 20), and 9: Guren (グレン, Migi, AV .150, HR: 0, ERA: 2.92), Maruchin (マルチン, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.11), Dorekku (ドレック, Migi, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.21), Baio (バイオ, Hidari, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.70), Yurango (ユランゴ, Hidari, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 3.36), or Jiburu (ジブル, Hidari, AV .150, HR 0, ERA 2.98). The fifth & penultimate team who were invented specifically for this game; they are also one of only two teams to boast a lineup composed entirely of players with Katakana namings.
