''' | '''Kyuukai Douchuuki''' (球界道中記, ''Baseball World Traveler's Journal'') is a [[baseball]] arcade game that was released by [[Namco]] in [[1990]], only in Japan. It runs on Namco System 2 hardware, was the company's first (non-polygonal) game of the 1990s, and features characters from their first 16-bit arcade game of [[Yōkai Dōchūki]] (known as ''Shadow Land'' in the United States), which was released three years earlier; as with that pioneer NS1 game, it used a Yamaha YM-2151 FM sound chip for its songs, but it used a C140 custom sound chip for its sound effects and speech sampling (as opposed to a PSG and DAC). | ||
Alternate romanization styles for this game's title include Kyūkai Dōchūki and Kyuukai Doochuuki. | |||
The gameplay is similar to that of Namco's own {{c|World Stadium}} series, (which was only comprised of two titles at the time this game was released - so it did not constitute a series back then), except that the players have a total of thirty-six different teams to choose from in the Japanese (the teams in this league are also identical to those from that World Stadium game series), Arabic, German, Humbaba, American, Russian, and Chinese leagues. There is also a total of seven different playing stadiums to choose from (one for each league), and the game was later converted for the [[Sega Genesis]] in [[1991]]. | The gameplay is similar to that of Namco's own {{c|World Stadium}} series, (which was only comprised of two titles at the time this game was released - so it did not constitute a series back then), except that the players have a total of thirty-six different teams to choose from in the Japanese (the teams in this league are also identical to those from that World Stadium game series), Arabic, German, Humbaba, American, Russian, and Chinese leagues.
