Super World Stadium '93/Walkthrough: Difference between revisions

From StrategyWiki, the video game walkthrough and strategy guide wiki
One thing many players do not know about the four NS2-era World Stadium games is that when the player loses to the CPU in a 1-player game, a different type of "Namco Sports News" report ("zanpai") will be invoked.
(The Yakult Swallows' and Yokohama Baystars' mascots, "Tsubakuro" and "Starman", were rendered specifically for this game; the screenshots of its "Namco Sports News" reports are also to follow.)

It will now be the first player's turn to pitch and the second player's (or the CPU's) turn to bat; the score display will also have the initial of the second player's team underlined in red as a result of this, and the  text above will now read as the Kanji/Katakana of ''kai ura'' (回ウラ), which means "back time". The game continues until preset number of innings (depending on what that arcade owner has set "CONTINUE1" and "CONTINUE2" settings in the game's options menu to), have been played (you then have to insert another coin, and press either Start Button within 15 seconds, to continue your game each time). Once nine full innings have been played, or the losing team are down by ten runs in the bottom of any inning (however, if both of your teams have the same amount of runs after nine full innings have been played, your game will continue, for up to three extra ones), the Katakana text ''gēmu setto'' (ゲームセット), which means "gameset", will appear upon the screen, as the match's ending jingle is heard from that Yamaha YM-2151 - and the image of your chosen stadium from the stadium selection screen will now zoom into view in the centre of the screen as the text "NAMCO SPORTS NEWS" flies into view from the left side of the screen below it. One of two dramatic jingles will then start to be heard from the Yamaha YM-2151 (the one you will hear depends on whether your match was called or not) as the view cuts to a shot of a screen in a studio showing the winning team's name in Katakana, with either the two Kanji characters ''asshō'' (圧勝), which means "complete victory", or the two different Kanji characters of ''kaishō'' (快勝), which means "easy victory" next to it; the number of runs that both teams scored during the top and bottom of each inning will also be displayed below that, along with the name of your chosen stadium in Katakana (or Hiragana for players who still favour the Kōshien Stadium) and its maximum capacity. The text "GAME OVER" will then appear upon the screen, and the game will go back into attract mode.

Also, because a game can now only last up to twelve full innings, it is again possible for both teams to score the same amount of runs after this amount of innings has been played; in such cases, a ''kaishō'' report will be invoked at the end of the game, but the screen will show the name of the first player's team in Katakana with the Kanji/Hiragana text ''hikiwake'' (引き分け), which means "draw", next to it. The text of "GAME OVER" will then appear as usual. But one thing many players do not know about the four NS2-era World Stadium games is that when the player loses to the CPU in a 1-player game, the dramatic jingle that is usually associated with ''kaishō'' reports will start to be heard from the Yamaha YM-2151 as the image of your chosen stadium from the stadium selection screen zooms into view in the centre of the screen, and that text "NAMCO SPORTS NEWS" flies into view from the left side of the screen below it; the view will then cut to a shot of a screen in a cobweb-covered studio, showing the player's team name in Katakana, with the Kanji text ''zanpai'' (惨敗), which means "a crushing defeat", next to it. The number of runs that both teams scored during the top and bottom of each inning will also be displayed below that, along with the name of your chosen stadium in Katakana (or Hiragana for players who still favour the Kōshien Stadium) and its maximum capacity as usual - and the text of "GAME OVER" will then appear upon the screen as usual, before the game returns back into attract mode.
