Meimon! Daisan Yakyuubu (名門！第三野球部? lit. Prestigious! Third Baseball Club) is a baseball game developed by Human Entertainment for the NES and published by Bandai in Japan in 1989. It is based on a manga and anime of the same name about an underdog highschool baseball team and the drama that surrounds them. The player can access the game's story mode, which depicts scenes from the manga, by selecting "Dramatic Mode" from the title screen menu. This also adds character portraits to the main game mode.
The game itself is a typical NES baseball game. The pitching/batting perspective is from directly behind the batter, and the player moves the entire group of fielders simultaneously whenever the ball is hit. Graphically, the many super-deformed athletes resemble those of Namco's Famista, which was very much the leading baseball franchise at the time.
