World Class Baseball is a baseball video game originally released for the NEC PC Engine in 1988. It was re-released for the Wii Virtual Console service in North America on September 17, 2007, and in PAL regions on September 21, 2007.
World Class Baseball features 12 teams that must be defeated in the single player Pennant Mode, a knockout competition. Upon defeating all teams, the player faces off against the Turbo Tigers, a non-player selectable team of all-stars. The game also gives the option for players to compete in a one or two player versus exhibition game, or to watch two computer controlled teams play each other.
