All-Star Baseball 2001 is a video game developed by High Voltage Software and KnowWonder and published by Acclaim Entertainment for the Game Boy Color and the Nintendo 64 in 2000.

Gameplay

[edit]

The gameplay centers on the player controlling a Major League Baseball team through a simulation mode that allows management of statistics, trades, free agents, and overall team development, while standard games use a pitching and batting interface that emphasizes precision and timing; alternatively, the player can choose the Arcade Quickplay mode, which instead favors fast, simplified batting and pitching where the player swings and throws freely for quick, action‑focused matches.[3]

Reception

[edit]

The Nintendo 64 version received favorable reviews, while the Game Boy Color version received mixed reviews, according to the review aggregation website GameRankings.[4][5]
