Baseball[a] is a video game from Nintendo. It was released December 7, 1983, after the July 15 launch of the Famicom in Japan.[5] In 1984, it was ported to the VS. System arcade as VS. Baseball with additional graphics and speech, becoming a number one hit in Japan and North America that year. It was localized as a Nintendo Entertainment System launch game in North America in 1985,[6] and in Europe in 1986.[7] IGN said the universal appeal of the American sport made Baseball a key to the NES's successful test market introduction, and an important piece of Nintendo history.[8] The game was also competing with Sega's arcade hit Champion Baseball, released earlier in 1983.
