Ninja Baseball Bat Man Longplay (Arcade) [4K]

[@truongthcstruongvanngunguy3421]

this is the best game i have ever played. It brings me lots of childhood memory

[@jamesl.anderson1384]

The Nerd: This is a special message about something that just changed my life. A game called Ninja Baseball Batman! That is the best title ever conceived by a human being, or an alien, or whoever or whatever came up with this. Ninja Baseball Batman! Just say it out loud! (The Nerd whispers in on the game title) Feels amazing, doesn't it? Ninja Baseball Batman. Just when you hear those three words, all these images rush into your mind of ninjas and baseball and Batman. It hits your brain so hard. It's like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! All right. Slow down. I'm okay. Let's see the game. (Game footage begins as the Nerd is surprised and he takes off the Nerd's glasses as it surprised once again) The Nerd: Does it live up to the title? It surpasses the title! Even though it doesn't have much to do with ninjas and definitely has nothing to do with Batman, I'm not disappointed. The word Batman simply means a man with a bat. Well, there's more than one so they could have called it Batmen, or they could have just called it Ninja Baseball Players. But no. They knew what they were doing. Calling it Batman was an ingenious marketing ploy. It got me to play and then it hit me in the face with a grand slam atomic bomb blast of video game goodness! It's a beat 'em up game. You just beat the crap out of everything in sight. Evil baseballs, evil baseball gloves, evil baseball bats holding baseball bats, balls that come together and... What the hell? Is that a flying baseball field?! It's a flying baseball field! So yes, this game is definitely baseball related. And if you can call it a baseball game, it's the best baseball game ever. Oh my God, I'm getting run over by an airplane. Now I'm inside the plane and guess who the boss is. An airplane. I'm fighting an airplane inside of an airplane! There's also a truck with blue lips, a slot machine going berserk. Furniture flying all over the place and spiky wheels being pushed by cats on skateboards being pushed by little green things. I'm getting attacked by refrigerators, a magic electric vulture Jack-o'-Lantern Grim Reaper. And this thing, I can't describe it. I just can't. And the final boss is like some kind of cyborg version of Babe Ruth. There's a lot of good beat 'em up games like the Simpsons and Turtles in Time, but this one is totally underrated. Why wasn't this a huge success? Well, it only existed in the arcade and it never came out on a home console. Wow, they really dropped the ball on that one. Supposedly, only 43 arcade units were shipped to North America. That is sad. (Back to the Nerd on-screen, which is kinda feeling worried) The Nerd: The world needs to know about Ninja Baseball Batman. But right now, the only way to play it is on an emulator. Or if you happen to have access to one of the arcade units. No, this needs to come out again on a home console or better yet, Xbox Live! Ninja Baseball Batman! Ninja Baseball Batman

The only time I saw this was on an AVGN episode and it blew both of our minds 😄🤯

[@pantheman2842]

When James of all people just praises a game, it must be this damn good.

[@hashimotokobayashi2244]

@@pantheman2842 agreed!

[@silvore64]

I still want to play this game because of james showing this game to the world.

[@silvore64]

Just saying it is awesome! "Ninja, Baseball, Batman"

[@huaxiong1990]

The aesthetic of this game definitely stands out compared to the more gritty style of their other games, but as a brawler game, this game feels like a vast improvement of what they learned from the making of Undercover Cops.

[@Jackfromshack]

This imagination would be enough for their own cartoon universe.

[@worldelite5016]

The greatest Beat'em Up games of all time. It's sad the game is forgotten and never got a remake, i hope someome rescues the game before it's gone forever.

[@Kromatt]

I love how the Baseball Bat enemies 2:24 , are holding a BAT :D

[@80sutopia68]

This is a really good game! I love IREM games! If you give it some time , you'll enjoy it! Retro to the MAX!

Uma época em que os games tinham criatividade.

[@pauloroberto-bi4ky]

Irem era conhecida pelos R type 1987, R type II 1989 e R type III 1993

[@TimBoyd2012]

Even though it’s from Irem, it has a Neo-Geo-esque feel to it.

[@fransuke12]

Irem is composed of former SNK employees.

[@aayushpal6621]

​@@fransuke12 its the other way around actually. SNK was formed from former Irem employees

I remember after seeing this game from AVGN, it made me go through a retro arcade beat em up phase

wish playstation store has the game i would love to buy it.

[@ericlimasweml77tvera]

I hope this game comes out as an Arcade Archive for the Switch.

[@theelitegamer1980]

just switch? wow all consoles sounds better to me even i have a switch i rather play on ps4

Nice game

[@LPetal86]

Good old Irem. I've seen 3-4 other playthroughs of this game but just now noticed the second level's music sounds an awful lot like _Sonic Spinball_ 's "The Machine". Both of these games came out the same year about a month apart and I'm not accusing anybody of copying, just find it really cool that this kind of shared beat was created for two different games from two different companies around the same time (were they both inspired by a popular song at the time and used a sample from it, maybe?). Also, the chip for NBBM was apparently the YM2151, which I recognize as being similar to the Sega Genesis' YM2612.

[@AirKangLocker]

roger's powerbomb is so satisfying to do but sadly it costs life 😢

[@NarffetWerlz]

This feels like the copyright-safe knock-off version of a popular game you see in other shows

[@HyperSonicXtreme]

From the guys that brought you Undercover Cops.

i remember playing this in eerie

[@MONROE_GAMES1981]

I notice the newer versions removed the female voice "oh yeah" from all the music lol probably because it sounded like she was getting nailed
