DEN: MLB: Power Pros 2008 Review

DEN writes: "One of biggest issues I have with Wii games is when no effort is made to give the console an experience that is actually designed for it. This year's installment of MLB Power Pros is just such a game. If you picked up last year's baseball cum chibi animation, you know what to expect. Newer players will likely be drawn in by what seems to be a perfect marriage of Nintendo's overly cute world, and licensed sports games. Of course once you figure out that this is just the usual baseball action, there isn't really any reason to hang around. The Bigs showed off the power of the Wii for baseball games, and then there is N's own Mario Sluggers. MLB Power Pros 2008 could have bridged the gap between the two and made something of itself, instead it's an off and cute game that tried to meld that into charm."
