I still believe PYS will live on. Nothing has been posted anywhere saying they let PYS go. Why would they it's more $$.

Ok I've heard of the fox engine (used in PES) but that's about all I know about it. What exactly is different about it from the old engine and your saying this Power Pros uses it?

Would the manual for success mode in the Wii version help with this at all, have you ever looked into it?

it's Konami's new game engine, probably the best out there, Hideo Kojima's team made it for MG5.
The impressive thing about it is how good the performance is for how good it looks.
"EA's frosbite engine is close but doesn't get the performance, used in the new Rory Mcilroy PGA tour"
Power Pros is using FOX now, that's why it looks so good and physics should improve also.
This is what i love about Konami baseball games smooth as butter game play. Unlike MLB the Show running barely at 30fps.
I bet PYS is under development now to the FOX engine. Konami will do better sales from it.

Oh man I hope your right and it's releases. Either way think I'll grab this game as well. I remember the wii power pros and it had a lot of fun factor.

that's what japanese focus on is fun over GFX. Unlike SCEA with the show. That's the whole problem with the show game play is boring.

Straight from last years news letter in march. "KONAMI will continue to develop and distribute a wide range of baseball-themed games, to deliver the pulse-pounding excitement of the sport to an ever-increasing customer base."

Success mode is basically Road to the Show with more story and off-field events. It's always been tough for non-Japanese speakers to get much out of it due to the large amount of untranslated text.

The paid version is the one most people on here should be interested in, since that includes a season mode with no story elements to worry about and team management options that are easily translated.

Will it be in english?

No, but there will likely be translations for the menus a few days after release on spiritstranslation.com
