Yeah you won't be able to get much out of MyLife and Success mode unless you can read Japanese since they are so story driven.

Pennant mode is definitely the way the go for non-Japanese speakers. The rosters are easy to manage due to all of the icons in the menus.

Looks like Amazon Japan is going to deliver the game on Monday next week.

My copy from Play Asia also shipped and will be here by 1030am tomorrow according to FedEx. Too bad I work until 330pm

Vernon already has the settings menus translated for Power Pros 2016 over at spiritstranslations:

Dunno if the Vita version's menus are different than the PS4 version's but I doubt it given Konami's recent history with their ports (they're usually identical).

Has there ever been any explanation as to why Konami's Power Pro and Pro Yakyuu Spirits doesn't have english or other region translations (spanish, french, etc. etc.) built into the game similar to other games on the market? Is it simply a license issue?

Just ran a youtube search for other games, even other Konami games, along with tags "spanish" "french" within the title and footage shows the translation built directly in the game.

I bought one copy of Konami's Professional Baseball Spirits PS3 once, tried navigating the menu blindly and played several games but decided it's simple too much of a hassle. Still a fantastic game for "play now" exhibition matches, but trying to get through a season is more work than I would like.

If only ...

Now i know after seeing this, the Fox engine is better than anything else out there.
Look at how the baseball transitions to a larger size when the pitcher misses his snap. Look at the Frame rates. It's smoother than Tennessee whiskey.

Makes MLB The Show look choppy.



Look at the Catchers expression when the pitcher gets crushed. It's priceless.

The game is indeed smooth, just played a bit yesterday was working on figuring out some of the settings etc. as this is my first experience with Power Pros.

Here is a stream of someone playing.
