And the whole, you know... other console and mobile devices. But who's counting?

Seriously though, if you're a PlayStation owner it's a pretty easy decision. I don't know if you can use this mode for season or franchise either though, much less online play.

Anyone know if you can do an entire season in retro mode?

You cannot.

It is simply a pick up and play exhibition game mode.

Love that bat break animation.

Just another mode that will die quickly. Instead, why not use these resources to fix a broken online franchise?

I don't get it.

I'm guessing you missed the part in the gameplay and animation stream where they mentioned one of their programmers got Retro Mode working in only about a day of work?

Did you even watch the video or anything? They have mentioned a few times already that retro mode took hardly any time to implement whatsoever. I mean honestly, it's basically a new camera angle and some 8bit aesthetics and overlays.

The batting helmet of the Rockies is purple in the game, however they use a black matte in real life.
