Summary
The first title in the World Series Baseball series, the game was a major advancement in Genesis baseball games in that not only did it include licensed players and teams, but also contained relatively accurate gameplay for the time.
Several more games were released in the series following the original, up to World Series Baseball 2K2 on the Xbox. After that, Sega contracted with 2K Games to take over their sports game contracts and the series has continued as the Major League Baseball 2K franchise, which thanks to 2K's contract with Major League Baseball is one of only two MLB video game series currently on the market (the other is Sony Computer Entertainment's MLB: The Show series that only appears on the PlayStation systems).
