I always thought that the reason why baseball didn't have fielding was due to complexity issues. The game was introducing a completely brand new thing to the world of games, and combine that with it wanting to focus on people who had never played a game as well, and I think it would have just been too much at launch. We did later get a more complex game all around in 2008 with Mario Super Sluggers, so I think it was just to avoid alienating people.
Agreeing with this, and in baseball, there's stealing, getting hit with the ball, your foot or any part of your body hitting an active ball (where it's still in play, not returned to pitcher), completely screwing up pitching, so on and so forth, so yeah way too much coding, I think it's nice as is despite how frustrating
The voice lines thing just might be different people working on localizations than the original Japanese version. The announcer likely did dozens of takes for each line, and they jusy picked which ones they wanted
Wow! As a kid, i had the 1.01 copy of wii sports, and was used to the animation playing in the beginning of baseball, and recently i picked up a wii and wii sports (since i sold my wii awhile back) and was confused why the animation wasn’t playing at all, turns out i have the 1.00 version now. Thanks for clearing that up!
@@Plyd823 I have a mod called Storm city made by JimmyKaz and it features the Angle test map. I don't have any video of it right now, but I could record some.
If you consider doing another episode on unused data, I think you should cover the unused code that has been discovered for this game! ( tcrf.net/Wii_Sports/Unused_Code ), including debug menus and debug text prints. Another interesting thing you might be interested in are the findings on the original sources for some textures from this game and Wii Sports Resort ( twitter.com/B_squo/status/1395821591402098688 ). Basically, the devs owned many stock photo albums that they used as a base to create the textures. That thread shows the ones that have been found so far.
hey! I'm aware of the debug menus and stuff from tcrf for wii sports, just didn't have the time to put it in this episode. I wasn't aware of the stock photos tho however so this is very cool information for me! thanks!
@@Plyd823 Cool! Also forgot to say, another interesting fact is how most (if not all?) golf course minimaps (which are actually 3D models) use early versions of the golf courses textures, seen in E3 2006, as well as in a couple of the unused golf courses: twitter.com/B_squo/status/1402621980684193793
@@Plyd823 Another interesting fact is that the Mii body animations have unseen movements for the arms, hands and fingers, despite Miis not having them: watch?v=ZGReMUljDLQ
I never could get an answer on the Wii sports baseball. What version of baseball is it? where you just hit the ball and don't run? Wait to see how many bases? any help?
Could you do one of these for splatoon2? ik it’d take ages to make but I reckon it’d be really interesting, if you want I can draw you art for it for free

Thanks for explaining additions on version 1.01 because I have the 2006 one and I was confused in why these details weren’t there
Thanks for watching!
Oh, Wii discs don't update automatically. Also you have 1.0.
@@sandyred1140 he meant 1.01
@@goomba3092no he meant 1.0
Imagine how much more consistent baseball batting would be if the bunting stance was never left out
I find it interesting that so much was unused in a game that's so neer and dear to these peoples hearts.
Love me some wii sports knowledge
I'm glad you enjoyed
@@Plyd823 ぽお
that thumbnail is classic in it's own way
A deep dive into Wii Sports Resort, Wii Play, and Wii Fit would be incredible to watch. Keep up the good work!
I would love to do some deep dives in the future. Thanks for the kind comments!
I found your channel through a friend of mine, and this actually seems pretty decent! I just subbed!
thanks! I appreciate it!

Imo Double eagle is weirder than Albatross, since Albatross is the correct term. Double eagle sounds strange to me.
i just came across this video in my recommendations, and i didn’t even know there was an unused baseball animation
amazing job on this video btw
thanks man, appreciate it
Omg that was such a good video!! So excited to see episode 3!
thanks! I'm excited to make it!
Congratulations on hitting a thousand subs!
Nice video!! Saw your 1st video and I loved it, watching this one was fire. keep it up!
thanks man!!! hoping to come out with these type of videos more regularly!
oh wow i didnt know that there was unused courses in wii sports. i always love seeing inaccessible things be accessed in games
dope vid mate, ty for the entertainment and secrets :PP
Nintendo thought of it as a tech demo... WOAH LOOK AT THOSE SALES wait you forgot about 1.02
1.0.1 added the Wii Condom
LMFAO
0:57 POV: you walk into another class room by accident
Video Quality and talking is incredible for 800 subs, keep going you have great potential.
Thanks a ton!
Other than some audio leveling this video was straight gold plyd !
thanks! I made this a long time ago so I'm much better now! hoping to make a new video relating to this soon :)
3:13 We need 'this word' (Albatross) to be said in the UK version of Wii Sports.
3:27 This will replace the poorly mentioned one in the UK.
Love that alaska clip
a true classic
Man you deserve way more subs than what you have
thanks man, appreciate it :)
The lag strike can also happen on the PAL version of the game in the strike text
Will double play and triple play be in Nintendo switch sports?
No wonder I don’t get the lineup and the throwing out on Wii sports baseball and boxing replay because I updated it to the latest version!
I find it hilarious that digital doofus unintentionally enabled the unused bunting pose in his Baseball Corruption Craziness 2 video.
I sold my wii and my copy of wii sports and now I bought a new wii sports disk and I have version 1.0.1 AUGH!
1.1 is still a faster version for some of the speedrun categories!
@@Plyd823 NICE!
found this video randomly, very interesting! keep it up
I wish you could also do a series called Wii Sports Modding... :(
I could do a series in the future about Wii Sports mods
God I will be old when Wii Sports will turn 20
solid video my dude your stuff is underrated!
Your videos are great. Keep up the work. You definitely earned my sub!! 👍
Both of the "Nice birdie" voicelines sound like Sonic The Hedgehog
1:52 The same thing happens in Switch Sports. I’ve gotten it around 10 times in a week.
POV: you pulled out gum in class 0:56
There actually is a way to win in the test course. You just have to get the ball in the bunker test part, and let it roll to the bottom.
do you have video?

oh btw mate whats the bg music at the beginning of the vid ?
"entitle base hit" is how you describe a Ground Rule double in a Science paper.

great video now I get to know more about wii sports
thanks man!
I have version 1.00 and it has the cutscenes and everything
I'm convinced baseball is impossible to understand if you didn't grow up with it
I never could get an answer on the Wii sports baseball. What version of baseball is it? where you just hit the ball and don't run? Wait to see how many bases? any help?
Also in the PAL version of the game "Time" is replaced with "Time out"
Isn't the faster bat swing used in one of the training games for baseball?
My gut feeling for why they changed the Nice Birdie line is they just mixed up the different takes.
maybe they thought it was funny
I have 2006-2008
this means you have the wii sports + wii sports resort combo disc
Such a cool video. Very well done.
Thank you very much!

Also funny how it says Stroke 1 on Stroke 2, and hole in one on stroke 3

i'm surprised I have what I already have...
lag strikes occur to me quite frequently. hm.
the quality of your hardware can also affect the frequency you experience lag strikes
