Please don’t end this series I need it in my life
does he know
Dam it's that serious?
if this series doesn't belong in my life then how come an egg bears uncanny resemblance to a based ball
This is how I felt about Big Ambitions… good luck brother
I loved the series he did with MALF a year or two ago. It's sad that people crapping on malf ensured that it's not happening again.
Oh boy, my favorite series! Sure hope that nothing comes to ruin this peak gamers transcendental outlook on winning and losing!
Twitch Chat:
Bro you have no idea how much joy this brings to the day
oh god no one tell him...
@@Blaurot the UA-cam audience for this game seems a lot less toxic
Despite the recent scuttlebutt, I'm still holding out hope that NL will be continuing this series with Malf. Just one season is all I need.
what recent scuttlebutt
the only recent scuttlebutt with malf i know (as a youtube andy) is malf doing the subway bit in london too much
@@litapd311 nah the scuttlebut is with chat, not malf aka backseaters tilted NL so he stopped playing
Maybe NL will realize that he isn't a PvP gamer. What makes him great/unique is the banter in chill games. SMB vs other players sucks, SMB with MALF is peak content.
@@DrZaius3141-2
hit that like button boys.
we can make this a youtube exclusive
5:56 I absolutely agree. Gatekeeping a sport and then telling people they don't know it is stupid.
The crack of your bat against a good tempo pitch is my light in the darkness, may the baseball days never end.
It’s time. The twitch chat/UA-cam Marty war is upon us. Take up arms, lads.
"youtube marty" never fails to make me laugh
he don't read the comments tho so it does not matter.
@@caribou3692 have you no pride? war is for winning
Time to teach those twitch turds some lessons
NL playing Super Mega Baseball gotta be the most pogful content on UA-cam at the moment.
Who's gonna tell him
@@gingermlg don't tell him... he's living in the good times
@@gingermlg I'm well aware, let me pretend all is not lost for a moment
Enjoy it while we got it boys
44:25 the best play ins super mega baseball history
NL as a viewer of over 8 years I beg you, keep this content coming brother. HOLD THE LINE
12:12 If I was the opponent I would've just resign right there
Recently had a zoomer call me insane for not only liking baseball but also being able to enjoy it on the radio. Hope everyone else’s day is going well
i love sports games they are so cozy, i am cozed out of my mind with how many sports games he's played recently.
co-op with malfy and never read the comments that would go hard
Hey NL, I want you to know that SMB3 w/ Malf was a huge highlight and beloved distraction from the craziness of 2020 for me. I totally get if you’ve already made up your mind, but it would truly be incredible to see Malf and you back at it.
Either way, the enjoyment has been bountiful in this miniseries and I feel blessed by the Pog Lord.
19:20 Damn that was heartbreaking, but it happens, brother. That was a good game
Great use of pinch hitter in game 1. Loving the series.
Oh my God. I binged super mega baseball 3 when that was out when I was on vacation. Lo and behold I am in the same spot and you release super mega baseball 4 content just as I was thinking, "man it would be sick if I had my favorite streamer's fake sports to keep up on this week."
I'm so excited.
as a former umpire + player, the reason u can run past first from my understanding ~
1st base is the only base where you don't have other running options - on 2nd and 3rd, you're frequently running back and forth because you have the option to return to the previous base, which means the opponent already knows exactly where you're going, putting you at a disadvantage. since this is your only option, you'll naturally need to sprint if you're going to beat the ball. by allowing you to run past the bag, you aren't forced to chooseb between slowing down or speeding up, instead, this rule allows the runner to sprint AND retain both options; either stay on 1st OR chase down 2nd
also umpiring baseball sucks worst job i ever had
I was smiling whenever he said "not my pitch" in the first game and it was a ball. I am thinking "of course that wouldn't be your pitch" but then realized I probably would have swung at half of them :)
Not quite my tempo
What a classic series. I miss these SMB4 videos :(
Jumping a car battery: from jumper to jumpee
Red to Red, Black to engine block/frame.
while red-red, black-black will usually work to start a dead battery, it completes the circuit instead of providing some kind of grounding causing juice to flow back to the jumper so it's less efficient but the sparks are kinda cool.
I don't know a thing about baseball other than the rules (mostly) but watching NL play Super Mega Baseball is a dopamine factory.
“Only watched my 80 year olds and people from Boston.” As some one from Boston I felt that
"We have a Houston Astros manager in the chat right now...." LOL.
Holy cow I think I've learned baseball from NL playing it
What a complicated game
My fav series of yours so far!
These videos make my day don’t stop baseball
The crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd. That's right, baseball's back! Hello, New York, I'm Bill McNeal. Join us opening day, live from Yankee stadium for all the action. The boys of summer and WNYX--a winning team!
Love this, commenting for the algorithm, and to keep it alive
The thing I noticed about the CPU on higher Ego levels, is that they hardly bite on close pitches so you have to paint the corners and edges of the strike zone to force them to swing. Its okay to waste a few pitches to setup a strikeout, but try to force the CPU to swing at a pitch.
Thank you egg man for this gem of a video.
It was weird when he moved the cam and it felt like he just stood up
He knows a surprising amount of baseball jargon for someone who claims to not be a fan
If he genuinely wants pitching tips:
He throws more breaking balls that move in and out of the strikezone than breaking balls that move >-< WITHIN the strikezone.
The former induces more called strikes and swinging strikes. The latter induces weak contact, flyouts, and foul balls. Both are important so he should balance it out.
And of course use fastballs to pitch tunnel as he realized in this video.
Every time I come back to NL because of pog content it lasts for like 3-4 videos before it's just back to super auto pets for eternity. Feels bad, I miss the egg.
The fact that people get salty over how someone plays super mega baseball is insane to me. like mlb the show id maybe get but super mega baseball really lol
Some people choose to tryhard at backseating instead of the game itself or even just in life in general
the hypercritical backseating is annoying in any game - theres a fine line in twitch chat between banter and comradery with chat, and chat just being assholes about every button press, and despite him avoiding best he could for most the video you can tell when he glances at chat and doesnt say anything in response, is just because its all the asshole backseating. I think it just built and this game got the axe for it, because unlike when people are annoying backseaters in sap or wildfrost, he can atleast spend a minute or two chatting and reset. But with this its pitch or bat every 15 seconds and even 3 guys being assholes consistently with every glance will get under your skin. Shame but twitch gotta learn to just watch and laugh.
This is probably my favourite series he has done, keep them coming!
Need to see this series stay consistent it’s my morning cup of joe
beggin the series to continue! he got me into SMB3!!!
Nice love this game thanks for all the content
Just picked up the game. Im not a baseball guy but this game is fun! Learning a lot from watching your content, keep it coming friend!
I feel down the field and baseball on me
Love that the Hot Corners have a player named Randy Mann and his number is 69
Not my pitch. On the hands. We simmer. Good eye kid.
Feeling pegged as a baseball fan, nl rlly is learning about the pitching meta(tunneling)
Regarding car batteries, I have had mine die several times because of a few different reasons, often because I was a new driver and a student in university who was taking naps in their car and forgetting to turn the headlights off. Or I would just chill in the car because it was the most private place available to me, and I wouldn't think about the fact that leaving the car running for a couple hours can kill the battery. Even though I've had to jump my car many times, it's been a while and it's very easy to forget how to connect the terminals properly. Anyone that acts like it is easy should not be trusted with your car because if you're not being careful and assuming it is easy then connecting the terminals wrong can be incredibly dangerous. Although on modern cars, I don't think it's that dangerous any more because the batteries are different, although it can still damage the equipment.
A title couldn't be more appealing to me.
Elite at listening to the radio
One thing that never felt right about these Super Mega Baseball games is throw power. It seems like the difference between like a 30 power throw and a 95 power throw is insanely minor. And that there is basically no reason to risk overthrowing.
If as an outfielder you throw a 30 power throw from the warning track to the cutoff man, it should bounce and roll to them.
Please do some multiplayer vids of this with the boys! Loved when yall played the previous game.
more baseball content !!!!!!! please :D
This man talking about not wanting to be on the side of highway because everyone is on their phone, im terrified being on the road because everyone is on their phone. I almost got rear ended by a guy going 75 while i was at a dead stop at a red light, the only reason he didnt hit me was because he looked up at the last second and swerved into the left lane
Never forget what the Twitch Andys took from us.
NL if you read this your super mega baseball series have been dear highlights in my UA-cam watching career, I’m sorry you haven’t found it as enjoyable this time from your side, I hope that can change and you can come back to this
NL talking about not taking the OT pack 1 pick 1, our man has never taken the elite removal spell P1P1, we gotta see NL fumble a Magic Arena draft one of these days
I would love to watch a coop serie of this… but the last one had really bad comments
Genuinely love super mega baseball, every time a new one comes out I eat up all your content. Fuck twitch chat
That's because baseball is the most difficult sport to play.
I live for this, Tape to Tape, and Wildfrost (I am scared that T2T and WF will not return)
twitch chat sometimes feels like the noisy kids in class who make the whole suffer due to the few. like nooo we had to cancel baseball during lunchtime because Timmy from math took a bat to the teacher's knee.
Shout outs to the other Action Shampoo users out there.
NL chokes more than the Braves. Still love him tho
Is green green grass of home a song about baseball?
Please keep playing, NL baseball is so pogged
I bought this game on sale for $16 and i am very pleased
I can't believe people still play sports games that try and be a sim that focuses on being realistic while there's the arcade-style sports games that focus on being FUN. SMBB is just so tight and well made for a game where the people look like celebrity deathmatch characters. Same goes for racing games. Honestly, I'd rather play GTAV racing compared to Forza any day, just because it's not taking away fun for the sake of realism.
Well, even though smbb looks arcade and definitely plays arcade ish it runs a complex simulation of baseball, so it's for everyone my kid can play with the mojo turned down, or I can play competitive ball , the game does both, and most people over look it, I know EA bought them and that made me nervous, but still a great game
Make this a youtube exclusive. twitch chat doesnt appreciate what they have
Please keep playing!
It's joever. Hopefully twitch chat shuts their dang mouths and we can get co-op with Malf.
NL mad at teams for taking Oline men. NL has not seen the Blind Side. That shit is factual my brother
WE'RE SOOOOO BACK!
These online matches are fun to watch but it really seems like NL isn't having fun.
I would really love to see an offline franchise season. Either solo or 2vCPU.
Chat sucks, stop backseating my favorite series! Go outside and touch grass. Let the man play.
Enjoy the pogs while we can boys and girls, they are sadly finite
I'll miss you smb 😭
Please, I need the pog content
Super Mega Baseball is great! Please make it youtube exclusive if chat is too annoying ❤
Please don't stop!
29:49 I hope to god this is satire
Nope
Ur comment about drafting tackles man couldn’t be so wrong, those guys play one of the most important roles a QB,RB,WR useless without good tackles and guards, jus bout this game tho for sale and it’s not to bad man!
How's about you make this into an offline series you don't play on twitch?
We need more SMB4. Dump the haters and sub in MALF again.
We still doing the tape to tape or is that too easy for NL now?
um ackshually GB is games behind
I concur 👍🏽
If this gets enough likes surely he’ll continue this series right? ? ? ? ? ?
that umpire voice acting is literally so racist lol
Bro what? It's a game titled "super mega", not really a name that screams intentional racial undertones.
Chill out and have a little more fun
@@connortivoli3161 I think maybe you might be the one that needs to chill out lol. I was just laughing cuz the umpire sounds really cringe lmao. also wtf does the name have to do with anything? they're not gonna name it racist umpire simulator
@@SkateFallen1424 you used the word literally lol your comment is structured In a literal sense.
YOU chill out lol
The name would indicate satire, like suggesting not to take the humor in the game in a literal sense.
@@connortivoli3161 bro I just thought it was funny lmao
@@SkateFallen1424 so both of us need to chill out?
Moreso I am the one who Needs to chill out.
*Me reflecting*
"Dang I'm also part of the problem."
I'm chill now
my favorite game is back lfg
26:19 can anyone please explain to me why that run to home didn't count? Noob to baseball here xD.
It’s because the other team got the 3rd out at first, so the inning was over. No runs count in this situation. If it was 1st or 2nd out, it would have counted :)
@@ItsLys0620 OK thanks, that's a rule I didn't know.
@@nobodyspecial7895 anytime! Happy to help!
NL knows nothing about the NFL draft😂
anymore... today, right?
Can express how disheartened I am that this uploaded before the CS:GO video and it spoiled outcome lol
This is too cerebral for twitch. it's like how chess is usually UA-cam marty. Except video game baseball is an even more pure contest of minds.
UA-cam exclusive?
Bro, tunneling a pitch means you grooved it. Right down the pipe. You do not want your pitching strategy to be Tunneling It.
For real pitching advice, you want to throw sliders that finish outside to same handed hitters. It gives the greatest perception of lateral movement. Fastballs feel fastest up and in. Offspeed stuff feels slowest low and away. When you are setting someone up, think about how they will need to move their stick. Make them change locations. Don’t throw a pitch that looks different, but goes to the same slot. They just practiced that movement. Try for a pitch that looks the same out of the hand but ends in a different slot.
Oh, and don’t always throw to the corners. They are learning that you always put it in the corners. Put some middle in, or middle low. That breaks your tendency and will get you miss hits.
Found the guy who ended smb4 for everyone. Thanks pal
@@connortivoli3161 I don't get it. How did I end SMB4?
frick the chat, baseball is fun :P)
I don't know this game well, but assuming you can change your lineup (because, why wouldn't you be able to?), I would put Casper batting either 1st or 4th. He has a high average and hits flyballs well. Maximize your potential to put baserunners on, score runs, and extend innings when you're batting. If pitching's a lost cause, which it seems to be, why not take the opportunity to run up the score a little bit?
