Players can control volume and other audio-related issues in a separate menu. Pre-game menus are relatively straightforward and easy to use, allowing players to customize gameplay options to their liking. You may also choose from several fielding, batting, managing, and pitching options. Once more the cost of saving options, stats, and a season's progress costs the majority of room found on a standard memory card. There are no in-season trades.
Managers can manipulate lineup cards and fielding positions on the roster menu.
And the arms are always fresh and warm in the bullpen. Frankly, while I have fond memories of this system, on the whole I prefer the one used in ASB 2000, and even the TP2000 batting interface offers more options. Nor has the pitching interface changed much from that employed in BOT9's ancestors. The cursor can be concealed, helping to mislead batters. Where the game clearly falls short is in baserunning.
