My thoughts on PlayStation ending physical game production

I really want PlayStation to revert this decision, If we get rid of physical discs on PlayStation, then we can’t even watch our physical movies and shows and get delisted games (If there’s no disc drive on PS6), we can’t borrow games from our friends anymore, we can’t buy used cheap copies anymore, we can’t resell the physical games online, collectors won’t be able to grow their collection of physical games (more specifically modern games), and there’s gonna be no way of buying a game that’s not in your region on PlayStation store without having to make another account in that region. This decision has caused massive uproar online and it will only get worse if the decision isn’t reverted. There needs to be a way for people to be able to buy and play a delisted game, and physical copies are basically the only way of that. I pray that they revert this decision similar to PlayStation’s other controversial decisions. Just because apparently some game that is making a globally massive splash won’t have a disc on launch doesn’t mean you have to follow suit.

What solo drills are elite and effective?

I'm a 16 year old that wants to be a pro baseball player (I know that’s extremely hard) but only has 2 hs years left and hasnt made it yet, i did basic fielding practice nearly everyday before moving on to self toss hitting and being pitched to by my dad and hitting the ball, I live at 2 houses, so i normally do self toss on sunday-wednesday/thursday and less frequently do batting practice thursday-saturday/sunday, I think i can hit 75-80mph and I do have some offdays, but AI keeps telling me I need to shift my schedule more, My mom is looking for a town ball for me to play in this fall and she’s buying me a heavy tee

How to make the difficulty higher in Eikan 9 in 2026-2027?

I like that I can finally actually control my players and not be locked behind a managerial system, but the problem is that it’s too easy and I made Koshien in my first year because of that, in 2024-2025, it took me 8 years, how can it make the game harder?

Good stadiums to use in season mode for teams that should get a new stadium?

I already have one for the Athletics, but what about other teams like the Rays? Especially since the Rays proposed a new stadium with the pictures of the vision of their new stadium looking beautiful, I’m talking about the domed one, but you can see through the windows and roof, I know you can’t really recreate it in mlb the show, but I would like to see someone try. Besides that, what other mlb teams should a use a custom stadium for? The mlb teams should be ones that should get a new stadium like the title suggests

Powerful Pro Yakyu 2026-2027: Realistic NPB career length before heading back to the United States as an American player?

I know you can’t really request to be posted to MLB in this game but I pretend my player got posted to MLB and basically end the career there. Since some struggling MLB and AAA players go to a foreign league, especially the NPB, what would be a realistic career length for my American player? Unfortunately the starting age options are very limited to 18, 22, and 24. I know 24 is the most realistic out of the 3 despite the fact it’s not the most realistic, anyway, what is a realistic length they should be in NPB for?

Lami the mummy girl from powerful pro yakyu 2020 is so adorable and underrated

I really wish she got more recognition and love, she is such a unique female love interest, I like how she’s dressed up as a mummy and then at the end of Egypt University success mode (if you date her) she shows her real face. I’m really happy they’re bringing her back for 2026-2027. She and Saya Konno from Pro Yakyu 13, 2024-2025, and 2026-2027 are my favorite love interests in the series, this is a appreciation post showing how cute and under-appreciated she is.

Some dumb little worry I have…

I still really like MLB Power Pros and I’m still dying for a new one, but here’s just one thing about the game that bothers me, I know it’s streamlined and simple, but, the fact that AAA rosters have under 10 at the start but only go up to 15-18, the fact that AAA is the only minor league, and the draft being 2 rounds, in fact, I have been worried about something similar in mlb the show, there's only triple a double a and a 15 man max high a (but for some reason, you can make it 20 players which the ai never does) in real life there's an extra minor league. I still wanna play that game (and Power Pros), but this worries me. The reason I’ve been talking about what I’ve been worried about is because I have OCD, I just pretend that the lower rated double a players are in high a. I know some may disagree, but I would like to see at least double a get added in a new potential MLB Power Pros game. This is just something I wanted to get off my chest.

Susumu plush

I have been trying to get a Susumu plush, I am not in Japan, I signed up for the point club, but for some reason, I can’t get anything because I’m not in Japan, I really wanted this Susumu plush (the same one that’s in the picture). I went on eBay, but there’s no Susumu plush of this kind, where else can I find him?

Off Topic, but I wanna post this here since r/MLBTheShow keeps removing it.

I have been getting worried that magical runs in between innings could (be) happen in my Road to the Show games, by magical runs in between innings, I mean by for example, 3-0 and losing team is at bat and fails to score, but suddenly next half inning, the score is 3-2. I have been getting worried about this because someone on Reddit said something like this was happening with them, but I only saw one person say this and if it were true, then I believe that significantly more people would say something about it. The only one person who said something about what I’m talking about used sim to next appearance, and I use show sim screen which tracks the simulation visually. The worst part is that if it did happen in my RTTS games I would just say that the game went differently but I can’t think how it would have gone. I have a question, if there were any magical runs, do players on still get their runs from it or no? I'm having quite some trouble finding answers for this online. I just wanna play a mlb career mode without worrying about this...

I wanted to make things different, and do a two way player in MyLife, this is a question about the Japanese version of the game. On the discord, I asked how can I make a good two way player in MyLife, and some dude sent me a gif that says you don’t, is this really true?
