As a primarily PC gamer with my only console being a switch, it’s for sure not ideal especially when playing online cross platform against friends, but I’m glad I have a way to play the show without having to waste money on an Xbox series s or something. I do wish they’d put it out for PC but I’ve accepted that that will never happen
Great review. Downloaded it after several years of not playing it. My son has a switch and the rtts is still a great and challenging mode. I can cope with the visuals understanding that it's a hardware issue. Just would love some spanish comentaries, baseball is so big in latinamerica.
That was an excellent review. I'm playing on Game Pass, but was curious if worth getting for my Switch to take on the go. Looks like a competent game with the normal reduced graphic fidelity on the Switch. Great review!
Thanks for the kind words, Scotty! I’m hoping to play the game more with a combination of Game Pass and the Switch. I didn’t do that last year although I intended to! Enjoy, my friend! - Danny
The second MLB enters the PC market, there is literally ZERO reason for me to own a playstation. This game is the only reason why I still have a PS4. I play on PS4 over the Switch version because the graphics makes the sports immersion just better.
I really wish this was a lot more detailed on the rtts part. Did they at least add more times to talk to your agent about trades and position changes and have it actually work? Will they finally call you up to the majors due to play and not overall? Can you fully progress offline?
I last played MLB The Show 22 and I can tell you what has been added since that game for RTTS. New MLB Network coverage of your RTTS player, whether male or female. New drone shots and the pitch clock. The stuff where you talk to your agent is new to me, since it wasn't in 22, but it feels clunky. Return of the combine. I am sure there are more little things but that 2 year gap makes it feel like a true upgrade from 22 for me and I never say this about sports games. Madden disappoints me constantly and NHL is mid with NBA being too much of a grind. I really love F1 though.
@@sO_RoNerY That's not a hardware issue that's a bad game design issue. All the things he said could easily be implemented without major problems in gameplay. We don't need a bad story just put that option to ask for trades in the menu.
Unless I see this game on sale for cheap then I might just skip out on this game all together. Most of the changes don't seem too good so it's basically just a roster update to me.
Sad about the Oakland A’s. I’m a former SF Bay Area guy born and raised in Redwood City & Newark. Giants fan! Moved to Washington back in 95. Yakima. I’m very upset about how Oakland has been treated by the City. I’m sure the Giants will get an increase of support now, which is great for them so if the A’s end up in Las Vegas I hope they go to the World Series!!!
Love this game. I don’t follow baseball like that, but I’m impressed with the presentation and gameplay. Last time I played a baseball game was on 16 bit genesis. Excellent review
Thanks for the comment, Marco! I know a lot of people dismiss it, but I also had quite a bit of fun with The Show on Switch. I love old school games from the 16-bit era, though! I didn't have a Genesis, but an NES and SNES. I loved RBI Baseball and Ken Griffey Jr. Presents MLB. - Danny
I'm wondering if they fixed the bug from 2023 , in franchise mode you couldn't play with a custom jersey or team...it worked in 2022 but 2023 was broken....I hope they didn't copy paste 2024 with the same glitch
23 was a disaster, if you create a player with black hair in game looks white and viceversa 😂 24 looks 10 times better but the crowd still looking terrible.
Does it lag pitching or play terrible online dynasty? Want a switch version the 22 one was awful on switch. It was okay for just franchise, but online dynasty was too bad to play compared to consoles
My DD works. Crashes only occasionally, however it crashes at the worst times in mini season games for me. Conquest is fine. At least for me. Hasn’t crashed on RTTS for me yet
I didn’t get super deep into the mode, but there’s not a whole lot different. Some broadcast elements are smoother overall, which is nice. Performance is on par with The Show 23. Is it worth buying? If you don’t mind restarting your franchise from zero, sure. New rosters are also here, too. - Danny
Sorry for the late reply. For fielding, things are relatively smooth. Not perfect but I’ve never had any issues with the gameplay because of it. - Danny
This was great but I really want to know if they fixed the RTTS bug where you get no offers during free agency and your contract is automatically like 5 years. And the fact that your agent rarely pops up to ask if you want a trade.
That’s not a glitch. That’s how the game has been for over a decade. If you play decently, you are locked into your rookie contract which is five years long.
I only have ps4 but I really appreciate your presentation and answered some basic questions I always have. Like you I set up my player skills and auto-field for less stress more easy fun! So, hey thank you! And… PLAY BALL! ⚾️
No Stadium Creator, no major changes, so MLB the Show 23 remains. Having the ability to add your rosters and seasons from older editions instead of starting from new would have also been a draw.
When is MLB the show coming to PC we need it on PC it’s been long enough and it’s the only baseball game to not release on Steam. There is no MLB game on Steam and we need one cuz 2K fucked up and stopped releasing MLB games if they continued and never stopped there would have already been a MLB game on Steam cuz 2K loves making all their games available on all platforms!!!

Did you buy the physical version or the game off of the eShop? Either way, yeah, having an SD card is almost always recommended by the publisher. The Switch only has a max 64 GB of storage (for the OLED model) and that’s not even enough with system files and the like taken into account.

Go to a retro video game store that sells nes to ps5, all classic consoles. They were selling 128gb cards for 9.99, 20 for 256gb. Dont get scammed by Best Buy or GameStop over pricing the gb cards for the switch
This game can barely run on Nintendo Switch and looks god awe full on Switch we need it on PC ASSP WITH THOSE AMAZING GRAPHICS AND REALISTIC GAMEPLAY!!!
Everything on switch is horrendous. Because everything is washed up. Even their own games look meh. Nintendo doesn’t care. They will always be far behind in technology.
@@sO_RoNerY… Not true, some games look just fine on switch, it’s got the power of a PS3 basically, which isn’t bad on the go.. It’s not fair comparing it to a PS5 or Xbox one X…
Not sure that I like that they hired some forum of DEI consultant. Woman major league needs stadiums and a showing. Something I would defiantly watch. I want to get. However when I google I get entry after entry of game crashing. Story mode should not be about one color. Albert Pujols would be great. Ozzy smith. And all stories should Cary from season to season. Download if you will. Just in case you want to do again and again.
Kinda, yes. The Show’s website said: “We had the opportunity to hear from Mollie, Narrative Designer, and Kelsie Whitmore, the first female player in an MLB Partnered League, member of the Women’s USA Baseball National Team, and 2022 USA Baseball SportsWoman of the year.” You can read more about that here: theshow.com/news/mlb-the-show-24-unveils-road-to-the-show-women-pave-their-way/
man this is disappointing, I want to like the Switch so badly, I love the controller, love how portable it is, but I just can't justify spending money on a console with this level of graphics and frame rate, it's like buying a 360 in 2024
I bought a switch lite a few years ago and it's probably my favorite console I've ever owned, basically the modern equivalent to my old Gameboy advance. Yeah it can't run everything but I still love it. I've owned a steam deck and loved that too but the battery sucked and it wasn't very portable.
Got the game yesterday. Probably the best baseball game played on the switch. I had a blast playing it today. The hair on the characters looks like wigs. Besides the graphics, it plays very smooth on exhibition mode. The storylines mode are great too,
The atmosphere is incredibly boring, bot much arena music, chants or organ like real world stadium. This has been overlooked for years, and lends itself to be a bit of a boring and unreal experience, and I hope it gets some attention!
To be fair, I turned off the game’s music to avoid copyright issues. There is a full soundtrack that plays in menus and even at the stadiums. More chants of some kind would be good here, for sure. - Danny
Bringing the show to the switch was a bad idea. PSP looked and played better. With the trash switch hardware they have to keep advancements to a minimum so they can keep it on the switch. Switch is holding back the show.
Definitely not a looker on the Switch, that’s for sure. I agree, man. Not sure why they don’t do a PC release, especially in this day and age. It’s not like the game is exclusive anymore or anything. - Danny
@@TheFamicast yeah, and people can easily use their PC's the same way.

MLB The Show = PlayStation Super Mega Baseball = Switch And I find myself playing Super Mega more,like way more... But if you own Switch and PS then there is no need to even play the Switch version, it's awful in comparison to the PlayStation version

How do you get so you can hear commentary?
You need to download the game
How do u use this game when I start out it’s rangers vs diamond backs and I can’t get out of this game to any modes or picking teams
