"Baseball Simulator 1.000" is a baseball game released on the NES, where a player can either control a normal baseball team or a special baseball team with secret hitting and pitching plays to boost their chances of winning. There are many special plays, but a few examples of this include:

*Ultra Hits

;* "Tremor Hit" -- The ball, after being hit, causes an earthquake on the first bounce, resulting in fielders being unable to move for a short period of time.;* "Missile Hit" -- If a player on the opposite team gets in the way of a line drive, they will be driven back to the fence and smashed.

*Ultra Pitches

;* "Iron Ball" -- The pitched ball becomes a lead cannonball in midair, making it almost impossible to hit without the batter also using a special play. On rare occasions this pitch is hittable using an ordinary swing.;* "Fire Ball" -- A super-fast fastball, which would regularly reach close to 120 mph.

However, a 'special' team had only so many points to use on special plays during a game, and after the points ran out, they played just like a normal baseball team (although they still had higher than normal baseball talent).

Within "Baseball Simulator 1.000", there is an exhibition mode, a regular season mode, and a team edit mode that allows the player to make his own players to form a customized baseball team.

A magic number appears during the regular season, telling the leading team how many victories they have to make until they are assured the pennant.

Games can be either 1, 3, 6, or 9 innings long. A season can be as long as 6, 30, 60, 120, or 165 games. Out of the 18 possible teams, only 6 teams can be used in a division/league during the season. It is possible to have normal and special teams in the same league.

Also, hitters on first place teams tend to lose their power when their team holds a 5 game lead or higher over the second place team. The same goes for the pitchers and their stamina. This also happens when the team that is playing at a particular time is tied with another team for first place.

Because this game was made prior to the ESRB, this game has not been rated.

Sequels

"Baseball Simulator 1.000" had one sequel, "Super Baseball Simulator 1.000", released for the SNES in 1991.
