Just played it, and I swear I've seen that gameplay screen in another game. Maybe it was its self, but I am not sure...pretty good though, just played.

did you play a cart of it, or a ROM?  if it was a ROM, please post the gameplay screen.  if it was a cart, please describe.  I am very curious about this! ]]> "Major League" for Famicom http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=55604 2011-09-03T23:36:47 -05.00 Sportsplosion 7 "Major League" for Famicom http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=55604 2011-09-03T16:36:56 -05.00 Sportsplosion 7 ]]> "Major League" for Famicom http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=55604 2011-09-03T15:51:31 -05.00 Sportsplosion 7
There's one on eBay. I don't know enough about Famicom to know if this looks like a pirate or whatever, but it is at least in a real cartridge of some kind here. ]]> "Major League" for Famicom http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=55604 2011-09-03T14:35:24 -05.00 Sportsplosion 7

So I found out this existed the other day, and let's just say I am very, very curious about this game. Released only in Japan, this is not that crappy game "Major League Baseball," but a decent baseball game with tons of silly animations that is apparently licensed from the famous-ish Charlie Sheen film, "Major League." Through playing just a bit of a ROM it doesn't seem that this game has much to do with the film besides including the logo on the start screen, but... Why only in Japan? Why license the game at all? I guess the movie was big in Japan?

Anyway, I'm having a hard time googling this game, so I can't find any info, and I was wondering if anybody else could help learn the story behind this game. All the websites I find either just say it exists or at most provide one or two screenshots, so I'm at a loss.
