Power Pros Forum

Well, here it goes, my first season log, hope you guys like it!

(I'll be doing it in a first-person view of the new GM [who is American] Jack Allen).

"Well, today is my first day. GM, and of a Japanese team, no less! Man, I hope I know what I'm doing."

I walked in to see the manager, Akinobu Mayumi, he greeted me in Japanese, a language that I have a decent grasp on. But still, he was talking way too fast. I'll have to work on it. What I could make out though is that the Hanshin Tigers seem to have not won a pennant in 25 years! The Curse of the Colonel! Well, I'll just have to fix that, now won't I?
We spoke for 2 and a half hours, and what we came up with was that with the addition of Kenji Johjima, the catcher position is solid, at least for now. And I also learned that our first game is tomorrow, March 26th! "Adjustments, I need to make adjustments." I said, everyone agreed, for they also thought that after a 4th place finish, we needed some core adjustments.

"I think that this is alright, sirs." I said to all the fellow members of the office of the Hanshin Tigers.
The meeting was finally over, and I was free to do as I wished, and, well, I wished to do nothing. I went to my new home, got settled in, and went to sleep.

How is this, do you like it?

This is great. I wish you chose the Yomiuri Giants, though. But it's fine. One question though:

Are you playing this for the PS3?

Well, the Giants are already a good team, I wanted to do a team where I could make them a lot better, and record the progress.

And yes, this is the Power Pros for the PS3, so 2010 rosters!

Nice! You think you could make a gameplay video?

Uh.... maybe, I'm not sure, I'll try, sometime in the future, I don't know if it would be that good though (SD TV, not so great video camera etc.) but yeah, I may try.

Oh and also, I'll post the first game tomorrow.

I really enjoy the GM perspective! It's pretty cool!

Whoa, Matt Murton's on the Tigers?
But, this is still gonna be awesome. I like how you picked the cursed team. I can relate to the fans there.

Can you try to trade for Tuffy Rhodes? BTW,I wanna be Murton's agent!

Well if I could I would, but two things, in this game you need cards to trade, put in success mode players, change positons etc. And also, I believe good ol' Tuffy retired last year, it's too bad, he was awesome!

Oh and sure, you can be Murton's agent

If we're doing agents, can I be Kenji Johjima's agent?

I had feeling you would say that, and sure.

I want a PS3. I really want to play Pawapuro on my Wii. Isn't there a channel or disc I can buy?
I was also wondering where good ol' Kenji was.

No actually all you need to play Japanese Wii games is an SD card, patience, and the homebrew channel, but be careful though, if don't install it perfectly, your Wii will be rendered useless, or become bricked.

I'll send you the site I used when I get on my computer, I'm using my itouch now

Hey, thanks, but how do I get an SD card? And my Wii can get destroyed? What are my chances at success? How much does Homebrew cost? Sorry for the question bombardment.

To can just buy at Best Buy or somewhere like that for like $30. Success, I would say 90%. Homebrew is free, DO NOT PAY FOR IT! And yeah, that's about it
