First, has anyone made him for the Wii?

Second, if I were to take the task on, what would his "skills" look like. Because I feel like making a "real player," and he looks like a possibility.

So since he is a starting pitcher, I will make his stamina in the high B's to low A's.

(I also found a report on his pitches)
-Tazawa features a low-mid-90s fastball, which tails in on right-handed hitters. His curve, which generally sits between 75-78 mph, is an effective offspeed pitch with sharp, late break. His slider, or possibly a shuuto, which he throws the least of all of the pitches breaks mostly down, and sits in the low-mid-80s. Tazawa’s fastball has enough movement for backdoor strikes on the outside corner, and to cause lefties to chase it out of the zone. His fastball/curve speed ratio is ideal, and will cause hitters to swing on their front foot. His slider, perhaps the most impressive pitch in Tazawa’s repertoire has potential to be an out pitch in the bigs.

This information is what I will use when figuring out how many breaking ball (1-7).

(I also found an all around report that would also help)
-Similar to fellow countryman Daisuke Matsuzaka, Tazawa is a nibbler. In the majors, this could will be a problem. Japanese baseball has notoriously large strike zones, and it has taken time for Matsuzaka to adjust; he’s arguably still in the infancy of his adjustment process.

This means that I plan on making his control lower than most starters in the league now. I was thinking D or even E

I have also read that his pitching form is unlike most, so I will have to look at it, then look at all of the others on the game.

One of the harder things to figure out, is his blue and red "abilities." If anyone has any suggestions about this, post it.

Any comments or suggestions, or if he has already been made for the Wii let me know.

Ok, so 35 people look at this, and nothing, not one response of feedback. /rant/ Sure everyone can feedback the free for all stuff, but not even put one post about a power pros subject /rant/

I plan on making him, but I need some feedback before I start...

So...lets try again...comments/suggestions?

I haven't seen him pitch live - anything I could offer would come from the same sources you are looking at.

Ratings;

His action is 3/4, comes out of the stretch. However there are reports that the redsox are trying to correct his delivery, by getting him to pitch out of the wind up

Top speed 95

Forkball (I would chose custom pitch fork with more change, cause the ball resembles a split finger or you could chose a split finger) rate this pitch as 3

2seam fastball 2

shuuto 2

Curve ball 3

Slider 2

change up 2

split finger 2

Stamina would be 172

control 126

I would give him ability wise good spin, hot head, fastball life. I 'll post my ps2 version with pitching stance cause I don't have my console here atm
