"While this isn't a game that sets any new standards, it feels like a marked improvement over its predecessor, Tennis in the Face. With improved stage layouts, new collectable stars simplified yet more challenging gameplay and clearer goals, Baseball Riot is a satisfying follow-up. However, the art style, animations and sound effects have all been basically copied and pasted from the first game. If you played that game, then you will know almost exactly to expect in those regards. Much like with TITF, this game will appeal to people just looking for a small smartphone-type of game to pick up and play occasionally. It doesn't take long to beat the stages with the basic requirements, but if you are the type of player who tries to get the best rating possible on each stage, then there will be plenty for you here. While I felt like this game was an improvement over the original in terms of its gameplay, none of its other features were improved enough to affect the overall score. I'm going to give it the same rating with a very solid 7/10"

Knuckles Baseball is a handheld LCD game designed for quick bursts of action. You press a button to catch baseballs thrown by Sonic at timed intervals. Each successful catch moves you closer to advancing levels which boost the game's speed. The simplicity of the controls masks growing difficulty as timing becomes tighter. Single player mode focuses entirely on high score chasing through progressively faster rounds. The game's odd regional split makes it a niche collectible. Only released in some areas during 2004 Happy Meals while other regions got a different Knuckles title. No online elements or multiplayer options exist. Despite its brief release window the mechanics create a surprisingly addictive rhythm challenge. Best known for its connection to McDonald's promotions rather than gameplay innovation.
