Reception

MLB Superstars received overwhelmingly negative reception. 8 out of 10, concluding, "In the end, this game will do what it's supposed to. It will sell a few copies to unknowing parents to go under the Christmas tree. But if just one parent manages to find their way to this review, and it prevents them from buying MLB Superstars for their child, this reviewer can sleep soundly tonight."

MLB Superstars should be avoided at all costs. The mini-game selection is astoundingly limited, and even those are nearly unplayable. The game features no saving graces."
