But I have a question for you. How come EWB baseball is not in the itunes store anymore? Seems like a simple fix or update would help the people who already have your game. For months, I looked for an upgrade on itunes, but I couldn't even find EWB baseball. The current game of EWB is playable because it is too slow. I almost had given up on this game until I saw your post above. When is the timetable for EWB baseball to be upgraded? Good to hear you’re still around, Eddie. But I have a question for you.

Eddie is just trying hard to accomplish something like this in his spare time. We owe him just respect for even trying, to be honest, because he simply is a legendary game developer. Nothing less. Just play his game EWB for a few minutes or read the Eddie Dombrower Wikipedia article. Just thinking right now about the mount visit in this game (don't know if it is in the phone's version, but I hope!): Pitching coach: How's the arm? Pitcher: It's fine. Catcher: He seems a little wild right now. Isn't the whole baseball universe in this little dialogue? Regards, Daniel G. I don’t think this is a money grab.

Isn’t the whole baseball universe in this little dialogue?

That would be awesome. I still like the Amiga's EWB and PC's 1.5 version best. Smoothness (and detail) was so cool in the graphics of version 1.5 that I still would fall in love with it in 2011 if it could be revived or even improved. Those players were like dancers on the green grass (wink wink ;) From my point of view it would be nice to have something similar to that. Or something entirely new, based on a newer approach. Just my few cents. Daniel I really like the graphics improvements idea. That would be awesome. I still like the Amiga’s EWB and PC’s 1.5 version best.

Looks like this version of the game is a big let down. Was a loyal fan but the lack of response and updates makes this look like a pure money grab. Sad to see.

I have the game on my ipod touch and it is moves really slow. I think since Apple charged $7.99 for the game, we users are entitled to an upgrade.

A million times thank you for bringing this to iOS. I was addicted to the Amiga 500 version back in the day and always pined for this game to be brought to a modern platform. Now I can relive the glory days. Just one request... please, please bring this to the iPad. The iPad, with its big beautiful display, is my main gaming platform now. Would love to have this game brought to Apple's tablet. Thank you. A million times thank you for bringing this to iOS.
