Rusty's Real Deal Baseball

The Player playing Drop & Pop: Reflexes

The game revolves around the player purchasing baseball themed mini-games from Rusty Slugger's Sport Shack, a shop owned by Rusty. Through the purchased mini-games, which are paid for with real-life money, the player may find various items, like a bouquet of flowers, which can be used to haggle the prices of the products at Rusty's shop. The player has the option to pay the full price, which the game attempts to prevent them from accomplishing, by pushing them towards haggling. When paying for full price, however, (after Rusty loses his mind that you are paying for full price) the player learns the backstory of Rusty's friendship with Pappy Van Poodle, his old mentor (and boss of the nearby shōtengai, if you have the Japanese version).[2] The game also features StreetPass and SpotPass functionality. In addition to finding out the backstory between Pappy Van Poodle and Rusty Slugger, you also get to see some footage of Pappy Van Poodle (he even blew his back out by cheering for Rusty's Sluggers) [3][4]giving the items needed to improve Rusty's life. Some of these items include nose hair cutters, a cooking lesson, his lost son, and 3 more.

The game was first announced on a Nintendo Direct in February 2014.[5]
