What is Nostalgia Sim Baseball?

Promotional FeaturesThe current version of our software does not simulate games. All games are simulated exclusively at our main office with our proprietary sim and comprehensive database (over 500 stats per player record, including all splits and situations).

Version 6.0 Preview - What's New?

Version 6 of our software will debut late-spring-early-summer 2010 with a complete makeover of the interface. The new interface will feature an easier, more intuitive set of controls which make team changes a snap! How about slider (trackbar) controls, drop down (combo) boxes, multiple open windows on the desktop, drag and drop windows, tabbed reports, and fade effects (sprites)? They're coming! Version 6 will be packaged with our full database, opening the way for user-generated simulations in subsequent versions. A full feature list is not yet available, but here's a quick n' dirty preview:

  • A built-in trivia quiz challenge
  • Keep multiple windows open at once for easy cross reference
  • Enjoy player photos throughout the software!
  • Historic team logos!
  • Manager Tips!
  • Enhanced ball park information set when selecting new parks
  • Built-In glossary and symbol decoder
  • Built-In mini browser for easy website access
  • A 'reveal season' option added to the league configuration
  • Integrated database structure (sim database and historical database) on a single tab control
  • Drag and drop logo creation with automatic labeling and uploading
  • Multiple view ports for your main screen
  • Automated trade scans for all leagues with revamped trade logic
  • Greatly-improved game replays with an interactive scoreboard pager control
  • A 'Fire and Ice' display showing 'hot' and 'cold' players
  • All league installations handled in the launcher for improved installation process
  • Old packet download option
  • Completely automated software updates
  • Smart screen logic to remember sizes and positions of your open windows
  • Season add-ons (each MLB season beginning 2009 will require a $10 purchase ... members may choose to play without add-ons, but will be unable to draft newly added players or the most recent seasons of contemporary players)

An exact release date is not yet available. We will only release this version when we are absolutely certain of its stability across the full spectrum of Windows platforms. Because of the complicated nature of this update, it will release only as a "clean install" package. Members will need to remove existing software installations and reinstall their leagues. It is possible that all league operations will need to be suspended for 48 hours in order to make the necessary transition. Specific instructions will be mass mailed to everyone as needed.
