Are there enough pictures on the Internet to help give visual aids about this game? Sure there are plenty of pictures of the box art and some in-game action pictures, but nothing really of Marvin, Alvin, the Fate Cards, etc. I think it would spice up the Wiki a bit.

If anyone knows where to get these pictures, post it up here, and it not, I can hook my Wii up to my digital converter and take a snapshot of anything in game to post up. Let me know if you need a specific shot and I'll try to get it.

o.O you have one?!?! That rocks dude.

Me taking pics of my not-so-flat-flatscreen TV is horrible.

Basically, take shots of everything XD.

/me Preps a long list.

Okay, here goes.

My first priority would be a nice shot of the opening menu, both Wii and other versions (I would cut these up to make a more snazzy front page).

Screenies of all "menu type screen" that ask for selections. I like the types of shots in the book, but they are so small, they're useless on a computer screen (too grainy/pixeled). Mostly for "how-to" basics...

I also have the PS2 version loaded on my PS2 hard drive so I can take pictures of differences between the two.

Here's a link to all of the pictures I took earlier

http://www.glenridgeposse.com/mlbpp/wiki/images/

They are somewhat interlaced (NTSC) and I don't have the means to clean them up, so if someone wants to take that job go ahead and see what you can do, otherwise we can use them as-is.

I think it would extremely helpful if someone could take a video of them creating a success mode character beginning to end (he would have to be good, though, like Ryan Soohoo, Matt Simms, or Reggie Jackson).

This would probably serve better than any walkthrough.

A video, even cut down would be well into 30 minutes.. if not 60+ minutes.

Besides, once you understand the tactics asked for (save/reload or ....) it's just a matter of rolling for the random event / successful gamble that is required.

And this is where the wiki comes in... describing all those cursed random events...
