Rusty's Real Deal Baseball is a downloadable free-to-play 3DS eShop title notable for featuring the ability to haggle with Rusty over the price of various minigames (though only down to a specific amount; still gotta fork out real money, after all). With the Nintendo eShop shut down, the rest of the minigames are no longer purchasable without any modifications.

Regional Differences

This page or section needs more images. There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough pictures. Please fix this.

• In the Japanese version, Rusty is named "Darumeshi" and has a much different design, with squinted eyes and big teeth. He wears a sweater vest instead of an orange T-shirt.
• Rusty's wife, Mitzi Slugger, also has a different design, with more squinted eyes like Darumeshi's, as well as brown hair and a pink shirt.
• Rusty's kids have designs that are mostly the same, save for a slightly different color scheme and...dripping noses.
• Rusty's past mentor, Pappy Van Poodle, has a different outfit in the Japanese version, and is named Inuzo Toipu.
• Instead of offering Rusty donuts in the international versions, the player can offer boiled eggs in the Japanese version. The Japanese version also has a unique animation for Rusty peeling the shells of the boiled eggs.
• Nontendo is called "Hontendo" in the Japanese version and "Jintento" in the Korean version.
• In the Japanese version, Mitzi Slugger runs a bar instead of a café.
• The mailbox outside the player's house was changed from green to red.
• There's a lucky cat in Rusty's store in the Japanese version; this was replaced by a baseball statue in the western release.
• The boxes for the games are slightly different, with the characters on them having slightly different designs, mostly just color changes.
• The landscapes for 'Bat and Switch', throwing sections of 'The Aim Game', and 'Quick Catch' are slightly different. The Japanese version has these areas overlooking a hill and a train bridge. For some reason this was changed to be overlooking a river. There are also cherry blossom trees in the original version.
• In 'Drop and Pop', the head design which is the final tire you hit in each level was originally a daruma doll face.
• Distances are measured in meters instead of feet in the Japanese version.
• The T-shirt your Mii can wear has a black stripe in the Japanese version.
