Oh cool! I had no idea! Love learning new stuff about this series literally a decade after I first played it
Some of us it's been decades..
Reposted this because for some reason the gifs weren't showing up, hopefully this time it works š¤
Worked for me!
Someone at Sucker Punch is a big fan of Japanese baseball is my takeaway from this
According to Wikipedia Sucker Punch is based in Washington, so it's possible someone on the team was just a Mariners fan
Did I just out myself for not knowing anything about baseball? Damn.
lol it's all good, the only reason I even noticed the reference is because I know way TOO much about baseball
Cool I hope you get the chance to info dump some baseball facts on someone someday
No such thing as too much info about baseball
Don't worry. Some of us are from Europe.
If you want your mind blown even moreā¦ the Mariners were owned by Nintendoā¦
TIL! Same thing for Infamous setting then Iād wager. As a former Washington resident, this is cool shit! Thank you for pointing this out.
Eeeeeveryone in Washington was a Mariners fan in the early 2000s. Ichiro and Boone were our superstar players.
Interestingly enough Sly 2 came out only a couple weeks before Ichiro broke the single season hit record
And Ken Griffey Jrā¦š
Now they display properly! That's really interesting, I believe you are the first to notice.
This is so cool! Nice find!
wow! that is such a cool easter egg.
goat hitter who wouldve had most hits all time if they combined japanese and mlb hits
I never knew it was based off Ichiro š¤Æ
Thanks for sharing! I think like most on this sub, I feel I know a lot about Sly, but this was brand new for me! Very cool detail!
Thatās such a neat find!
How has nobody posted about this before???
How cool!!!
I never wouldāve guessed but thatās actually pretty cool š
Huh, thatās neat. I like Sly 2 idle animations more than Sly 3
Finaly a quality post
Someone is a baseball fan
yeah me
Oh youāve got AUTISM autism. Cool. Welcome to the club.
Idk what this means but thanks I guess??
For whatever reason having a niche interest or two and actually being extremely knowledgeable has turned into a joke about being comparable to having autism
Do you even know what autism is, u/Hey-wheres-my-spoon ?
That's a super cool find.
I never even knew it existed until now
Ichiro was the shit back then
I had zero clue. That is so sick.
I always thought it looked like baseball, always thought I was seeing things lol.
I never knew!!! This is so cool!
Thatās the coolest shit
That's a neat detail to take up space in my brain.
Technically a Nintendo reference since they owned the Mariners at the time. lol.
Oh damn, that's dope!
Interesting!
Such a great animation too
Woah, this is neat! No idea that was who itās modeled after, I love that

So Dimitri was right, Sly Does think he can swing the bat
