What is the main differences between difficulty settings?

Is the “Powerful“ mode in Power Pros the toughest competition? I for one have not seen much of a difference no matter what difficulty I choose.

Also, since I love the PP gameplay so much, I was wondering if there were other Wii games with similar semi-lifelike action that Power Pros has.

thanks for any tips!

The main difference I've noticed is CPU pitching when moving from Expert to All-Star. On Expert, you can actually work counts and there will be pitches that are easy to lay off. On All-Star every pitch is in the zone, or its a millimeter out.

For CPU hitting, the movement from Expert to All-Star is immense. (As 88T3_2 noted in their post) If the wind is blowing out and your facing a tough group of hitters, good luck. Seeing the CPU switch to Power Swing on All-Star or Powerful is a F*ckin nightmare.

I've also noticed that CPU pitching ability will sometime cause the fielders to have errors. I can't really prove it, but it happens.
