3D Soccer is a two-player only sports game for the Emerson Arcadia and compatible consoles. Each team is represented by a group of four footballers (less than the 11 for real-life soccer) scattered around the field. The two teams are differently coloured: white and blue. The nearest player to the ball from each team is highlighted as yellow or black, and you can only control this player. Game play involves collecting the ball with your player, dribbling it towards the goal at your end of the field (or preventing your opponent from doing the same) and then kicking the ball into the net.
Baseball for the Arcadia 2001 is a passable rendition of America's favourite pastime. Players control each outfielder individually and can throw the ball to each of the four bases, but the computer controls the infielders. When a ball is hit to an infielder, the batter is automatically out. When a ball is hit into the outfield, the perspective switches to an odd close-up angle of the nearest outfielder, who can run right and left to try and catch the ball. Pitchers can throw fast and slow and curve the ball right and left, providing the potential for some crazy- looking pitches.
