HardBall III is a baseball game for the Sega Mega Drive and a sequel (or update) to HardBall II (which skipped the console, although the original HardBall! was released for it).
It is thought the Mega Drive version was not originally officially licensed by Sega, but following the Sega v. Accolade court case, received a license during through production.
A rental version for the Nordic consumers was released, suggesting the game was probably released in Europe in small numbers.
