About this game
Catch, If You Can! puts a fielder beneath balls hit by a batting coach. Each wave requires a minimum catch percentage: Easy needs 50 percent, Medium 70, Hard 90 and God demands every ball. Start with Easy while learning how glove position changes a catch.
The initial setup needs attention. Open Select Input and choose Keyboard even if Keyboard is already displayed, then define the directions and Button A/B. The original manual explicitly requires this step. Your assigned Button A starts play from the cycling title screens.
Left and Right run sideways; Up raises the glove. Combine Up with a direction for a high running catch, or Down with a direction to hold the glove at that side without running. Press Button A then a direction to dive, and hold Button B to run faster.
