MLB The Show has had a yearly release since 2006. However, it’s a first-party franchise for Sony, so it isn’t surprising that the vast majority of the franchise’s installments have never released on a Nintendo console. That changed last year with the release of MLB The Show 22. Well, it seems that this will remain
