{{Nihongo|'''Air Batter [[File:TempoUpExtra4.png|72px]]'''|エアーバッター [[File:TempoUpExtra4.png|72px]]|Eā Battā [[File:TempoUpExtra4.png|72px]]}} is a version of this game and the 4th '''Extra''' Stage in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade)]]''. Here, the [[Air Batter]] is colored blue and the masks are different - an orange alien and a guy with a square head. The tempo is also increased and there's a new arrangement of the music.

Air Batter [[File:TempoUpExtra4.png|72px]] also appears in the [[Two-Player Menu|2P mode]] of ''[[Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade)]]'' where it is referred to as {{Nihongo|'''Air Batter 2P [[File:TempoUpExtra4.png|72px]]'''|エアーバッター 2P [[File:TempoUpExtra4.png|72px]]|Eā Battā 2P [[File:TempoUpExtra4.png|72px]]}}. The same changes apply.

*Although the game lacks a conventional [[practice]], the game will actually not start until the player hits a few balls correctly. The game was given a tutorial in the [[Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade)|arcade version]] and a practice session in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''.

*This game and [[Exhibition Match]] both show up in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', meaning the game has two separate Baseball-themed games.

*The name of this game is either a pun on the word "baseball," or it could be a parody of the 1987 film ''Spaceballs''.

*The aliens in the Superb epilogue are similar to the one in [[First Contact]], except gold-colored.
