Madden, NHL, NBA and FIFA don't have it, so MLB can sit there saying "hey, look at us, we have year to year saves, continue playing your franchise or RTTS that you started three years ago in each new version of the game".

    And my opinion is it will boost sales. People who normally will spend the entire year building up their franchise or their RTTS player, the next version comes out, and they're hesitant to abandon all of that work, so they maybe skip that year or the next two years until such a major feature gets added that they can't help but not buy the new version. Now that they no longer have to leave their franchise or RTTS player behind, leave all that work behind, they may be more inclined to buy each year's new game, as long as there are some decent new feature additions or changes.
    Agreed! Wanted so badly for this feature in the former NCAA series.

    Yep. I'd be much more likely to buy NHL and FIFA every single year if they had year to year saves, if I didn't have to just trash hundreds of games of work and progress in franchises and create a players every year. But seeing as they don't, I instead tend to only buy NHL and FIFA once every 2-3 years. I most likely will now be buying MLB The Show every year because no matter what RTTS player or franchise I am playing as, I can just carry it over and keep the progress rolling without just trashing it and leaving it behind.

    And god knows I too wanted it so badly for NCAA. Every year we'd have the features tournaments around this time of year, and there would those of us vocally pleading for year to year saves, yet some people would always think it was stupid or pointless, that things like socks and the flags on top of the goalposts were more important. If I didn't love the NCAA series so much, and EA didn't usually include some decent new features every year that I wanted and made me want to upgrade, I otherwise doubt I would have bought more than a handful of the games. NCAA 14, maybe NCAA 12, NCAA 09, etc. I would have skipped all those other years in-between otherwise.
