Thanks for showcasing this game, it’s a great one. Also, it has an awesome cartridge label with two futuristic space dudes playing in a pool room with a neon glow and a window looking out onto a space station before DS9 was even a thing. Have a good weekend!
I'm sure SNES Drunk would call it a glorified "dad game" regardless, but fuck him--he doesn't understand the appeal of billiards as a living puzzle game. I never understood diet, let alone zero, soda. Seltzer? Sure. "Sam's Choice Diet Marble Madness" is not how I would put down something just on the cusp of greatness. It's a COMPILE game--not Marble Madness but it doesn't have to be. It's also a very good first outing for a company, assuming they developed and released other games on other systems. I find it keenly fits the scene and doesn't wrack your pulse into high-gear. I will go for this music even if presented a chance to hear Marble Madness for the umpteenth time. Also, I would never call a store brand product, not even Wal-Mart, a "cheap knockoff" because I take generic-branded prescription maintenance medicine and do not, for a moment, consider it a glorified tragedy that generic medicine costs less to produce, distribute and, yes, pay for. By the way, have you ever tried Wal-Mart's regular cola? I mean, I haven't kicked back a cola in years since you never find a caffeine-free version, but I remember Sam's Choice going between Pepsi and Coke without being too acidic like the former and foaming with bad aftertaste like the latter. These days, I enjoy their root beer and cream soda. Just be wary about the ginger ale--it causes me sneezing fits, it's that dry. Schweppes' ginger ale tastes better and has fewer calories than Canada Dry. But anyway, fuck SNES Drunk--he wouldn't know a good pool game if it sat on his face.
What an amazing game! Played it not that much, but my family. Pretty adult people, played this game on evenings with friends. Drunk after party. But it was an exception, when they played my NES. Good job as usual!
One of many games people own, rent, dowload, or found at a Goodwill on one of those Famiclone consoles/carts next to MUSCLE, Golf, that game involving a plumber in a land of mushrooms, and many more. My first introduction to this game was a rental in early 1998. This and Mega Man 3 were the games I played that weekend. I would have owned both until I saw it at a yard sale for 2 dollars each around 2003. I play this game if ever I want to enjoy some futuristic billiard fun.
Compile's NES outputs were great. My favorite being "Gun-Nac." Don't think I've heard of this one, but I could see myself sinking time into it. The music isn't too bad, either.
VS Com mode is the funniest for me. Because if you don't have another player to play this game, you can compete with the computer by taking turns. Also it can be frustating since the CPU tends to miss the less possible.
it's very easy to get 99 lives thanks to score multiplier especially at X20 you get extra life every X5 multiplier up to X35 and then every successive sink will give extra life and a multiplier increase all it takes to lose multiplier is either scratch a cue ball or miss a shot

My mom, although in her 40's, played NES along with us.
Lunar Ball was one of her favorites.
Alongside Mappy, Othello, Door Door and Tetris.
So I'm not the only one who had to give up the controller for mom. Good to know😀
Low g pool played against lime and salmon-colored moonscapes - Lunar Pool is super 80s, and it's an excellent first showing for Compile on the NES.

I remember renting this back in the day with my dad. He loved playing it.
I love this game! I remember playing with my cousin in 90s with 0 friction. Cannot stop laughing that day.

It’s a game super mario bros

This is such a cool game, it’s like if Arkanoid and billiards had a baby.
Ha ha, I remember this a game well when I still kid with my parents and my brother
Man, used to play this with my dad on weekends,
This really was fun for the whole family. We'd bring the NES into the living room so mom could play
Loved this game
I played this a lot around 2007 on an emulator knock off machine. So fun!
Legendary.
Nice game 🎮 👏 👌 👍 💪 🙌 🎮 👏 👌 👍 💪 🙌
Un juegazo que debiese estar en el Nintendo Switch Online.
Looks more fun than Side Pocket. I still suck at these games though.
4:50 Z COOLLLL!!!!👍👍👍👍
Yeah, that's the Z in the Zanac logo.
The chad version of billard 2008
This game deserve remake with ball physics and same level
Juego maravilloso. Especialmente en contra otra persona
I used to sorta hate this game, only until recently im starting to warm up to it. I still prefer Side Pocket tho.

Aku tidak tahu?..

Wasn’t this on a lot of bootleg multicarts?
and on VCDs?
(yes it does exist)
Oh No! The God Awful "BILLIARD 2008" bootleg. Yes it was on a lot of bootleg mumticarts.
These kids today would loose they're minds bc we didn't have cell phones or social media, we actually had to get together and ACTIVITY have fun.
Okay game
당구 포켓볼
Played this game once & I did not enjoy it. Probably one of the most boring games I’ve ever played to be honest.
