Championship Pool — About this game
Championship Pool brings a broad selection of cue-sports formats to the NES, including tournament and party play for as many as eight players. The aiming system combines an overhead or close-up table view with a phantom-ball guide, adjustable power, fine aim, spin, and called shots where the rules require them. Beginners can practice freely, while experienced players can work through structured competition and tune speed, accuracy, and touch across a variety of billiards games.
