Pong2 is an open-source game based on the original game of Pong. Pong2 has improved features over the original. The paddle can be moved horizontally and vertically. 10 tracks of background music are available during game play. The first player to score 10 points in each level is the winner.

Special thanks to my family for there support during the development of this game.

Game Tips

  • Use the ball speed control (button A and B) to break through the computer defenses.

Installation

If you are using the Homebrew Channel, just copy the PONG2 directory from the archive into the apps directory on the root of your SD card. If you are using another loader, you only need "boot.dol". Consult the documentation for your loader of choice for the appropriate location to place these files. Launch the game using your loader.
