Pong

Pong is a bat and ball game.

The idea is to hit the ball past the other player's bat. As the bats are rounded at the ends, the angle the ball bounces varies near the ends. Pong may be played with two players, or against the Pilot. There are four levels of difficulty.

Pong is the first simultaneous multi-user action game for the USR Pilot.

How do two players operate a Pilot at once? Turn your Pilot sideways! Each player operates their bat with two application buttons - either using the thumb like a rocker switch, or with two fingers.
