Perfect Billiard

Challenge your friend to a game of pool in Perfect Billiard, a two-player sports title released in 1987 by Nihon System under license from Sega Japan and distributed by United Artists. Players use an eight-way joystick to control their cue, aiming and striking the billiard balls from an overhead perspective. The gameplay focuses on precise angles and strategic shot planning as you attempt to pocket balls and outmaneuver your opponent. The game features straightforward controls and a classic billiards experience, enhanced by the sound of Texas Instruments SN76496 chips. A curious quirk appears on the two-player options screen – an amusingly translated message reading "Serect Game." This title was originally released in March of 1987 and utilizes a Zilog Z80 processor to power its gameplay. Perfect Billiard offers a simple yet engaging arcade challenge for players interested in a tabletop simulation, presented with a distinctly retro feel.
