How to play
Two players play against each other on the left and right courts. First, hit the ball with a racket and hit the hoop inside the court. The ball will become one with the hoop and break the blocks to score points (if you break three blocks, the ball leaves the hoop). You get 1 point in your court and 2 points in your opponent’s court.
When the ball hits a block, it travels a certain distance before stopping. As long as it stays within your court, you can hit the ball as many times as you like. The ideal situation is to break the opponent’s block and return the ball.
A set ends when either player reaches 15 points, and the first player to reach three sets wins.
The racket will show you who has the right to hit the ball. The number on the bottom right indicates the time you have to think (when it reaches 0, the right to hit passes to your opponent).
How to operate
Use Controller I and II.
Use the buttons to move the racket back and forth, and left and right to bring it under the ball. Press the A button to hit it.
By adjusting the racket left and right, the ball flies forward in seven directions.
