Description
About This Game
Lunar Pool takes the historical ball game of billiards and reinvents it
with a unique and futuristic flair. The rules are simple. All you need
to do is use your cue stick to hit the white cue ball, causing it to hit
the other numbered balls and make them go into the pockets. You can
enjoy nearly unlimited game play with 30 tables, 2 different ball
arrangements, and the ability to change the degree of friction on the
table. You can also play against a computer or another human player, so
try challenging someone once you’ve got the hang of the game.
This classic game is part of the Virtual Console service, which brings you great games created for consoles such as NES™, Super NES™ and Game Boy™ Advance. See more Virtual Console games for Wii.
