Data East did a fine job with graphics and music and overall feel and atmosphere. It's a relaxed pool game where you also can play against a friend, or practise trick shots, or go compete all over the United States for the coveted trophy. You drive/fly from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, S.F to New York and then off to Atlantic City for the finals. I just love SNES games and this is a fine title, but nothing special - and way too short. Expensive at the time in '93, and a lot of dads bought this one for their kids.
