This game made me sad. It's as barebones as they come, any experienced programmer can quickly recreate pong in no time considering it's a video game from the early 70's. Apparently this is a "remake" of Pong but I'm pretty sure part of the appeal was the simplicity. They added other modes but I'm not sure how penguins waddling around and tornados appearing is going to enhance the experience. The presentation is also poor despite being a GBC-exclusive game... the AI is very easy to beat on even the hardest difficulty and there is just nothing to this game, nothing to keep you playing. I have no idea how the console versions of this game are, but this is painfully low effort and is just another stain on the GBC library.
