Side Pocket

The Game Boy version of Side Pocket is a slight modification from the NES version, featuring a smaller playing field (to compensate with Game Boy's screen), new set of soundtrack and a different screen layout. Like in NES version, the Pocket Game mode features 4 levels and the player starts with 5 lives. One unique addition to the Game Boy version is the ability to play single-player nine-ball mode, while in other versions this mode is limited only to two players. Enhanced remakes of the game were later released for the Sega Genesis, Super Nintendo Entertainment System, and Game Gear. This version features updated contents compared to the original NES and Game Boy versions, including revamped graphics, new soundtrack, and photo-realistic background sceneries during gameplay. The main game modes remain identical to the original, with several alteration on the Pocket Game mode.
