Pimp my Pong - Image 1 


Thanks to a code that Captain_Hero sifted from the early Wiimote Demo source, the homebrew developer grafted rumble feedback plus Wii remote control to an old arcade classic. What resulted became Pimp my Pong, and it was named so, because coder Captain_Hero hopes to add interesting features that could only be Wii-inspired or simply all out fun.

Rumble feedback kicks in every time the ball bounces off a paddle, and tumble will also nudge in when a ball is lost. The author says that Wiimote cursor control has been added to the left bar, so players will have to prime their senses for incoming balls from the right.

We also noticed that coder PaRaDoX has a feature-filled Pong game in the works, and that the other homebrew game will feature online multiplayer on its next release. We'll keep an eye out for that, but right now, you can simply install this game in your HBC SD card, and give it a go.
