A strange little side quest
One reason sports history keeps producing good game ideas around Billiard Blitz 3 Nine Ball is that its history is full of strange turns. Archery was already on the Olympic programme in 1900, boxing joined the modern Games in 1904, and basketball became a medal sport in 1936. That old idea kept changing rather than disappearing. Nintendo's Donkey Kong arrived in 1981 and introduced the character first known as Jumpman, who later became Mario. Not bad for a few facts hiding behind a Play button.
