🎮 Play Side Pocket Online (SNES)

Side Pocket is a classic billiards simulation developed by Data East and ported to the SNES. Instead of standard rules, the main game challenges you to travel across different cities by scoring a target number of points on each table. With its lounge atmosphere and smooth ball physics, it remains one of the defining pool games of the 16-bit era.

Your objective is to reach the target score to progress by pocketing balls, ideally in consecutive order or into designated multiplier pockets. Use the Arrow Keys to adjust your aim, and press Z (mapped to the SNES A button) to set your shot power. You can apply english (spin) to the cue ball by pressing X (B button) and using the arrows before shooting. Press Enter to start or pause.

Hitting consecutive balls without a miss builds a combo multiplier, which is crucial for reaching the high score thresholds in later cities. Take the time to master cue ball spin—adding backspin or topspin is often necessary to leave the cue ball in a playable position for your next shot.
