Shufflepuck Cafe ports the Broderbund digital Air Hockey on Japanese Pony Canyon NES with its eccentric opponents in puck duels in space cafe. The representation offers first person table view with varied caricatured opponents in an offbeat ported Japanese sport formula. Without western release, curiosity for atypical 8 bit Famicom sport fans.

Collector interest

Shufflepuck Cafe on Famicom adapts the air-hockey game born on home computers, brought over by Atlus in Japan in 1992 in a marginal genre for the console. Strictly Japanese and without descendants, its interest rests on the oddity of a barroom arcade concept moved to cartridge and on a modest late-Famicom run. A supporting piece for those tracking Atlus's eclectic 8-bit catalogue.
