Basketball is the sixth videogame from Taito and maybe the first basketball videogame ever!

Basically, it's a pong variant where each player control two players (defenser and forward) at the same time with their unique knob (they thus can only move parallely).

The ball reacts as a normal pong game, but the the only way to score is to direct the ball into the basketball goals (from the top).

The gameplay is time limited. The timer is displayed at the top of the screen.

Each goal score 2 points.
