SuperUber brings Super Pong to The Victoria and Albert Museum, in London. Displayed for the first time at the exhibition Pelé Station, during the 2006 World Cup in Berlin, Germany, Super Pong is a game-installation inspired by Pong and Foosball, where up to 8 people can play. All the primary elements are present in this minimalist game: competitiveness, adrenaline, precision, and coordination. When you score a goal, you watch an animation inspired by Pele’s famous moves. Super Pong doesn’t need instructions, it’s simple and straightforward – it brings the minimalist aesthetics of classic video games to the contemporary audience.
