Recreating Pong
paigeoliver:
I need to play mine more often!!!! I still only have $11 invested in that thing. $5 for new handgrips and $6 for a cap kit (along with 4 hours of cleaning, 2 hours repair time, and 20 minutes to repaint the coin door).

You can make your own game with gamemaker.
It's an event based program that compiles exe files you can play without the system.
I got it and downloaded it and put my son's face in it's version of 1943. It's funny.
You can make about any game like that. I think there is even a pong prebuilt source file you can modify.
1UP:
Probably the closest you're going to get is th version of Pong on the Atari classics CD they put out a while back. I think I've seen it on the shelves pretty recently.
I'm not sure how well you can run it from a front end, but technically, it should be the only "official" version available.
Otherwise, I think there is a retro game box out that has some of those old pong/hockey games built in. Otherwise, I'm sure ebay has loads of em for a couple bucks each.
There's always Arkanoid, which IMO is a much more interesting game...
