Sequel
JV Games announced a sequel entitled Pong Toss Pro - Frat Party Games, also for the WiiWare service. It has similar gameplay mechanics, though JV Games attempted to address the concerns of critics of its predecessor on matters such as graphics and accuracy. It was released in North America on June 28, 2010 for 600 points, as opposed to the 800 points price point that its predecessor had. This was due to the state of the market. A trailer for Pong Toss Pro was released which contained several news clips questioning comments made by Blumenthal about his service in Vietnam. Pong Toss Pro was received better than its predecessor by critics, though the overall reception was still mostly negative. It holds an average rating of 48.33% on GameRankings. IGN's Lucas M. Thomas felt that while it was a better game than its predecessor, it was not good enough to be worth buying. Nintendo Life's Corbie Dillard agreed; he felt that beer pong wasn't exciting, and that even though it was a better game than its predecessor, it didn't work well as a video game. Not all reception was as negative; Nintendo World Report's Matthew Blundon felt that it was a decent followup, while Gamertell's Jessica Moen enjoyed the motion controls and said that it was good for people looking for a "fun party game".
