Windjammers (also known as Flying Power Disc in Japan) is an arcade game released by Data East on the Neo Geo arcade system in 1994. The game is based on an actual real world sport, called 10-S, using a flying disc. The game Mechanics are essentially the same as Pong, with added values depending on where the disc hits the goalposts behind the opponent.

There are also six courts on which matches can be held.
* Beach - The smallest court available, 5 point zone in the center and 3 point zones on the edges.
* Lawn - Second largest court available, 5 point zone in the center and 3 point zones on the edges.
* Tiled - The second smallest court available, 3 point zone in the center and 5 point zones on the edges.
* Concrete - Same size as the lawn court, except with two barriers near the walls. Discs that hit a barrier will bounce off at an odd angle, making defense more difficult. 5 point zone in the center and 3 point zones on the edges.
* Clay - Same size as the lawn court, except with two barriers in the middle. Discs that hit a barrier will bounce off at an odd angle, making defense more difficult. 5 point zone in the center and 3 point zones on the edges.
* Stadium - The largest court available, 5 point zone in the center and 3 point zones on the edges. The central 5 point zone will grow larger every time a player scores more than once in a row, giving the player who is behind a greater opportunity to catch up.
