Well, most pongs that I've seen have a vertical dotted line down the middle of the screen (the "net") and I think Video Olympics uses the playfield for that. But there's no reason you couldn't have a reflected playfield of the same color as the background with just the outermost pixel or two set so you could use the collision detection, and then use the missile(s) for the "net" in the middle. I have no concept of what JoustPong is intended to look like, though, so maybe the net isn't necessary or maybe you're already using the playfield for something that has to be visible.
