I did this in Ubuntu and it worked for me with Python 3.4:

I ran a command which apparently upgraded pip and setuptools to the latest version, according to this guide in the docs, but did it as a superuser. It might end up not being strictly necessary:

sudo pip install -U pip setuptools

Then, I ran the install command for Pygame as a superuser as well:

sudo pip install pygame

  • The little update might not be necessary because by the time I ran `pip install pygame` with `sudo` preceding I had already run said update. – Alexandre Dec 11 '16 at 02:48

In Windows

1.open CMD

2.Path should locate where pip is installed for me it is C:\Users\qwrht\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\Scripts>

if python is in other directory follow steps in link CMD command to change directories

3.getting to the right path where pip is installed use command **pip install pygame.**in CMD

4.after Downloading pygame current version, Successfully installed pygame message will be displayed as shown

  • If Pip is properly installed, just going to C:\ should be enough. Then: pip install pygame will get the job done. – Tim Jun 09 '17 at 11:36
