The problem with answering this question is that the transition from Billiard to Snooker is a gradual one - so whilst games existed with less than six balls it is unclear whether we can call this snooker.
In its earliest form Snooker was a combination of two Pool type games - Life Pool and Pyramid Pool. The red balls come from pyramid pool, and the first colour, the black ball, from life pool. Three other colours were added a little later, the set being completed with the introduction of the brown and blue. The inclusion of these initial colours was first proposed in 1875 - dates for the inclusion of the brown and blue are unknown. It is unclear how well received or widespread these initial alterations were, but by 1882 the rules were standardised for a new game known as Snooker, with all six coloured balls included.
One notable exception to the regular 6 coloured balls is Snooker Plus, a variation of the six-ball game invented by World Championship winner Joe Davis. The game introduced an orange ball (worth eight points) and a purple ball (worth ten points), to make a total of eight coloured balls, in an attempt to reinvigorate the game. However, the concept didn't catch on and Snooker Plus is now widely obsolete
yellow green brown blue pink black
No, the pink must not be touching the nearest red when the table has been set for the start of the game.
Similar to pool, snooker is a table top game with generally easy rules. Scoring is broken down by ball color. When one sinks or "pots" a colored ball via the white cue ball points are allocated accordingly. Red balls are worth one point, yellow 2, green 3, brown 4, blue 5, pink 6, and black 7. The winner is determined once all the balls have been potted and points are added up, highest score wins!

There are no golf courses on Antarctica. However, people have been known to bring clubs and golf balls to Antarctica. The balls they bring are always coloured, so that they can be found on the ice.

Movies have always been in color. There was no color in the entire world until the 1950's, so that's when color started showing up in the movies!
