INTRODUCTION

Feel the force of pins flying madly on your very own bowling alley. Super 
Bowling brings the excitement, challenge and realism of true bowling right 
in your living room.

Four cool characters face some tough choices: What size ball? Where do I 
stand? Where do I aim? How much spin should I use? How hard should I throw 
it?

But thats not all. Weve got real physics at work here. Anything can happen 
on a 60-feet of pine and maple. Best of all with Super Bowling you dont 
have to wear someone elses shoes.

GAMES

Turkey Bowling-Is a traditional 10-frame game of bowling, with up to two 
shots per frame and normal frame-by-frame scoring. In Turkey Bowling, a 
score is assigned to each of the 10-frames based on one of three 
possibilities:

1. Open Frame-An open frame means that after the player has taken his or her 
tow rills for that frame, there are still pins left standing. In the case of 
an open frame, only the pins that were knocked down during that frame are 
added to the players score in that frame. The highest score you can get in 
an open frame is a 9.

2. Spare Frame-When the player takes two rolls in a frame and knocks down 
all 10 pins. A spare is indicated on the score sheet by a diagonal line 
across the frame score box. Spares are scored as 10 pins plus the total pins 
from that players next shot. The total of 10+ one shot is added to the 
players score in the frame of the spare. The highest score you can get in a 
Spare Frame is a 20.

3. Strike Frame-A Strike is recorded when the player knocks down all
   10 pins of the first roll of a frame. A strike is indicated on the
   score sheet by and X through the frame score box. The highest
   score you can get in a Strike Frame is a 30.

Golf Bowling-On Golf Bowling, the basic rules of golf scoring are applied to 
nine holes of bowling. Each hole will be represented by a pin setting that 
is assigned a par. The par for each hole is determined by how many rolls it 
should take a typical player to knock down all the pins in the setting that 
appears.

If the player can knock down all the pins  in the number of shots needed for 
par, he or she will receive a 0 for that hole and will be even with par.

Getting all the pins down in less rolls than par will result in a negative 
score equal to the number of shots less than par. For example, knocking all 
the pins down on the first roll of a Par-2 hole will result in a score or 1 
or one under par.

If it takes more rolls than par to get all the pins down, the player will 
receive a positive score equal to the number of shots more than par that it 
took him or her.

The objective of Golf Bowling is to record the lowest possible score after 
nine holes.

Practice Bowling-You can try out different shots in practice bowling by 
setting the pins yourself one practice frame at a time.

After each shot you take in practice, the game will return to the pin 
settings screen, where you can set the pins up again to practice some more. 
To leave the practice mode and return to the game selection screen press the 
Select Button.

STYLE AND STRATEGY

Character Bowling Strategy

Each of the four characters in the game has a unique bowling style. Using 
anyone of them properly can get you the strikes you need.

When comparing power versus spin:

Remember that good spin is essential to getting the ball to follow the ideal 
ball path for a strike. IN addition, the faster a ball goes down the lane, 
the less time it has to spin and will therefore not curve as much as a 
slower ball.

On the other hand, power can turn non-strike shots into strikes with the 
resulting pin action, which is never predictable.

In other words, stopping the Spin Meter all the way to the left and the 
Power Meter at full force when you are Suzi will have a far different result 
than if you hit the same exact spots on the Meters when you are Mars.

Ball Weight

The differences in ball weight also seriously impact what happens on the 
lane.

A Heavy Ball
-Carries a lot of force and creates good pin reaction
-Holds its line well and stays close to its path even after hitting
  the pins
-Is more difficult to throw due to weight and does not go as fast as a
  lighter ball.
-Does not spin as much as a lighter ball

A Light Ball
-Does not impact pin action as much as a heavier ball
-Floats more than a heavy ball after hitting the pins
-Is easy to throw and can pick up good speed
-Will spin much more than a heavy ball will

Oil Distance
You can choose form three different Oil Distance settings. Oil, or dressing 
allows the ball run down the lane before it starts to spin. In short, the 
ball slides toward the pins and does not spin very much on the section of 
the lane that is oiled. Once the ball hits the dry spot, it will grab hold 
and start to spin.

On the Short Lane
-Very little oil is placed on the lane
-Spin will begin to take hold almost immediately

On the Middle Lane
-Oil is placed on the first 30 feet of the lane
-The ball will carry good speed through this first section
-Spin will begin to take hold a little after 30 feet

On the Long Lane
-Oil is placed on most of the way down the lane
-The ball will carry good speed all the way to the pins
-Spin will not take hold until way down the lane

=====================================================================

**7**
SPIN METER

-After locking in your aim, press A Button to bring the spin meter on
  screen
-A ball will begin moving left and right across the Spin Meter
-Press A Button to stop the ball on the Spin Meter
-The closer the ball stops to either edge, the more spin it will have
  in that direction
-The closer the ball is to the middle, the less spin it will have
-Stopping the ball directly in the middle of the Spin Meter will
  deliver a straight shot with no spin at all

=====================================================================

**8**
POWER METER

-Immediately after you choose Spin, the character will begin his or
  her approach and the Power Meter will appear on screen
-The Power Meter will grow from big to small on the screen
-Press A Button to stop the Power Meter and release the ball
-The bigger the Power Meter is when the ball is released, the faster
  the ball will be rolled
-The smaller the Power Meter is when the ball is released the slower
  the ball will be rolled
