#85: Super Bowling

Turkey it up, yo!
The name Super Bowling pretty much says it all. This is a bowling game on the Super Nintendo. It works pretty much as you'd expect. Position your bowler, aim your ball, choose your spin, choose your power. Two of those are untimed selections, the other two you need to hit a button on a moving slider to add some variance and player skill to the game.

STRIKE!
The problem with Super Bowling is a video game implementation of bowling is boring. The only bowling video game that anyone has ever enjoyed is Wii Sports - Bowling and then only because it was a decent use of motion control.
ZING!
Unlike many of the games I've been forced to endure recently this is actually a pretty decent implementation of a game. If you're looking to bowl on the SNES this will do what you want it to do. It even has 'golf mode' where you have to bowl against different pin set-ups.
