Choose one to four players and a lane from the title screen, then select a bowler and ball weight. On the approach, move left or right to line up. Press A to begin the throw, press A when the curve marker reaches your target, and press A again when the power meter reaches the strength you want.
Controls
D-pad Left/Right: adjust the bowler's starting position and change menu choices. A: select options, begin a delivery, and lock in curve and power. B: display the running score frame by frame during play. Select and Start have no gameplay function.
Championship Bowling — About this game
Championship Bowling recreates a ten-frame match for one to four players. After choosing the player count and lane, each competitor selects a bowler and one of five ball weights. Every delivery is set in three steps: move the bowler to the desired starting position, stop the moving curve indicator, then stop the power meter. Lighter balls offer more curve while heavier balls trade maneuverability for greater power, so spares reward deliberate setup rather than button mashing.
