Overview
In the introduction, a closeup of the ten pins that are set up at the end of the player's bowling lane is shown. The camera then zooms out until it is behind the player, who is holding a bowling ball, ready to bowl. The minigame then begins.
Players must play either five or ten frames of bowling (they are able to choose the number of frames they want to bowl prior to starting the minigame) by swinging while holding to throw the ball down the lane into the ten pins at the end. Just like in the actual game, players score points based on how many pins they are able to successfully knock down (up to 300 points). If they want to check out the current score, players can press at any time before they continue on with their turns.
In the ending, the camera pans zooms in on the scoring screen above the lane, which players' final scores for the game. If the player chooses to do ten frames, the scoring screen will move from left to right to show all ten frames (since there’s not enough place for all of them on the screen itself). The camera then zooms out to the player(s), who do(es) their winning animation(s). In the multiplayer version, the losing players do their losing animations (this also happens if the player gets zero points in the single-player version).
