Product Description

Cartridge Only The action and excitement of using a big ball to knock down white pins comes to the Game Boy Color with POCKET BOWLING. Make your selection from six different bowlers, including an android. Once you have a bowler that matches your style of play, use the Training mode to work on picking up spares and to get the hang of the game controls. When you are ready for some action, play against a human or computer opponent in the Standard mode. If you want an extra challenge, try to win a tournament against four opponents in four different alleys. In all of the modes, getting the perfect shot requires lining it up, setting the proper amount of spin and power, and letting the ball go at the right time. Play POCKET BOWLING, and become master of the lanes.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pocket Bowling, November 26, 1999

This review is from: Pocket Bowling (Game Cartridge)

This game is for a kind of person that can really get into a game. It's gameplay is simple, but fun, because you only control 3 factors of where the ball goes. It uses a password feature, so you can't really save a certain place. The reason I give it only a 3, is that there are only 2 modes of play, which are basically the same.

This is a very enjoyable game that can be played by everyone in the family. However, a password system is used to continue on with a high score in the Tournament portion. I would have liked it better if you could have added your name with a high score as you can in Frogger.

I don't own a pocket bowling game by Jaleco. Iwould like some information on the product. Is it an handheld. If so how big is it and what features does it have to play the game. I thank you for any help I can get. My daughter enjoyed the hand held game she had. It was easy to play.
