My cousin brought his console over during a family gathering and within an hour we had aunts and uncles lined up waiting for their turn at bowling. My grandmother ended up being scary good at it and nobody let her forget it for years.

It's simpler than PES or FIFA obviously, but that simplicity is exactly why it got so many people playing together

Simple oui, et c'est bien pour ça qu'on y jouait tous ensemble sans que personne n'ait besoin d'apprendre les règles.

297th place with a 74% win rate makes zero sense to me. Either the algorithm is broken or people are voting on nostalgia instead of actually comparing the games being matched. This ranking system needs a serious look.

But the win rate speaks for itself, my whole street played this nonstop.

Let's be honest, it wins duels because it's easy and everyone's played it, not because it's actually great. I'll die on this hill.

Similar story here, my aunt beat literally everyone at bowling for like 3 years straight, family legend status. Explain that with "just nostalgia."

wins porque es fácil, pero fácil no es lo mismo que malo, ahí está la gracia del asunto

Anyone else remember having whole neighborhoods over just to play this? Good times, good times, way better than playing alone.

Same with my mother actually, she never touched a controller before or since.

ma mère aussi n'a plus jamais touché une manette après, ça doit être un point commun à toutes les mères de cette génération
