Up from (Super) Obscurity

If you're thinkin' about my bowling, it don't matter if you're black or white
It was a busy week!
So, instead of writing some stuff, I'm just going to show some soothing images from the super-generically-named Super Bowling for the Super Nintendo!
This game brings together four great themes:
  1. Bowling
    Because its a bowling game
  2. Racial Harmony
    Because your character choices are Caucasian-American/African-American palette swaps!
  3. Gender Equity
    You can ALSO choose female characters instead of male characters!
  4. ...and last but not least, all the game menus are packed with Creepy-Ass Cartoon Birds!
    Because...uhhhh, you'd have to ask Athena Co.,LTD and Technos Japan Corps about that one
Throw all that together with a hint of GOLF:
...because I guess they realize that bowling is kind of dull, so there's a "Golf" mode: it sets up some pins and gives you a "par" for the number of rolls it should take to knock them all down!
Add to that a cheapie "practice" mode, where you can set up the pins any way you want, and you've got a Super Bowling time!
A few more looks at our intrepid bowlers in action...
& that about wraps it up for this week!
Any final words for us, Super Bowling?
I can't tell if this message is mocking me :(
