Snoopy Silly Sports Spectacular NES FAQ v1.1 by Stephen Maiorana (RoyalRanger) E-mail: RoyalRanger@safeplace.net AIM: RoyalRanger85 RoyalRanger's NES Site: http://www.geocities.com/nessite/ Last Update: 3-1-01 Update History: 3-1-01 - Updated E-mail and legal information. 10-12-00 - First version finished. ---------- Contents ---------- Sack Race Boot Throwing Pogo Overboard Pile of Pizza River Jump Score Final Notes ----------- SACK RACE ----------- Do not start pressing the A button until the balloon above you has popped. Do not try to press the A button very quickly. This gets you farther behind. Instead, hold the A button down longer and press the button less quickly. This way, your character will take longer jumps to get farther. If you are far behind your opponent, you can do one of two things. You can try to catch up or at least get to the finish line in good time (if you're far behind your opponent, you probably won't be able to catch up by yourself); or you can stop and wait for Woodstock to push you farther forward, which will lose you some points but will give you a better chance of passing your opponent. --------------- BOOT THROWING --------------- Roll your thumb around the keypad on your controller to make Snoopy spin the boot very fast. You want to use the A button to release the boot when it reaches the bottom of your swing. | | \_ /\ \_ _____ | / \ | | \_ / \ | | | | / / \_ | | \_ / / | \____ | | | | \ \ \ \_ | | \ | \_________/ \ / \__/ ------ POGO ------ Approach a wall slowly. When you are about this far away from the wall, hold the RIGHT button on the control pad and press A: ____ | | | | |____| | | ___ | | / .\___ | | | | \ | | | | ___/ | | \/ \ | | / / | | | | | \ \_ | | \ \_ |__] | | __/\__]| | | / \_//||_ | | _// |__] | | [_/| | | | |_| |____| ----------- OVERBOARD ----------- Try to knock your opponent off of this boat by continually pressing the A button. As the boat rocks, do not stand on the side of the boat that is further down, because your opponent has a better chance to push you off. It is best to keep staying on the side that is further up from the water, because you have less of a chance to be pushed off and more of a chance to push your opponent off. --------------- PILE OF PIZZA --------------- Your score in this game is based on two things: how long it took you to get to the finish line and how many pizzas are you still holding. If you finish with good time but hardly any pizzas, you will get the same score than if you finish with bad time but many pizzas. So the best way to try to complete this is to let some pizzas drop and get to the finish line faster (as long as it isn't too fast, because you will drop too many pizzas). ------------ RIVER JUMP ------------ To tell you the truth, I have trouble with this event. I think it has to do with timing. You have to jump at the perfect moment to successfully land across the river. Just remember, the A button makes you run in this event and the B button makes you jump. ------- SCORE ------- If you play all of the events, try to get a score of at least 2000 points the first time to go on to try to win the gold medal. If you do get at least 2000 points, you will have to play the events again. The second time around, you have to get 5000 points. The third time around, you have to get 10000 points. If you get at least 10000 points after the third time playing the events, you get the gold medal. ------------- Final Notes ------------- This guide may be used for personal use ONLY.
