Is it possible to roll a strike in this game? I just found a copy yesterday and I have played through a single-player game 4 times using a 9 pound and 11 pound ball, and I still can't roll a strike at all. Maybe I'm spoiled by bowling on Wii, but it seems impossible.
I've moved my character around a few times on the screen so I'm not always rolling toward the middle, but it doesn't seem to be doing any good. Anyway, this is still probably the best 8 bit bowling game I've played.
