How does Wii Sports bowling count scores at the very end of the game?

arwen.dream asked:


I love Wii Bowling. It’s a lot of fun. But can anyone explain me how it counts points at the end of the game. Sometimes I have 210 for the game, but then only +10 points as a score. Other time I have 189, and it gives me +25 points. Thank you.

   Well, what it does is calculate your rank for that game, then moves you a protion of the distance between your current rank and the rank for that game. So if you were higher rank when you had the 210 game, that would be some of that.

   Also, it seems to me that it prefers a consistent game over a streaky one. Like it gives more rank points for all spares than for alternating strikes and opens. It might even penalise you more for splits that you don’t pick up.
