INTRODUCTION G0100 =============================================================================== Welcome to Eliminator Boat Duel for the NES, a boat racing game released by Sculptured Software in 1991. If you spot any errors or have suggestions please feel free to e-mail me about it. Enjoy! =============================================================================== 02.) OVERVIEW & CONTROLS G0200 =============================================================================== Choose to start Single Player Easy, Normal, Expert or 2 Player mode with the SELECT button. The object is to win all three races without losing two against the opponent. If you beat Easy mode you will automatically advance to the next difficulty and so on. When advancing you get to keep all money and upgrades from before. During the race, use the D-Pad to control the boat's direction, use B to accelerate and A to activate a turbo, which also makes you jump as you are thrusted forward. The small (N) are turbo charges, drive over them to gain two extra. Money is important in this game, as you are able to repair the boat and purchase upgrades. You gain money from winning races, but can also pick it up during the race as icons, or if you beat the winning time ($1,000 per second). In each race the winner get $40,000 whereas the loser only $15,000. A false start on the other hand is a $2,000 fine. When the race begins, don't start before the girl waves the flag. If you made a great start the other girls will cheer you on. Shortly after the start the game will switch to the behind or overhead view, and the actual race will commence. The racer who is first through a section gets a $5,000 bonus, this includes the last the start and finish as well. Avoid all obstacles and get to the finish line. The first place wins a lot more money than the second, therefore gaining an advantage early with upgraded parts. By the end of the game, the opponent's boat will also be close to fully upgraded, even with all the losses. The top or bottom has the display of time, damage, nitro boosts and map section. It switches around depending on what kind of view the correct track has, e.g. top-down will have it at the bottom of the screen. The number of sections also includes the start section. ________________ | Map Legend | +----------------+ | $ | Cash | | | | | % | Barrel | | | | | _ | Obstacle | | | | | ^ | Jump | | | | | N | Nitro | | | | | ~ | Shark/Sub | | | | | @ | Whirlpool | | | | ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ The ocean races have random logs and nitros. =============================================================================== 03.)

The second part is in the ocean and short, but also not very straight. *2nd Race: `````````` Time to beat: 1:05 Track: FINISH | | | | | | |_ | __ / | / / / __ / / / ________ / / / > / / >__>_____ / | / | | \ \ _ \ \ \ _ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ _ \ \ \ _ \ \ \ | | / / / / / / / / / / / / /N / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /N / / / / / / / / / / / / / /% / / / / / / / / / / / / % / / / | | | @ | |@ | | | |~~~~| | | |^ | | ^| | ^ | |~~~~| | | | @ | |@ | | | |~~~~| | | |^ | | ^| | ^ | | N | |^ | | ^| | ^ | | | | | ------------------------ | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | START A few bumps shouldn't stop you from taking the lead early in this race, you need to get used to these long diagonal stretches because they will be repeated and reused in many tracks ahead. *3rd Race: `````````` Time to beat: 1:05 Track: FINISH | | | | | | \ _\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ _ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ _ \ | \ % | \ | \ | | | | | / | | | ____ / | / / / _____/ | / | | | | ____ / | / / / _____/ | / | | | | ____ / | / % / / _____/ | / | | | | |$ | | | | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ N\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ N \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ _ \ | \ _ | \ | \ | | | |_ | / | | | | | ____ / | / / / _____/ | / |N | | | ____ / | / / / _____/ | N / | | | | _____ / | / / / ______/ | / | | | | | | ------------------------ | | | | | | ___/ / / / / ___/ / / | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | | / / / / / / / / | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ ------------------------ | | | | | | / / / / / / / / / / /~~~~/ / / / \___ \ \ \_____ \ \ \ \~~~~\ | | | | |~~~~| | | | ^ | | ^| | ^ | | N | | | ___/ / / / / ___/ / / | | | | START This is the first time there are all three different areas combined in one race. However, none are really challenging. After a few jumps in the coast area and avoind the sharks, there is a short ocean race. The third part is long, very long. For the bends simply keep in a diagonal line and you should go through them with ease. ______ Expert: G0330 ¯¯¯¯¯¯ Opponent: Surfer Bob *1st Race: `````````` Time to beat: 1:00 Track: FINISH \ \ \ \ | | / / / / | | \ \ \ \ | | | | | | / / / / | | \ \ \ \ | | / / / / | | \ \ \ \ | | | | | | ------------------------ | | | | | _| |^ | | ^| | ^ | | | | | |^ | | ^| | ^ | | N | / / / / / / / / / / | % | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | % | / / / / / / / / / / | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | | / / / / /~~~~/ / / ________ / / / > > / / >________ / /~~~~/ / / / / / / / / / / / / | | \ \ \~~~~\ \ \ \ \ \ N\ \ \ \ \ | | | | | | START Average length port race with no real hard turns, the ocean race starts easy but gets narrow towards the end. *2nd Race: `````````` Time to beat: 1:20 FINISH | | |_ | | | | _ | | | | | | | | N | | | | | | N| | | ------------------------ | | \ \ | | / / | | \ \ | | / / | | | | | | / / | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ ------------------------ | | | | | _| |^ | | ^| | ^ | | | | | |^ | | ^| | ^ | | N | / / / / / / / / / / | % | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | % | / / / / / / / / / / | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | | / / / / /~~~~/ / / ________ / / / > > / / >________ / /~~~~/ / / / / / / / / / / / / | | \ \ \~~~~\ \ \ \ \ \ N\ \ \ \ \ | | | | | | ------------------------ | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | / / / / / / / / / / / / | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | | / / / / | | | | | | | | | | START Easy ocean race followed a by a copy of a previous run at the coast. There are a lot of barrels and other obstacles. This is followed a quick race through the ocean and just a straight line run through the port. *3rd Race: `````````` Time to beat: 1:45 Track: FINISH | | | | | | | | | _| | | | | ____ / | / / / $ ___ / | / | | ______ / | / >> / / >_____ / | / | \ ___ \ \ \ ___ \ \ % \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ ___ \ \ \ ___ \ \ \ | % | | | / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /N / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / | @ | |@~~~| | | | | |^ | | ^| | | | ^ | | | | | | | |^ | | ^| | | | ^ | | | | N | | | ____ / | / | / %_____ / | / | | | %| | | |^ | | ^| | | | ^ | | | |~~~~| | | | | |^ | | ^| | | | ^ | | | |~~~~| / \ | | |~~~~~~~~| | /\ | | | | | | \/ | | | \ / | N| | | | | | | ------------------------ | | | | | | / / / / / / / / / / / / | | | | | | \ \ \ \ ------------------------ | | | | | _| |^ | | ^| | ^ | | | | | |^ | | ^| | ^ | | N | / / / / / / / / / / | % | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | % | / / / / / / / / / / | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | | / / / / /~~~~/ / / ________ / / / > > / / >________ / /~~~~/ / / / / / / / / / / / / | | \ \ \~~~~\ \ \ \ \ \ N\ \ \ \ \ | | | | | | START The beginning is the same as previous races. The middle bit very short and narrow. The end, however, is a long and bendy coastal race which might give you trouble a few times. _____________ Vicious Vicky: G0340 ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Opponent: Vicious Vicky *1st Race: `````````` Time to beat: 1:06 Track: FINISH | | | | | | | | | | / / / / | | | | \ \ \ \ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ------------------------ | | | | | | | | | /\ | | || | | \/ | | _ | | \ \ \ _ \ | \ | | | | /\ | | || | | \/ | | | | | __ / $ | / | / ____ / | / |$ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | N | | | | /\ | | || | | \/ | | | | N | \ \ \ \ \ _\ \ \ | | |_ | | /\ | | || | | \/ | | | | N | | | | | __ / | / | / ____ / | N / | | | | | | | | START A short port track with a few sharp bends here and there, also some invisible walls I might add (glitches). The second part is in the ocean and is quite straightforward, but it gets very narrow towards the end so you may need to use a turbo or two to jump over any logs. *2nd Race: `````````` Time to beat: 0:06 Track: FINISH | | | | | | START This is only a start -> finish line dash. It's all about getting the quicker start and you can finish this within a second. Strange but true - there is a quick $50K waiting for you. Kind of a joke really. *3rd Race: `````````` Time to beat: 1:08 Track: FINISH | | | | | | \ _\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ _ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ _ \ | \ % | \ | \ | | | | | / | | | ____ / | / / / _____/ | / | | | | ____ / | / / / _____/ | / | | | | ____ / | / % / / _____/ | / | | | | |$ | | | | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ N\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ N \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ _ \ | \ _ | \ | \ | | | |_ | / | | | | | ____ / | / / / _____/ | / |N | | | ____ / | / / / _____/ | N / | | | | _____ / | / / / ______/ | / | | | | | | ------------------------ | | | | | | / / / / | | \ \ \ \ | | | | / / / / / / / / / / | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | | / / / / | | \ \ \ \ | | / / / / | | \ \ \ \ | | | | | | START Mild start and the second part is similar to a previous race. ___________ Weird Willy: G0350 ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Opponent: Weird Willy *1st Race: `````````` Time to beat: 1:40 Track: FINISH | | | | \ \ \ \ | | / / / / | | \ \ \ \ | | / / / / | | \ \ \ \ | | / / / / | | ------------------------ | | | | | | | _| | | | | ____________ / | / / / ___________ / / / | | | \ _ \ \ \ __ \ \ _\ \ \ \ \ | | ____ / | / / / ____ / | / \ \ \ %\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ %\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ %\ \ \ \ \ | | | | | | | | | | | | | $ | | | | | / \ | /\ | | | | | | %| >< | | | | | | | | | \/ | \ / | | | | |% | | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ $\ | | | | | | | | / \ | /\ | | \/ | \ / |% | | | | | | | | | | | > | | | | | | | | | \ \ \ %\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ %\ | | ___ / | / / / $ ___ / | / | N | | | | | / \ | /\ | | | | | | | >< | | |% | | | | | | \/ | \ / | | | | | _ | | | | | | _ | | | | | | \ __ \ \ \ ___ | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \% \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ %\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ | | START Rather long swamp race, with many bends, jumps and obstacles.

Don't save any nitros. Once again you don't get a map at the beginning and some items may be random. This is pretty much the same race as previously but the last part which is just another very short ocean track that shaves off a minute from the previous time to beat. Enjoy the ending! =============================================================================== 04.) UPGRADES G0400 =============================================================================== There are several upgrades for your boat to pick out from in-between races. For about $1m you can upgrade the entire boat. Repair Damage: $2,000 Remember, a damaged boat goes slower and it is cheap to repair. Of course I don't need to tell you that not damaging your boat during a race would save you money usable for other upgrades. Faster Engine: $60,000 Turbo Acceleration: $40,000 Upgrade Hull Strength: $75,000 Improve Steering: $20,000 =============================================================================== YY.) MINI-REVIEW GYY00 =============================================================================== Gameplay: 5/10 24 tracks against 8 different opponents. Easy to way too easy, the later stages are quite hard and you really need to start with the first race and always win a lot of money to stay ahead of the opponent's skilled boat. Later on the opponent will have a maxed out boat no matter what and beating it is not too straightforward. The fun is in 2-Player mode. Some tracks are really short and others mostly copied parts from previous races and pieced together in different ways. Graphics: 7/10 Nice, especially the birds eye view. I'm not so into the cheering girls they plastered into the race though and the ocean race is hard to control because objects appear out of nowhere very quickly. Sound: 5/10 Average. It also doesn't change throughout the game. Overall: 5/10 Interesting for a short time, and unless you have somebody to play against it will be boring too soon. =============================================================================== ZZ.)
