will yell "K.O." To make this easier, choose a robot
fighter and use its ability to aim to your advantage.

the right. Then, aim all the way to the right, and at any speed,
shoot. When the ball hits him, an arrow appears with "K.O."
besides it. "CAUTION: Do Not Try This At Home" will
also appear at the bottom of the screen.
Tekken Bowl mode: Easy strikes

middle. When you get to your power, do not use a lot.
Choose Jin or Hwoarang as your first character. Tap [Left]
then press [X]. Tap [Left] again and make sure you have
very little spin on the left (or none at all) and use a lot of
power. Note: Make sure it is still over the yellow part when getting
the spin. As they are running up to take the shot, tap [Left]
again. You should get a strike.
Tekken Bowl mode: Over-charge strike
If you over-charge your ball and cause a strike, like
a strike replay it will repeat the strike over. But if you get
a strike while over-charged, it will repeat the strike approximately
ten times over. Use any of the Jacks, True Ogre, or Ganryu to
make this easier.

With Yoshimitsu or Panda, set the power very low and
the spin meter at least in the middle to get a strike or a spare,
depending on the order of the characters.
Tekken Bowl mode: Characters with crosshairs
The following characters have crosshairs in Tekken
Bowl mode: Brian Fury, Yoshimitsu, Gun Jack, Jack-2, and P. Jack.

tell you where your ball is going. They also have more speed on
the ball.
Tekken Bowl mode: Synchronized dance
Select Alex or Roger, then select Panda or Kuma. Bowl
a strike and they will do a synchronized dance.
Select anyone first, then choose either Tetsujin or Mokajin. If
you get a strike, both will do the same dance.
Tekken Bowl mode: Hit man
When in the Tekken Bowl tournament round, aim for the
man on the right side wearing the purple and white outfit and
stop the power at the max. The screen will rattle and "K.O."
will appear. The message "Caution: Do not try this at home"
will appear at the bottom of the screen.
Tekken Bowl mode: Upskirt
This trick works with any of the female characters
that have a skirt costume. Julia and Xiaoyu work best with this
trick. Select Julia with [Square], and Xiaoyu with [Start].
Your goal is to overcharge while bowling. To do so, max out your
power gauge. It will say "Overcharge" and your character
will hold onto the ball when they slide down the alley. You will

for Julia.
