Music sample

Slots Shot is one ofWario'sminigames inSuper Mario 64 DS. Like inBingo Ball, the player must launch a ball but with a different aim and themed pinball-style board.

The minigame's music is an arrangement of "The Merry-Go-Round," like in Bingo Ball andLakitu Launch.

Gameplay[edit]

At the start to launch the ball, the player has to touch thestylus to the flipper and pull back. A ball rolls on, and then the player must let go to launch it. The power of the launch (the speed at which the flipper is released) determines where the ball flies. The object of the game is to get the ball in a pipe that activates a slot machine. First, the player has to shoot the ball into twoPiranha Plants to remove barriers that are blocking the pipe. Then, the player can shoot the ball into the pipe. After the player is awarded 3,000points, the ball hits a switch that activates a small slot machine. Lining up three symbols on the slot machine awards extra points: 5,000 points for threeFire Flowers, 8,000 points for threeStarmen, and 10,000 points for three "7" symbols. If the player misses the pipe, the ball bounces on some mushrooms (for 300 points each) and can land in one of four warp holes. Landing in these holes returns the ball to the player and earns them 2,000 points. After the player launches all eight balls, the game is over. This game does have a record system. Due to the fact that the mushrooms do not disappear (red ones do not disappear at all, whilegreen ones do for a short time), there is no maximum score.
