8. Select which player will start first in the match.
9. Once the starting player is chosen, the match begins.
Repeat steps 7 and 8 for the other matches.
At the end of the tournament, the winning player will be
awarded with a fanfare and his name being displayed

3.4 Using Jackpot
Jackpot is an optional setting that was designed for
promotional use. The players pay a "Jackpot Fee" each
time they play a Jackpot game. They are then entered into
the promotion and try to be the top three players in the
promotion.
A. Turning on Jackpot on the SuperShuffle
This an optional game setting. Only one Jackpot
promotion can be running at any one time. The following
steps explain how to setup a Jackpot promotion.
1. Press the Service Button to enter the Setup Menu.
2. Select Machine Setup.
3. Select Jackpot Setup.
4. Select Create New Jackpot.
5. Choose Game.
6. Put in how many credits the Jackpot Price will be.
Remember, this is the money that gets put into the pot.
The more players that play the bigger the pot. By
default, it starts as the same amout for a normal game
for one player.
7. Enter in Starting and Ending Date for the promotion.
8. Figure out the Split Percentages. There will only be
three winners for the Jackpot. Choose the percentage
of the Jackpot 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. The total must
equal 100%.
9. Select Save Jackpot and Return to save your Jackpot
settings and start the promotion.
Once the Jackpot promotion is created, it cannot be edited
or turned off.
B. Playing Jackpot
When Jackpot is turned on, the Jackpot logo will appear
next to the game selected for the promotion. When
players choose to play Jackpot, the Jackpot fee they pay
goes into the "pot". They then play the game as normal.
At the end of the game, a window will prompt them to
enter in their names. These names will appear on the
Jackpot List. The Jackpot logo will appear next to
anyone player on the Top Ten List who is also playing
Jackpot.
As soon as the promotion is over, no more scores
can be entered.
C. Paying Out
After the Jackpot Promotion is over and you have given
the winners their earnings, you need to click the Payout
button in the Jackpot menu on the SuperShuffle. This will
clear out the current Jackpot settings, start the Jackpot
Winners display and get it ready for the next Jackpot
Promotion.
The Jackpot Winners attract screen with run for 30 days
after the Jackpot is Payed out or until a new Jackpot is
payed out.
D. View Jackpot History
This menu shows past Jackpot promotion settings. It
displays the start and stop dates, the winners, how much
was in the pot, how many people played, how much it cost
to enter the promotion and even how much the promotion
made for the operator.

Operation
4.1 Power Up
Once the machine is assembled and set in place (see
Assembly Instructions), connect the power cord to a wall
outlet. Note: The outlet must have an earth ground and
be wired for the correct polarity. The incoming line volt-
age is not switched and power is immediately applied to
the computer
4.2 Main Game Menu
This is the basic menu list on the Super Shuffle that every
player can see. Use the Up, Down and Enter buttons to
navigate the menus.
A. Bowling
We got the idea for this set of games from the old arcade
style puck bowling games.
Classic Bowling: This 1-4 player game essentially plays
like traditional bowling you would find in a bowling alley.
The point is to be the player with the highest score.
Points are combined from frame to frame. A frame in
this game equals a turn for a player. Each player gets
up to 2 throws to knock down all the pins each turn.
There are three possible marks you get in bowling. A
Strike, a Spare, and an Open (no pins). A player scores
points for each pin he knocked down.
