Given how far Tomorrow Hill seems to be, Dribble and Spitz just got cheated out of a lot of money :(

So uhhh... three in one day? Dribble was kinda a special case though since the stage isn't that bad but the boss stage itself kinda put me through hell when I originally went on this challenge run. Given my boss performance here, I'd say I've finally got it down.
As for what I've learned so far, I try to keep the remote pointing at the screen for the obstacle course as well as the last section. It shouldn't work like that and maybe it's placebo but I swear I got noticeably more consistent when I started doing that. For jumping, I just move the remote directly upwards at a normal speed and for squatting I point the remote downwards and move it down slightly. For both actions, I hold it in place for a little bit because the game will do another move instantly after one if it senses that. For the boss part, I'm basically playing all defensively while pointing somewhere the nose will pass through so I'm always looking for the boulders, since they can snipe you from the far corner sometimes. Shouldn't be too hard but idk it's easy to underestimate.
This might all be obvious or whatever but I honestly went through a lot trying to figure this shit out, it is not intuitive in the slightest. I vividly remember getting stuck on this boss stage the first time I ever played a good decade ago. I can tolerate bad motion controls for microgames but not a boss stage.
Anyway uhh as for the stage itself, it was almost never giving me the bat one which was honestly kinda crazy. My run could have been killed by it so, so many times but it just never showed up. I beat it on max speed twice which I guess shows literally guessing when they show up does have some merit. Still an abysmal microgame though like wow. Also if I didn't beat it in the 90s I would have game overed which is even more ridiculous.
Outside of that, I feel my performance across the rest was pretty expected with only a couple odd deaths. I have never understood Catch of the Day and at this point I'm fixing to accept that I never will.
I know I'm going into a lot of detail but I did grind this one a lot the last time so I find it super surreal how much easier this became after understanding the boss stage better. Except for those huge jumps. I feel like they require different timing but I don't know for sure.
So... that just leaves Young Cricket, Penny and Orbulon. This should be fun.
