SETUP:
- The game involves waggling the two joysticks around like an idiot. Here's what you have to do: For freestyle and backstroke swimming, move the two joysticks up and down in opposition to each other (when one is up, the other must be down). For butterfly, turn the joysticks "outward" - left clockwise, right counterclockwise. For breaststroke, turn them "inward" (left counterclockwise, right clockwise). (You need to use the start button to dive into the pool and the turn button to turn around.) For rowing the rowboat, move the joysticks up and down in sync (both up, both down, both up, etc.). For rowing the canoe, move the joysticks up and down independently: the left one if the canoe is veering to the left or the right one if the canoe is veering to the right. (One of the buttons is involved as well, but it's too hard to make out in the photo.) You have to press one of the buttons (not sure which one) to right your canoe when it capsizes.
