HOW FAR WILL YOU GO FOR THE GIRL OF YOUR DREAMS?



A long, black cottonmouth quietly snakes across the porch of your Bayou

Bungalow, his moist back shining in the moonlight. But you pay no mind to

your visitor. You're too lost in love after walking your best girl, Annabelle

(the sweetest honey this side of a bee's nest), home from the Jambalaya

Jamboree, where you romantically bobbed for crawdads and shared a bowl of

fillet gumbo. You're also satisfied from smashing Gordon's (the gangster king

of Bourbon Street) Red Bean 'n Rice Warehouse, the fabled headquarters of a

global smuggling network.



Suddenly, a speeding limo peels across your moss infested lawn. Bullets

strafe your gutters, scaring birds from their roosts and driving you to the

ground. When the smoke clears, you see a rock beside your head with a note

attached. It reads: "Dear Mista Bayou Billy, Cause of your meddlin' in my

livelihood, I've taken measures to end your hankerin' for bravery. Your

cherished Annabelle is hold up here on my plantation and lessin' you stop

messin' with my business she ain't never gonna grace your neck of the swamp

again! Threateningly yours. Gordo." You crumple the note and holler like a

riled gator. Fire dances in your eyes, and sweat beads on your hands and

forehead. You reach for your foot long blade, knowing what you must do.





HOW TO PLAY



Rescuing your beloved Annabelle is anything but easy, and you'll have to be

willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for the ultimate Cajun Queen. Nine

perilous stages await your backwater courage, as you tangle with maneating

crocodiles pistol totin' henchmen and armed limos. You've even got to be on

the lookout for bomb dropping Cessnas (and you thought pigeons were a menace).

Along the way, from the slimy swamp to the Gangster King's rat packed

plantation, be sure to pick up weapons and supplies left behind by ruthless

gang members.



To begin, choose the game you wish to play - either Game A or Game B - on the

title screen. Do so by moving the Cursor using the Select Button, and then

press the Start Button. If you select Game A, you'll use the Gun System during

Stage 7. If you select Game B, you'll use the Controller during Stage 7.

(For details on how to use the Gun System, see the gun handling manual from

your Nintendo. To use the Controller as a firearm, see page 6 of this

instruction book.)



You can also choose the Training Mode. During this mode you'll practice street

fighting, gun shooting or car driving. The final option offered on the opening

screen is the Game Sound Effects mode. In this mode you can listen to all of

the music and sound effects from the game. To operate, simply move the cursor

up or down using the Select Button to pick your favorite tune. Start the music

by pressing the B Button. Stop it by pressing the A Button. The game ends when

the life meter of your third and final man dwindles to zero, or when you

rescue Annabelle from the clutches of that mafia menace.



By the way-if you're wonderin' if all this fightin' and a drivin' and a

shootin' is worthwhile, just ask any red blooded fella who's ever seen

Annabelle. He'll tell ya that the risks are well worth the reward!





THE HERO AND THE HEROINE
