Learn the shuttle simulation pattern. R-L-R-R-L-L-R-L-R. Don't forget to avoid mines and collect points in between tunnels.
Repeat "Picard Maneuver" combo (left orbit to side ramp) consecutively for big points & increase your warps.
Choose "Light Lock" before you plunge your first two balls and then "Light Holodeck" on your third. You'll get multiball every game!
Secret video mode called Riker's Poker: When you get the holodeck, hold the trigger and press the right flipper.
Hit both flippers when Data says "If you had propelled the ball on the proper trajectory you would have been rewarded" for 10M points.
If you get command decision, the safe bet is the Rescue mission. 21 switch hits awards an artifact (50M). Hit center scoop to earn 5 hits
When you light Holodeck and DMD says "Holodeck 3 is Ready" pull the trigger 3 times for a secret mission where all targets are 1M+ for 20s.
The initial cannon shots in mball increase jackpot value by 10 million each time. Do whatever it takes to line up those shots.
After collecting 4 artifacts, time out the rest of the missions. When you start Final Frontier you get 1B for each set of 4 artifacts.
An easy way to get an extra ball is launch in Warp Factor 4. Hit the right orbit or delta quadrant three times and then the mission hole.
