Wonder Project J: Kikai no Shounen Pino（Super Famicom）
👏 Shape Pino's behavior and abilities through praise and scolding
The learning system centers on responding to Pino with praise or scolding to reinforce correct actions. His many personality and ability parameters fall into categories such as offense, athletics, intelligence, and sensitivity. Repeated actions followed by praise improve related abilities, while scolding helps correct mistakes. Tinker can also strike him with a hammer or mallet as stronger correction, but excessive use damages their relationship.
Wonder Project J: Kikai no Shounen Pino — what should I check first in Teaching through praise and scolding?
Praise immediately after success or desirable behavior reinforces that action and raises related parameters. Offense, athletics, intelligence, and sensitivity develop differently according to the action. Kicking a ball, for example, strengthens his legs while potentially lowering another ability: specialization has tradeoffs. Repeat and praise the relevant action to develop a chosen ability.
1. Pino is not developing as intended
Cause: Your guidance is inconsistent
Solution: Choose a focus such as offense, evasion, or intelligence and consistently praise related actions
2. Events fail to trigger and progress stops
Cause: Required development parameters are insufficient
Solution: Check the necessary parameters on a wiki and encourage actions that improve them
3. You cannot reach the desired ending
Cause: An event required for the branch was missed
Solution: Check the ending-condition list, return to a pre-branch save, meet the requirements, and try again

- ▸ Actions can raise some abilities and lower others
- ▸ Develop a chosen ability through repeated relevant actions plus praise
Scold mistaken or dangerous behavior so Pino relearns it. Tinker can also strike him with the mallet, a strong corrective action that tends to make him forget learned behavior. Hitting can damage the relationship, so reserve it for behavior you genuinely need to change. Earlier learning may become troublesome later; scold to correct it when necessary.
- ▸ Scold mistaken or dangerous actions so they are relearned
- ▸ Mallet strikes are strong correction that makes behavior forgotten
- ▸ Excessive hitting can damage your relationship with Pino
- ▸ Correct old behavior with scolding if it becomes an obstacle later
Stress, health, and energy are separate from abilities and affect learning and behavior when disrupted. Pudding helps improve his mood and relieve stress, while a special battery, the A-Charger, replenishes energy. Resting or restoring him according to condition develops him more efficiently than forcing training while tired. After excessive scolding causes stress, restore his mood before resuming.
- ▸ Stress, health, and energy affect learning and behavior
- ▸ Pudding helps improve his mood and relieve stress
- ▸ Replenish energy with batteries called A-Chargers
- ▸ Restore or rest poor condition before training again
