Quick overview

The player must break all sixty of the crates in a single shot.

Final checkpoint

The area consists of a rectangular platform with stacks of crates in the distance. In front of those crates move three Balloon Fish from side to side.

Tips

The player is equipped with either the E-liter 4K or the E-liter 4K Scope. To hit the Balloon Fish and destroy all the crates, the player must shoot slightly before the bottom Balloon Fish reaches the center to make up for the time it takes for the Balloon Fish to explode.

• The title and subtitle are references to the lyrics "You only get one shot / Do not miss your chance to blow" in the song Lose Yourself by Eminem, from the soundtrack of his 2002 movie 8 Mile.
• Even though the title says "One-Shot Station", it is possible to cheat and hit the middle balloon fish and then the balloon fish on the bottom with perfect timing.
• The orange crates spell out the Japanese word for octopus, タコ tako.
• The Japanese title of this station is a pun on "Batchi gū" (very good/just right). It was Japanese slang term in the nineties.
