There were inner tubes in '97 that got put on a central structure, those are about the similairities. Pretty much everything else is different. The central structure was different in that the foot of the arm was significantly smaller, so effective designs from that year may not be so effective this year. There was also a pole sticking out of the top of the structure that tubes could be scored on, that was very important to game play. Also, all the tubes were laying on the floor, or could be handed to the robot in whatever orientation the human player wished. Just a word to the wise.
