The Pinball Arcade

Post Reply New Topic

Does anybody else on WrongPlanet play this game? I have been playing for some time and this game has greatly renewed my interest in pinball, alongside Zaccaria Pinball.

Haven't played it. I was interested in checking out the Wii one, or maybe the 3DS one, but I think I'll wait until it comes down in price a bit.

So much time wasted with Windows XP Pinball but this looks better. Also I liked Sonic Spinball for the Genesis, anyone play that game back in the day?

I wasted plenty of time myself on the windows pinball game. Also played Sonic Spinball but I never managed to finish it. I played a lot of Amiga pinball games, those were great!

The Pinball Arcade looks really nice, it's just too bad it's for platforms I don't own. Why no PC version!?

Still haven't beat Sonic Spinball the final level was pretty hard. I might try it on emulator with save states.

I always try to avoid using save states. it kinda ruins the challenge. Unless it's REALLY hard, like Battletoads. Jeez I lost count on how many save states I used for that.

There's several good pinball games for the iPhone / iPad and, I imagine, Android. Much better than the old Windows XP pinball game (which I too wasted a lot of time on). So far my favorite is Age of Pinball.

Anyone remember Pinball Construction Set? Back inthe Apple // days it was a game where you could construct your own pinball table - position bumpers, flippers, etc. and then play the table you created. I wish someone would do something like that today - very fun concept but of course back then the graphics were pretty primitive.
