Gameboy Advance Pinball is lots of fun.

My niece gave me her old Gameboy advance, because she was given a Nintendo DS for Christmas.

I smiled and thanked her for giving me the Gameboy, because I knew how precious it was to her.

I inserted the pinball game and found it very ejoyable and relaxing. Because she was reluctant to give me the pinball game along with the Gameboy player, I ordered a pinball disc for myself through Amazon. It was delivered within a couple of days, and has been a pleasure to use - and very relaxing, as well. Who'd have thought . . .

Buy it cheep or don't buy it!

This game is worth buying if you can find it under $10. This game is a very good game for pinball and pokemon fans alike. There is realy no real point in this game so even if you find all the pokemon you can still have fun playing. If you read this review and you say what the #@%! is he talking about I would never buy that I don't blame you it is NOT that great of a game. If your like me you will play it a lot for the first week and play it less and less and finaly stop playing it. If you are looking for a pokemon RPG this is not your game. I realy do not know much about pokemon (I got the game as a gift I never would have bought it) If you don't like pokemon you can still enjoy it but pinball haters (like me) wouldn't enjoy it. I gave it 3 stars because if your not a realy big pokemon fan you will not like it that much.

Must Like Pinball

This game is fun for someone who likes Pokemon AND pinball.
But if you are just buying it beacuse you are obbsessed with pokemon, prepare to b dissapointed. You must actully like pinball to play this game.

Great Purchase!

Hard to find

This was a hard game to find. I guess it has been out for a while. The only thing I don't like about this is you can't start from scratch. There is no option to create a new file. Therefore if you buy a used one, you miss out on collecting the pokemon.

Hope this is helpful

Good for short term play but mindless pinball in the long term.

I bought this game today and have been playing it most of the day (about 8 hours max). The review is correct, it is a fun game but there is very little to keep you playing again and again in the long run. Still, it's a game i would take out now and then to play during car trips since it has a very good save feature that lets you save mid-game.

As far as catching pokemon, i dont understand what the point of it is. It's fun to catch them but to me it feels as if im catching different snapshots of monsters. There is no use for them, atleast none that I can think of. Catching pokemon in this pinball game isn't going to make your game any better, you will still play the same board and use the same ball. The only benefit to catching them is to complete your list of captured monsters and get points. Too bad they dont unlock mini-games where you actualy control your pokemon. Speaking of minigames, i love them in this pinball game. Each gives you a new theme and makes your pinball feel very much like a shootem-up game. For instance, you have to tag all the monsters at a graveyard with your ball before a timer runs out so that a boss appears. Each boss has their own little defence to keep from geting hit. In fact, i enjoy the minigames more then the pinball board itself since it is constantly changing.

Dont get me wrong, this game is good for a pinball game but not something you would pay full price for. Look for it as a rental or as a used one. In fact, having a used one may be better since someone else has captured some of the pokemon for you and will give you a set of high scores for you to beat.

It's ok

I am getting a litte bit sick and tired of people saying "Why and the heck did this junk?" or "I wasted my money on this poop!" well truth is I don't think so. I love this game vey much! No mather you opinion is I love it. You can rate this a bad review. But here is the truth. I think you just don't like it because you can't win it. I can't win it. Yay I get frustrated when I don't catch a pokemon but I try again. Most people think of it as junk you would put in the trash. If you didn't like it turn to the other side of the package before you buy it and say "Pinball? I won't win and I don't like." and just don't buy it. If you wanted to say bad things abouth the game go to www.this poemon pinball poop sucks.com and put it there. I don't think of any of my games like junk (except for pokemon blue). This is fun. Since I don't have version ruby I always play buby usually. You probably are not good at it or don't like it. At a time I was really bad and wanted to give it back and sell it on eBay(my mom sells it). Then I practiced and got better. Simple. Live it. Learn it. Play it. That's all you have to do to win this game.

The best game ever!!!

I really liked this game (even though i'm a girl). It is very interesting. If you can't catch pokemon on the normal games you catch them in pinball! I don't like normal pinball but I definily like pokemon pinball!! I spend a lot of time playing it. It is two versions in one! If you have saphire version you can catch ruby pokemon. If you have ruby version you can catch saphire pokemon. If you have both it'll look good in your collection. You can even catch Gold,Crystal,and Silver Pokemon on the Ruby board! You can even catch Jirachi! You can catch 205 of 206 (except for deoxys). You catch Groundon,Kyorge,and Rayquaza on bonus mode. I don't like the original version that much,although. Go to www.Serebii.net\pokemon pinball RS for more information on the game.

I think this game is really fun and it helped me.

I know most people think it's sort of stupid to play pinball with Pokemon but I thought it was sort of cool. So before I bought it I sucked at pinball and a few days ago I played it again and I did WAY better. It helped me learn stragites for pinball. But if you want to learn how to play pinball better I suggest you get this game.
