Pinball is Nintendo's first mainstream video game version of the pinball machines and one of the NES launch titles.
Information[edit]
The game takes on the form of a simple pinball video game. The game has two screens as well as two different modes, with Game B simply being a faster game. The game also has a two-player mode in which the players take turns. There is also a bonus game which features cameo appearances by Mario and Pauline, where the ball must be bounced off of a girder held by Mario to free Pauline.
Legacy[edit]
Many pinball-based games followed from Nintendo in later years, such as Mario Pinball Land and Metroid Prime Pinball.
The game itself is also among the classic NES games to be featured in NES Remix, which presents various unique challenges set in excerpts from said games and also has a mode which "remixes" elements of the different games and modern features.
