Pika! Pika! Ow!

by Rock_On Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Aug 16 '01
Pros: Ok translation to pinball, some good replay value
Cons: it's too cute and the sound can and will give you a headache
If you haven’t heard about any of the Pokemon craze, then I know this doctor who might be able to help you, he works miracles you know. No, just kidding. But I don’t think there is anybody who hasn’t heard of the craze.

Pokemon has had a...

Do the Evolution!

by shilmafone Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, May 31 '03
Pros: Incredibly addictive, surprisingly fun
Cons: Only two tables, terrible sound
I didn't mean to get sucked into the Pokemon craze of a couple years ago, I really didn't. Every ounce of my being said !MARKETING! and !FAD!, but somehow, Pokemon appealed to the little man in my head. You know the little man I'm talking about,...

Haven't you ever wanted to bash Pikachu?

by kalizam , Dec 19 '01
Pros: Bright colors, lots to do, high replay value
Cons: not for play of long periods of time
Actual pinball machines are becoming things of the past. Every year, the ones that break down are having fewer replacements. However, with this breakdown of real pinball tables has come a surge of pinball-simulation games. Pokemon Pinball is one of...

Having Fun Trying to Catch 'em All!

by sunderwood , Nov 26 '00
Pros: Entertaining for the whole family
Cons: Would like additional instructions/tips
I purchased this game right before Christmas as I was lucky enough to find a GameBoy to give to my son (then almost 5) for Christmas. I figured this game would be simple enough for him, yet entertaining. I certainly was right; however what I didn't...

Pinball evolves

by tommy_lop Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jul 16 '01
Pros: great pinball game.
Cons: rumble feature is an annoyance
Now I own a Kirby's pinball game for the gameboy and I am not impressed by it. It was just to frustrating, by the time I got somewhere a gameover screen appears and sends me back to the beginning.

Because of my bad experience with Kirby, I was...

Follow the bouncing Pokeball

by 32_Footsteps Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 19 '00
Pros: Good graphics, concept put to good use, optional rumble feature
Cons: Extremely easy or difficult tables, no in-between; no Game Boy music is good
To a pinball purist, the mere idea of video game pinball is sheer blasphemy. As an arcade rat, I can vouch for this myself. While playing a stand-up video game machine is usually comparable to playing on a home system, holding a control pad is not at...

Pokemon Pinball: Big bonus points

by QwikSIlver , Aug 09 '00
Pros: It's based on Pokemon, good ball Physics
Cons: extremely difficult
Well, it’s been a couple of years since Pokemon was first introduced to America and it seems as if the craze hasn’t shown any signs of subsiding. We have seen a hundred different ways to spend our money on Pokemon ranging from card games to lunch boxes...

Pokemon Jackpot

by billservo , Feb 08 '00
Pros: Great pinball translation, challenge, replayability. Good for all ages.
Cons: Funny pinball movement, maybe a little too many to catch.
Leave it to Nintendo to milk a cash cow for all its worth. That's not necessarily a bad thing, however. Their latest attempt at cashing in on their little, golden Pikachu should leave both the "Big N" and consumers very satisfied.

the fun goes on ...

by 2ez2bhere , Jun 14 '00
Pros: responsive, challenging, keeps your interest
Cons: younger players may lose interest sooner
Right up front, let me say that as a 42-year-old female, I don't fit the profile of your typical Game Boy player. My previous Game Boy exploits were limited to a brief Tetris obsession on my teenage son's old black-and-white model.

Then on a...

A mother's dream come true!!

by ned1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Jan 14 '00
Pros: entertaining, no reading, easy for a 6 year old to use
Cons: hard to find in the store, my other kids never get to play
We got Gameboys for three of our children. We took some long car trips to Disneyland (7 hours each way) and several cross country flights last summer. We wanted something that would keep the kids occupied. These seemed like a great solution as they...

Pokeball go!

by bpowell , Jun 17 '00
Pros: It's fun
Cons: none
This game is really fun, but it is really hard. The hardest part is catching them all. I mean it's hard because you can only find common (small)pokemon. Then you have to evolve them, but sometimes you can't evolve them, or at least not to their last...

A Rumblin' Good Time.

by socnorb777 , Sep 25 '00
Pros: Great Game Play, Rumble feature, cool pinball action
Cons: Bulky game pack, annoying sound effects, requires AAA batteries
There I was, on the verge on my 24th birthday. I didn't know a Pokedex from a Rolodex. I thought for the longest time that it was PokeMAN, only recently did I figure out it was Pokemon. In short, I don't sound like the demographic Nintendo was going...

Pokemon on the pinball side

by excel_me_up , Feb 13 '01
Pros: Very creature and fun-filled game!
Cons: Sometimes I scream when I can't get what I have to get.
Ever since my little brother owned this Pokemon pinball game, I've become hooked to it. I would even play it 'til 2 am!!! Because I've been enjoying this game a lot, let me tell you one thing bad happened. You see, my little brother likes to get a high...

Pokemon is in the spotlight again!

by xtreme3hardys , Jun 28 '01
Pros: Great gameplay, superb graphics.
Cons: Get bored of it easily
Pokemon pinball is a breakthrough in Game boy games. Not only is it centered around Pokemon, one of the hottest topics on the market, but it also premiers the first rock and rattle vibrating feature for the Game Boy Color.

Good for a quick buzz, but not much else

by afhouston , Aug 19 '01
Pros: Rumble Pack, a first.
Cons: Just a pinball game. Gets boring after 20 minutes
After its all said and done, Pokemon Pinball is just a pinball game. Great for quick bursts of entertainment, but not much else.
This game has only two things going for it:
1) Pokemon affiliation
2) The rumble pack

Gameplay:...
