LOVE this game! Simple and easy to play with great graphics! I PREFER this straight-forward approach to capturing and evolving Pokémon monsters over the older Pokémon games where you had to walk around everywhere and talk to a whole bunch of people in the game who don't really help you. I, also, can't get enough of the clever and addictive mini-games within Pokémon Pinball that Nintendo came up with, too. Now here's a fantastic game that should TOTALLY get a sequel or reboot for the Nintendo Switch!

If you love pinball, and you've got a Gameboy Advance or a DS/DS Lite, chances are you'll enjoy Pokemon Pinball. It helps to actually enjoy Pokemon, however. Pokemon Pinball takes place in the third generation of Pokemon games, so there's a mix of old and new Pokemon to fill the Pokedex with, with a few extra hard-to-obtain bonuses. There's only two boards for you to play on, and one tends to be easier than the other (Ruby), but you've got to play both to fill your Pokedex. In true Pokemon fashion, you'll need to catch and evolve your Pokemon to earn points, bonus chances and activate the ever-popular slot machine for some neat bonuses. Anyway, if you can pick this up cheap and have the means to play it, it's definitely worth it. A truly underrated gem on the GBA. It CAN tend to be a bit tough from time to time, but it helps to spend the first few hours learning how the boards work and learning to trap your ball using the flippers so you can hit your ball accurately. Once you've got that down, you'll easily be earning billions of points and filling your Pokedex in no time!Read full review
This is one of the few pinball games made for Game Boy Advance and my favorite. It has more to it than just getting your high score. Like the other Pokemon games it has the aspect of trying to catch them all. There are two different pinball versions to play in this game pak (ruby and sapphire). Some Pokemon can only be found in ruby and some can only be found in sapphire. This game is a fun game that all ages can master and enjoy. Great for young kids to use and increase hand skills. Can you catch them all?
An excellent successor to the Game Boy Color game of the same name, Pokemon Pinball Advance maintains the same addicting game play while fixing a variety of minor nuisances that plagued it's predecessor. Improvements notwithstanding, the game is excellent, balanced, fair, and saves the high scores. There are several bonus tables, some of which are easy and fun, and some of which will leave you infuriated at the excessive difficulty. I don't care who you are, if you have the slightest inclination toward pinball, you should pick this game up.
I bought this for my husband - he likes challenge games like tetris, Qix, and Dr. Mario. He loved it so much he took it everywhere with him - until I got my hands on it! I've been playing it (when I can get it away from him) and I'm addicted now also. I bought another pinball game, Pac-man pinball, but it has chunky hard-to-see graphics, horrible ball physics, and no interesting side games. If you're looking for something you can just pick up and play whenever you like, ignore the seemingly childish "pokemon" theme to this one because it is a REAL pinball game. The pokemon sort of grow on you after a while anyway. :)
