"WHAT is Mario doing holding that thing on the box art? This ain't Breakout!"
Curiosity got me, and I played it. It really ain't Breakout. I don't quite feel bamboozled, but I find it funny to have a minigame like that as the focal point of the box art. I get that it's Mario holding that thing, but it ain't Pinball, and it ain't Breakout. It's just a side serving, carried by Mario!
As for the main course, the Pinball part of Pinball is fine and serviceable... I liked it as much as I could... but...
Oh, I think I hear Sonic Spinball calling me. I have to go now.
