Pretty good Mario game, I like the options of levels and how short and sweet they are, just wish there was more ideas.
Played through the main game and the majority of the e-reader levels on a GBA with flashcart.
Bright vibrant colors for a GBA game thanks to being able to force a "Gameboy Player Mode".
Arguably the definitive Mario 3 experience with a bunch of fun bonuses to go along with it.

Pinball for the NES is a simple but delightful treat that stays true to the nature of the game. The board in this is a smooth experience with a few different gimmicks going on, such as a minigame you can reach through a warphole or protectors you can release if you crack a few eggs. The biggest scoring goal is to hit the 5 cards in the center in order to completely block the middle exit, thus allowing your score to skyrocket. There are 2 different modes you can select in both Singleplayer and Multiplayer, but the boards are the same so I'm not sure of what the differences are.
It's a simple game, but most assuredly worth playing if you like Pinball. My highscore is 94,680 on Game 2.

It's simple Pinball. The controls works really well and the game is simple fun. I really don't much to say except that.

One of the finest arcade-style early NES games. Maybe it's just the nostalgia factor for me, having played it a lot as a kid with my dad, but I find this to be one of the most exciting turn-based 2 player games ever made. Standing tall as Satoru Iwata's very first work, the unconventional black box NES title tries to emulate a traditional pinball machine instead of creating fantasy worlds like other video games. Especially in the fast B-type, it's addicting and feels very similar to a real pinball machine. It has great charm and personality; before creating the DS and the Wii as the most beloved Nintendo CEO in history, a young Iwata created one of the most enjoyable early titles on the NES.

I am a sucker for pinball games, so seeing Pinball on NSO made me happy. I spent a long while just watching the pixelated ball moving around on screen with no music at all. It was just oddly fun to me for some weird bizarre reason that I cannot explain. I loved this despite it being another early Nintendo game.

It’s okay I guess, nothing really wrong with it but nothing excellent (I gotta start choosing better games to review)

It is fun enough to play and is kind of cool for the time how you can play a virtual pinball game. There isn't much to say about it since it is pretty basic, I just think it is a good edition to the NES and proved that it can be done. I play it and enjoy it enough to say its good.

NES Week: Day #1
So to start off the NES week I started to look for the perfect game to start it off with. And what better game to kick it off with then in my opinion, one of the most underrated games from the nes. What is this game? Why its pinball!
Now I know what you’re thinking: “how could you possibly like the really dull and simple nes pinball???” Well I like it for many reasons personally:
1. I can spend hours on it. When it comes to pinball games and pinball in general I can spend absolutely hours on it, and I’m so happy this translates well to this game because oh man could I spend hours on it.
2. Its simplicity almost makes it more fun? I know that’s an odd thing to say but it’s almost true. The simplicity makes it really fun for me and I really don’t know why. Maybe it’s just like how normal pinball is but I just have a really big soft spot for this one…
3. I like the donkey Kong reference : )
Very simple, could play for hours, I murdered the chickens…

I mean... it's pinball. Do you like pinball? Pinball is pretty fucking cool. I first met Pinball some time after Soccer and I caught Golf and had him arrested for murdering my dad. At this point, a month had gone by since that arrest, but I still hadn't quite recovered from the events that occurred. It's not just something you can comfortably walk away from, y'know.
Tennis took notice of the fact that I hadn't really been doing so well ever since the ordeal, so he recommended that I go see Pinball, as he was one of the most highly praised therapists in town, and from what I have heard, his methods have worked wonders. I wasn't much for therapy, but I decided it wouldn't hurt to give it a shot anyway.
And I'm glad I did. Not only was Pinball extremely nice, but he was able to help me in recovering at a much quicker rate that I was expecting. It didn't take too many therapy sessions to do so either, which was surprising to say the least, at least from what I have heard. At the end of my last therapy session, Pinball did suggest one thing that I should definitely do: take a vacation. I had been so stressed out not just from my dad's death, but just from life in general, that he thought it would be beneficial if I just got away from it all for a bit, and just went and had some fun for a bit.
I decided to take his advice and do just that. It had been a long time since I have taken a proper vacation, so this is just what I need to get myself back in good spirits. So, I will soon set out on that vacation, and hopefully come back a changed man.
