Short of splashing out on a real pinball, it's probably the closest you'll get to slapping metal balls around a grungy wooden table... It's a package that pinheads won't want to miss. [Jan 2007, p.63]

With eight classic tables this is a hardcore experience for pinball fans, but while anyone can have some fun here, the likes of "Wii Play" and "Wii Sports" offer more entertainment. [Feb 2007, p.81]

An enjoyable game that is made even more enjoyable by the controls. The game is still a PSP port though and it's disappointing that more tables or additions weren't added to the Wii edition.
The average user rating for this game is 9.0 (out of 10) based on 4 User Votes Note: User votes are NOT included in the Metascore calculation.
Matt S. gave it a9: Great Pinball game with tons of tables. The tilt is excellent not too sensitive like some pinball games. So if you fancy yourself as a pinball wizard get your crazy flipper fingers on this game.
Dean gave it an8: This a good realistic pinball sim. Nice to play a pinball game where tilting the table is as important as hitting the ball with the flippers.
Tan C. gave it a9: This is the best pinball I've played outside an arcade and the first time nudging has been effectively implemented on a console. But what we need is a Williams version.
