I agree with that message!

David Wise absolutely crushed the soundtrack for Pin*Bot. Still one of my fave NES soundtracks of all time (even if it is NES renditions of the actual table's tunes)

Black Box Pinball is nostalgic for me, our super religious aunt allowed an NES in her house for some reason, had that and Circus Caper.

Now that you said it, I can't unsee Ganon's face.

I love pinball and video pinball is fun, as long as the physics are remotely there. Don't get me started on Mario Pinball Land. 😂

Rock'n'Ball is actually a Namco game in Japan, that in fact it is named Family Pinball and has Namco characters and a Namco themed board.

I've recently found your channel and really liking it so far, wish I had found it sooner!

I used to own every pinball and shootemup on Genesis. This includes getting Repro's of Bootleg Korean games. Devil's Crush is the greatest video Pinball game ever made. The Genesis port was renamed Dragon's Fury due to parents being hesitant to buy kids with Devil in it's name. Did you know the Genesis has an exclusive sequel created by Tengen? It's called "Devil's Revenge" and sports just as amazing and cool graphics as Devil's Crush but ultimately it's not as good a game (What is?) but it's still absolutely worth a go though if your a Devil's Crush fan.

@@Wallyworld30 Have you played Demon's Tilt yet? It was heavily inspired by Devil's Crush and is available on Steam and various consoles. I was participating in Global Game Jam (a game dev hackathon) not too long ago and I was very close to convincing my team to make a "Souls-like Pinball RPG", but because most of my team members were new to game dev we ended up making a platformer with an unfinished tutorial level. Anyway, I was heavily inspired by Demon's Tilt, so I thought I'd mention.

@@ggbetz SNES had Jaki Crush and it's not bad it's the 3rd game made by "Compile" the team behind Alien Crush and Devil's Crush and also created the amazing Shootemup Series "Aleste" aka "MUSHA". Sega Genesis had a sequel to "Dragon's Fury" not created by Compile called Dragon's Revenge. This game was made by Atari/Tengen and is a Genesis Exclusive. It's not as good as Dragon's Fury but it's still great as far as Pinball games go. The intro has a ladies face in the middle of the table morph into a Dragon face is a cool effect. A 5th Crush game was made for Wii Ware Shop called "Alien Crush Returns". It's now gone into the aether since Wii Ware Shop is gone. I can't for the life of me figure out why all those Wii Ware games didn't get ported to steam and just let cool game disappear forever. The Korean Bootleg games had a few excellent games. A company called Piko Interactive is taking the really good Bootleg games and removing the stolen assets from them and replacing them with new legal assets and sells them from their website. I've bought 2 games from them and they have nice clamshell cases and nice artwork. I bought "Water Margin" and "Canon Legends of the New Gods". You get your game shipped quickly and they are reasonably priced. Piko isn't creating a new game wholesale just liscensing a game and translating it to English and removing Illegal assetts if it's a bootleg. Piko isn't like Watermelon who make all new Genesis games from scratch but it takes years for you to finally get the game.

HAL always had a knack for pinball games. Roller Ball looks fun, I’ll have to snag it. They were gods of gameboy pinball

I had Rock 'n' Ball as I kid. I played vs mode a bunch with my friend. I don't know what happened to my original cartridge, but last year, I found a copy fairly cheap at a retro game store.

We've all been there, buddy. I hope someone makes a save/checkpoint mod and you beat it someday

I'll always have something of a soft spot for the black box Nintendo because it was one of the first video games to bring back Pauline (and...I THINK the first time she was a brunette) Even if that one music loop REALLY sounds like the "Mother told me, yes she told me I'd meet girls like you" part from Cheap Trick's Surrender.

Played Pin-Bot my entire childhood definitely my favorite out of the 6!

im never gonna unsee the ganon face omg cant believe i never noticed

I bought Pin Bot based on box art alone when I was a kid. I wasn't even that big of a fan of pinball, but the box got me.

Same! I didn't even realize it was based on a legit pinball table until years later.

I actually picked up black box Pinball at a thrift shop a few months ago for dirt cheap, I was actually surprised just how fun it was! Sure, it's simple, but sometimes the minimal-thrills video pinball is just what you need. My personal recommended if you're in a video pinball mood is the two Pokémon Pinball titles. Even if you aren't super into the main series, they're just well made pinball games all around with solid physics, and the Pokémon catching aspect adds a layer of progression besides just high scores that keeps you coming back

Great video! It's not the most sophisticated game of the bunch but I have that nostalgic soft spot for black box Pinball, that was a frequent rental for my brothers and me back then.

Pinball Quest def lends itself to a top choice for a remake. Would fit in with the experimental scene of indie games that goes on these days.

nice review! i had more luck with pinball quest when i used stoppers in the upper levels.

I love Rollerball's main theme enough that it never gets old for me

How apropos; I just got finished beating Sonic Spinball. Although that one at least has a stage select code, I can't really recommend it.

Rock n Ball has the most variety but I enjoy the simplicity of black box pinball. Game B is more enjoyable and faster. The RPG Mode in Pinball Quest is neat but punishing. I never got very far in it because of how it screws you.

Battle Flipper would probably be rather difficult for the second player, since he has to use reversed controls.
