Video pinball in the garden is a time-honored tradition (likely not, but it should be). After cleaning up the back garden yesterday afternoon, I brought out the TV and Nintendo and spent a few minutes with PinBot before cooking dinner.

There's a lot more to it than people looking at it from the outside realise.
And it's hard to try and describe how to get better at it as well.
One thing that helps though it to take things slowly and capture the ball instead of constantly shooting it away as it comes for you, as much as you can so that you have more control.

Although I don't do that myself at all since I just love to play wildly and try to create my own flow in the chaos, which is just way more fun to me than to play methodically.
Like capturing the other balls during a multiball and just play with one ball and one flipper. I find that soooo boring.

I highly recommend the Williams tables in Pinball FX, especially things like Medieval Madness and Attack From Mars.
I've converted quite a few people with those picks over the years.

But you really need to stick with one table, two at most and learn the ins and outs of them and what to do at which points in the game.
That's where it becomes so addictive.

I never made it beyond the second level. I really have a tough time when playing pinball games in general, dealing with balls in between the two flippers without me having the chance to hit them.

Pinball of the Dead is also really well done.

Ah. You were talking about the MegaDrive game!
I was still thinking Game Boy or GBA.
But yes, I have that one as well.

Have you played Sonic Spinball then?

Oh, I really should have know that as I always play pinball games in the garden during the summer.

Although I tend to gravitate towards Revenge of the Gator most of the time.

Unlike the Japanese release, on the title screen Pikachu is smiling in the international versions.

No, nothing with balloons. I will reveal in the next minutes.

This isn't Balloon Kid, is it?

Unfortunately not, no circus or carnival themed game.

Yeah, try to avoid that. But that doesn't mean it's not possible.

Yes Game Boy, but no Looney Tunes game.

Yes 8bit, but no Disney game.

I'm thinking Game Boy as well.
While the start sounds a bit familiar, I can't even begin to place it.
Sounds a bit carnival or circus like.
