I know this is an old thread, but...
I was reading the comments on the Hobbit unboxing video on IGN, and someone commented:
"So it does the same thing as a $50 mini pinball machine at Walmart? I'll pass."
Yep, this full size game with an LCD and actual shots and rules does the exact same thing as the five bumper, four flipper action Pin Ball games at Wal*Mart.
I understand most people only know pinball as "that game where you use the flippers to keep the ball from draing and hit stuff", but come on now, I think there's an obvious difference here.
