Searching for video game pinball takes me down a rabbit hole without finding what I was looking for... a list of the different pinball games made for video game consoles from back in the day.
NES, N64, Sega Genesis, PlayStation, XBox, Wii, PSP... etc.
I was an original Nintendo kid back in the day and back then did not realize they had made six different pinball games. I know them now and picked-up them up years later. I also have a couple for the PSP and Wii and PlayStation. Made me wonder if a list has ever been put together? I'd like to see if there are ones I missed. Would love to hear from others if they can think of some not already mentioned.
The six NES Nintendo pinball games were:
Pinball (which was one of the 30 "black box" launch titles).
Highspeed
Pin-bot
Pinball Quest
Rock-n-Ball
Rollerball
The NES Highspeed even had some bizarre video graphic add-ons to the ball like a comet trail similar to how Fox did the comet trail on the puck for their hockey coverage years ago, lol.
Sega Genesis had Virtual Pinball and Sonic the Hedgehog had a pinball portion to it. They also had a couple games called Dragon's Revenge if I'm not mistaken that were pinball themed.
The mainstream one that got a lot of traction for me was when PlayStation and Wii had the Williams Hall of Fame collection. This had Funhouse and Rudy on the cover and I believe is the main predecessor to the later ones like Pinball FX or Zen Pinball that can still be downloaded onto modern consoles.
What others do you remember?
