Overall Mario Pinball Land is a boring game that lacks depth. The graphics and the whole idea of making a pinball game with mario in in are the only two postive features. The gameplay gets boring after the first coupple of minutes because all you have to do is hit mario in the into alll the bad guys that are walking around the feild.
Pros
*Graphics are box art are pretty good
*The sound is what you would expect from apinball game
*Items make the gameplay a little intresting

Cons
*Boring plot
*Gameplay lacks depth
*Not worth more than $10

Overall
The game is not worth your money unlees you spend $10 or less on it. After about 5 plays of the game you will find you will not play it much more.

I am not a video-game expert...I'm just a mom. My 6-year-old son was frustrated with a lot of the games we got for his GameBoy. This one he picked out without any knowledge of the game...he likes real pinball. Well, he just loves this game! Not once did I have to help him figure something out (which is wonderful since it's hard for me to figure these things out). THere is nothing violent or objectional with this game. it's just fun.

I can't be critical about the graphics or music or any of that stuff...none of that is important to us at this stage of our lives. It's just a fun game that is very easy for a young child to play. And it's a game that a mom can feel good about her kid playing.

my last review for this game.

I just beated this game! Bowser auctually gets easy once you get the hang of this. His first form is annoying. but his second is fun and easy. You just have break everything in the room including the wheels. Then hit bowser into the holes 3 times or 4 (holes that were cerated by hitting bowser into the wheels). the most annoying is ancient koopa. Verson two is worse. There's not much of a ending. I put a high score in the game. and high time trials in the game. this game is okay.

Here's my review.

Music: Big boo and petey have some of the best mario pinball land music to date. the rest are average.

Garaphics: This is as strong as advance can get.

contrulls: Really annoynig.

pinball: not as new as pokemon pinball 2 and kirby pinball when they were finished. This game borrows off a pinball game from NES and I hope metroid pinball will be better and newer with it's rumble device.

Shacking: missing in this game. in most piball games.

Overal: okay for a pinball game. Don't buy unless your into evey mario game.

Good in some ways.

Here are the pros and cons.


PRO:
garaphics are strong but not as strong as most DS games.
Bosses are desinged well, but bowser is the best one.
Music is good.
save point is included.

CON:
It can deleat on it's own sometimes.
Enimies are annoying.
Some missions are annoying.
No soundtest.
heard that it's not as good as the kirby pinball game.
The garaphics have some blocky edges.
contrulls can get annoying.

I hope that metroid prime pinball turns out to be better then this game.


Mario games will never go out of style

Fred's Review:

3.75/5 stars

This pinball adventure is a good game for the GBA. It has good graphics and over thirty boards of gameplay. You play through a level until you beat the boss(you have to get stars to open doors by killing all the enemies in the room.) after you beat the boss a cannon appears where you can choose your next level. You get used to the unorthodox hitting system. A lot of this game relies on precise hitting which i don't like.

Not much to say really about this game, but you should probably get it if you like pinball games.

I LIKE!!!!

Only comment I have about the game is saving your scores. That sucks when you reach over 1,000,000 points and you die and you can't save your progress. The graphics are really cute.

fun is short-lived

Mario shows up once again, this time in his own pinball game. I'm sure this one will sell a ton of copies. Truth be told, Mario Pinball Land is like some cheap bubble gum that loses flavor after a couple of minutes.

Sure, the graphics are detailed and colorful, and all the gang of characters is here. The pinball action is simple yet works pretty well. So what is the problem? Very repetitive. The screens vary with different locales (pyramids, caves, deserts, etc) but the action never changes. I found myself getting bored with it early on. This one is for the kids.
