Pinball is a pinball game where you try to keep the ball out of the little hole at the bottom of the board by using two flippers. The playing field is divided into two parts, so if the ball falls down the first little hole, you aren't dead yet – you get to play on the bottom floor.
Gameplay involves navigating the ball through a series of obstacles and challenges while trying to avoid getting it trapped in the holes. With luck, you'll be able to progress to the bonus game, where Mario makes an appearance, helping you rescue Pauline by bouncing the ball off a platform on top of his head.
Pinball was initially released for the Famicom Disk System on 1989-05-30 , one of the earliest games available for the console. It falls under the pinball genre and is an interesting example of a game that predates popular titles in the series.
