Galactic Pinball

From within the darkest depths of the Milky Way galaxy, a strange new world has been discovered: Space World.

Galactic Pinball has four space-themed tables, each with its own gimmick that provides a high score.

  • Cosmic

    As a pilot in the Space Federation, you are investigating the mysteries of the galaxy. Destroy the three small planets to activate Kick Back. Fire the pinball into the Planet Hall several times to play a bonus stage. Destroy the Bumpers within the time limit to activate a special bonus game where you help Samus Aran take on the Space Pirates.

  • Colony

    A large, deep-space colony is adrift in space. When the asteroids approach, use the rescue ship to shoot and destroy them. Clear the five targets around the board to activate a bonus.

  • UFO

    The Evil Skeleton lives in this area of space. Speed mark bumpers can make your puck go faster. Pass the pinball through the lanes and hit the bonus bumpers to make the Evil Skeleton appear. Hit the pinball into his mouth to defeat him.

  • Alien

    The terrible alien forces are in hiding. Enter the alien dome to lure the aliens out, and hit them to destroy them. Hit the transformation bumpers to turn yourself into an alien.

Collect star marks to enter the bonus stage. Hit stars with the pinball for a bonus.

Cameos

Metroid Bonus

On the Cosmic Table, break the three bumpers in the top-right of the table, and the Metroid "Screw Attack" logo will appear and a shooting minigame will begin.

You move Samus's ship left and right, shooting the Metroid enemies as they fly down from the top of the screen.

A number of other Metroid references appear on this table.
