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.

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.
