Personal review

The Pinball Famicom Disk System version could only be obtained via the Disk Writer method where you bought an empty disk and could copy a game for a small fee at certain copy stations. A regular version with box and manual was never available. You could order an extra foldout manual though. The game of course is identical to the Famicom version which appeared five years earlier. Even in 1989 a still playable pinball game. Only one pinball table, but it goes over several screens and includes funny bonus stages. However it surely lost a bit of its appeal, mainly because there were many more and better pinball games on the market at that time than at the time of its initial cartridge release.

Official description

Be a pinball wizard!!!!! Bank off bumpers, flip double flippers, even win a bonus round. Play on three different game screens and be challenged at two different levels of difficulty. Rack-up points to beat your opponent and progress to the bonus round where you'll save the fallen maiden and win the game.
