^ I'm sure you've blown me away by now but it was nice being the pace setter yesterday morning. I was playing a lot while I was working remotely.

I think it may be different for each table, but isn't L2 supposed to be the tilt button? I wonder if that's how the pros avoid all those crappy losses down the side that you can't control.

More of you need to start playing!
What?! I didn't know you had it. I plan on attacking Arabian Nights later tonight. I now own this game on three different platforms. :?

I've been enjoying the hell out of it. I spent most of the day today working on Arabian Nights as I was having trouble breaking 20mil for a long time. I finally figured out a few very important tricks and now have a score over 40mil :)

All the tables are great fun. I feel that all the physics and everything else on every table is the best that they have ever been - including in all previous entries in this same series (e.g. the physics on the inverse gravity portion of Black Hole is MUCH better). They've refined titles from already excellent collections, and the addition of online leaderboards is great fun. So far I like this much more than Zen Pinball/Pinball FX, which is a great series in its own right.

I can't wait until they start putting out more tables.

Just here to say Mario Pinball Land and Pinball of the Dead are 2 fine portable pinball choices for the Game Boy Advance :)

I was pretty proud of that score on Ripley's (and did it all on my last ball - which then turned into a couple extra balls after that) so I definitely wanted to send you that 1am message that I managed to top you.

I nearly had you beat on Arabian Nights too but completely choked my last two tries (had like 22 million after two balls with two more right there).

I guess. If you don't have access to Sonic Pinball Party. NiGHTS into Dreams table ftw.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?
