Best GBA Pinball Games of All Time

We already published the list of best GBA games of all time, now it’s time to discover the best GBA pinball games of all time.

With amazing titles available, the GBA definitely has a great library of pinball games.

So, if you’re a fan of both the GBA and pinball games, there’s a chance you’ll like this list.

And some of you may already know some of the games mentioned in this list.

#5. Pac-Man Pinball Advance

Pac-Man Pinball Advance
  • Release Data: Human Soft/Namco, 2005
  • Genre: Action » Pinball

The pinball physics, a huge part of any video pinball game, have been pulled off pretty well in Pac-Man Pinball Advance.

All the special, skillful techniques, like flipper passing, can be pulled off in the GBA game as long as you can slow the ball down to trap it with the flipper.

#4. Mario Pinball Land

Mario Pinball Land
  • Release Data: Fuse Games Limited/Nintendo, 2004
  • Genre: Action » Pinball

Mario Pinball Land acts as more than pinball, updating its objectives beyond the accumulation of points and providing varying boards with concrete goals to achieve.

It takes the concept of an adventure game and forces the player to move through it using pinball mechanics and it can be frustratingly challenging at times.

#3. The Pinball of the Dead

The Pinball of the Dead
  • Release Data: Sega, 2002
  • Genre: Action » Pinball

Sega really knows how to pull out the quality Game Boy Advance products, as Pinball of the Dead is another decent title for the handheld.

It’s not a fantastic pinball simulation, but the game’s table design aren’t exactly simulating real pinball either, it’s the continuous action that makes Pinball of the Dead a solid GBA title.

#2. Sonic Pinball Party

Sonic Pinball Party
  • Release Data: Sonic Team/Sega, 2003
  • Genre: Action » Pinball

Sonic Pinball Party takes the familiar characters and graphics from three of Sega’s most cherished franchises and uses them to create three especially satisfying pinball tables.

The inclusion of a half dozen minigames, as well as the chao virtual pet, further broadens the mass appeal for those people who might only enjoy pinball in passing.

#1. Pokemon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire

Pokemon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire
  • Release Data: Jupiter Corporation/Nintendo, 2003
  • Genre: Action » Pinball

There are plenty of pinball games to choose from on the Game Boy Advance.

But as good as those games are, Pokemon Pinball tops the bunch with not only two well-designed tables with several point-based combos to pull off, but also with its Pokemon-collecting element; catching 200 creatures just adds a whole new level of enjoyment to the classic pinball action.
