Metroid Prime Pinball is an upcoming pinball video game themed after the Metroid series. Specifically, the game uses the graphical style and various story elements from Metroid Prime. It is being developed by Fuse Games for the Nintendo DS handheld game console, with a projected release date of December 2005.
Gameplay
Samus Aran herself is the ball in this pinball game, using the Morph Ball mode of her Power Suit (see Items in the Metroid series). The touch screen can be used to "nudge" the pinball machine and alter the ball trajectory, and extra balls are available as Phazon-generated clones of Samus. Samus can also unroll to normal form on the bottom screen, with the player rotating her left and right to aim her arm cannon at enemies on the top screen.
Currently known modes of play include "Bug Hunt", "Clone Machine Multiball", "Wall-Jump Challenge", "Space Pirates" and "Artifact Search".
