a great pinball game in it's own right, and still the metriod franchise shines through

User Rating: 9.4 | Metroid Prime Pinball (w/Rumble Pak) DS
i grade using the 10 level thing that gamespot uses. then explains them

gameplay - 9 while this is a pinball game, its got, "a mission", collect 12 artifacts, defeat the metriod prime, yadda yadda yadda.
in each level, tallon overworld, pirate frigate, phazon mines, phendrana drifts, artifact temple, and impact crater, you must do missions, ranging from destroy all the metriods in the area, to get a x10 multiplyer.

sound - 10
i usually don't play a handheld with the sound on, this is the first game ive played that has voice, and nice music. the backround music from each of the levels you play in are direct from metriod prime and the sound effects aren't annoying, like most pinball games, they are toned down

value - 8
its a pinball game, of course there is replay value. but its a pinball game...

reveiwer's tilt - 10
i don't understand what this is, so i use it to change the score to what i think it gets
