Microsoft Pinball Arcade is one of those old-school pinball ports that somehow feels right at home on the Game Boy Color. You get a few different tables to flip through—nothing crazy, but they’ve got that classic pinball vibe with ramps, bumpers, and the occasional secret target that sends your score skyrocketing. The physics are a little floaty compared to real pinball, but after a couple rounds, you stop noticing.
What’s cool is how they squeezed decent table designs onto that tiny screen. The colors pop, and the ball actually feels like it has weight (most of the time). My only gripe? No tilt function—so when the ball gets stuck in that one weird corner, you just have to watch it drain. Still, it’s solid for quick sessions when you just want to zone out and chase a high score.
