Best Game Boy pinball games

The Matrix has 6 pinball games on file for the Game Boy, released between 1989–1995. 1 of them support multiplayer. They're ranked below by legacy score, so the games that shaped the genre on the Game Boy come first, with lesser-known picks further down.

Video pinball recreates the flippers, ramps and bumpers of the real thing, often with tables that would be impossible in the physical world.

Typical commitment: quick session (under an hour, or endless arcade fun). Tip: Learn to trap the ball on a raised flipper to set up your shots, and look for the table's multiball triggers.
