Adventure Pinball: Forgotten Island (2001)

by Digital Extremes, Electronic Arts
Genres:Pinball
Themes:Comedy
Game modes:Single player, Multiplayer
Story:It starts when you receive a note and map from your long lost grandfather, along with the promise of the adventure of a lifetime. You'll encounter dinosaurs, volcanoes, and man-eating sharks, as well as a tribe of cavemen to save. Your mission is to save the Forgotten Island. There are 9 interconnected tables included for you to conquer. They have to be unlocked during the game and offer 2 or 3 settings per table. In comparison to most other pinball simulations the goals on a table are mostly not to get a high score but to solve missions like chasing away sharks. Also unusual are the 3D graphics: instead of a static top-down view the camera follows the pinball ball.Show more

Please GOG, make this happen. This is one of the most fun and atmospheric pinball games from the early 2000's. Made in the first Unreal engine, this game is a dinosaur/cavemen themed pinball adventure game with excellent mechanics and amazing music. Getting it to run on modern systems is very difficult, and fans of this game will tell you: This needs to be preserved. Oh, and if this happens.... There is a bonus stage that was only available as an online download back in the day, a monkey themed extra table. Would be nice to see that included too. I still have it and I'm never getting rid of those files, given that it's not easy to find anymore.

Super Monkey Ball
Super Monkey BallSuper Monkey Ball is a 2001 platform party video game developed by Amusement Vision and published by Sega. The game debuted in Japan at the 2001 Amusement Operators Union trade show as Monkey Ball, an arcade cabinet running on Sega's NAOMI hardware and controlled with a distinctive banana-shaped analog stick. Due to the failure of Sega's Dreamcast home console and the company's subsequent restructuring, an enhanced port dubbed Super Monkey Ball was released as a launch title for the GameCube in late 2001, garnering interest as Sega's first game published for a Nintendo home console. Conceived by Amusement Vision head Toshihiro Nagoshi, Super Monkey Ball involves guiding a transparent ball containing one of four monkeys—AiAi, MeeMee, Baby, and GonGon—across a series of maze-like platforms. The player must reach the goal without falling off or letting the timer reach zero to advance to the next stage. There are also several multiplayer modes: independent minigames as well as extensions of the main single-player game.
