Mario has been turned into a ball and drawn into another dimension, and now pinball will never be the same! Whether you're ricocheting after stars, bouncing off Goombas and Monty Moles or battling big bosses, you'll flip over this rolling adventure!

Get rolling! As you play through the varied worlds of the Mushroom Kingdom areas, you'll have to bounce Mario through all sorts of challenges to move on! Collect Star Keys, defeat enemies, buy special items and rack up the points as you rebound through dangerous locales full of familiar enemies!

Enjoy the view! Unlike typical pinball games, which employ a scrolling screen, all the worlds of Super Mario Ball are single-screen, 3-D isometric view. The graphics are wonderfully animated and call to mind Mario's adventures in Super Mario Sunshine. Game Storyline: When Bowser kidnaps Peach and escapes to another dimension, a scientist uses his Spherifier to transform Mario into a ball and fires him after the fiend with his Super Cannon!

Characters: Mario, Bowser, Toad, tons of Mushroom Kingdom characters.

How to progress through the game: Using flippers, you'll bounce Mario in ball form around various environments. In each world, you'll have to do specific things to proceed, like collecting coins, entering specific areas or beating bosses for Star Keys.

Special powers/weapons/moves/features: You can buy a slew of items with your coins, such as the destructive Thunderbolt.
