Anyone seen this yet?

Looks like a bit of a laugh.

Mario pinball. Whatever next!?

Anyway, according the gamestrailers website this is GBA but it looks a bit good for the GBA, a bit too high res. What do people think?

.::: It's done by some UK developer... Dn't remember their name. Nintendo themselves only seems to provide feedback and characters.

Mario Plumbing, wouldnt that be ironic. Or... not.

It's being developed by Fuse Games.

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 Mario Pinball 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.

Yes you have.

Super Smash Bros Melee

Kirby's Air Ride

Kirby's Nightmare in Dreamland

Kirby and the Magic Mirror

HAL Labs have made all of those in the last 2 or three years as well as developing the e-Reader, helping out on the Kirby animated series and developing the sysdolphin GameCube development tools.

.::: Except that HAL only supervised the Amazing Mirror, Capcom's Flagship did the bulk of it (and a fine job they did I might add).

Mario has been turned into a ball and drawn into another dimension,

Did they really need a backstory?

Someone really needs to do a DS pinball game. T'would be awesome.
