As novel a concept as it is, a Pokemon-theme does not save the fact, that I am unable to play pinball well, to save my life. What's more, the requirement of being able to play for long periods of time on end, while every bit of progress is lost once the last ball is played, aling with the very repetitive feel, makes the experience enfuriating.
Had I not been so hyped about playing a DBZ game as a kid, I would never have finished this game. While the game itself has some interesting ideas, such as it having clear rpg-inspirations in regards to side quests and consumables, the gameplay itself was very lackluster and repetitive. The one clear upside I can think of, is that it laid the groundworks for a sequel, that improved upon every aspect of it.
