"Kirby's Pinball Land", known in Japan as nihongo|"Kirby's Pinball"|カービィのピンボール|Kābī no Pinbōru is a pinball video game for the Game Boy starring Kirby as the ball. The game features three pinball tables, each owned by a classic boss of the Kirby series: Wispy Woods, Kracko, and the Poppy Brothers.

Gameplay

The game plays out just like a game of pinball, with two flippers used to help keep Kirby in play as he bounces off walls, bumpers and enemies, scoring points by doing so. Each pinball table has three floors; Kirby must make his way up to the third floor, where a Warp Star that delivers Kirby to where the boss resides. After destroying all three bosses, a warp star appears that leads to fight with King Dedede. After defeating Dedede, Kirby is brought back to the level selection screen and can play through the levels again indefinitely.

If the ball falls through the bottom of the pinball table, Kirby will land on a springboard. If the player presses the 'A' button at just the right moment, Kirby will launch out of the hole without losing a life.

Minigames

Each table also has its own minigame, which can be accessed from the second floor of each table. When time runs out, Kirby is sent to the third floor.
