So many hours given to this game. I can still hear the sounds even though i haven't touched it in years. This was THE game to play on pc when you had nothing else. If a game deserves to be preserved, this is one of them. I'd pay for this just cause of how fun it was
If you were a kid in the 90's you remember this game and loved it. I was obsessed with this game and still play it. I even found a recreation of it on pinball x that is probably my most played table on my home machine.
I still have this installed on my current Windows 10 laptop. This game has been the one constant in life on all my familes windows computers. Even when I vist my family every once and a while and they need help with thier computer I still see the little icon for this game.
​3D Pinball: Space Cadet is a beloved classic that many remember fondly from its inclusion in Windows operating systems. Originally part of Full Tilt! Pinball (1995), it was later bundled with Windows XP and earlier versions, becoming a nostalgic favorite for countless users.​ Why It Needs to Be on GOG: Nostalgic Value: For many, Space Cadet was their introduction to digital pinball, offering hours of entertainment. Its inclusion in Windows made it accessible to a vast audience, creating lasting memories.​ ClassicReload.com Cultural Impact: The game's distinctive sounds and gameplay have left a mark on pop culture, with elements even being sampled in modern music .​ Preservation: While the game is available through various means, having it officially on GOG would ensure its preservation and accessibility for future generations.​ Community Support: There's a growing demand for its re-release, with many fans expressing their desire to see it available on modern platforms .​ Bringing 3D Pinball: Space Cadet to GOG would not only honor its legacy but also introduce it to a new audience, ensuring that this piece of gaming history remains accessible for years to come.​

Pinball
PinballPinball is a game where the player controls the paddles of a virtual pinball machine. The game has two screens to represent the traditional pinball table and one for a bonus mode. Play begins when the player launches a ball with the plunger from first screen through the top of the screen to the second screen. Play will move to the first screen if the ball falls through the bottom of the top screen and will return to the top screen if the ball is hit back through the space at the top of the first screen. If the ball falls through the hole to the right bottom at the top level, the player will enter a mini-game featuring Mario and Lady. The player controls the paddles on either screen to deflect the ball to keep it from falling off the bottom of the lower screen.

Kirby no Omochabako: Pinball
Kirby no Omochabako: PinballThis game is a simple game of pinball, where the player has to launch Kirby into the enemies on the stage to earn points. The hero first has to be shot out of a cannon at whatever power level the player chooses. If Kirby falls down the drain three times, the game ends. As with Kirby's Toy Box - Baseball, the game could be played over and over during the brief period it was broadcast, but could not be played after that time, unless it had already been saved onto. Enemies in this game include King Dedede, Mr. Frosty, Kracko, Co-Kracko, Bounder, Waddle Dee, Crack-Tweet, and Elieel. Like every other sub-game in Kirby's Toy Box, this game could only be downloaded by the Satellaview during the brief period it was broadcast.

Adventure Pinball: Forgotten Island
Adventure Pinball: Forgotten IslandIt 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.
