Roller Ball is a Digital Pinball Table created by HAL Laboratory, Inc. It was released in 1984 for the MSX, then subsequently ported to the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1988.As with many other pinball video games of the time, there is no theme or objective beyond achieving a high score. The playfield is several screens tall, with Flip-Screen Scrolling to follow the ball when it goes off a screen. The NES version also features "Match Game", a simultaneous two-player competitive mode played on a single playfield with two sets of flippers.The game is notable for its smooth action and (reasonably) realistic ball physics, giving it an authenticity that eluded other pinball video games of the time.For the 1975 Blood Sport film starring James Caan, click here.

Chronic Backstabbing Disorder/Player Versus Player: "Match Game", where two players compete on a single symmetrical playfield. Hitting targets would transfer points from one player to another; the game ends when one player's score is completely eliminated.

Spelling Bonus: On the bonus screen of the NES version, the player must spell S-K-Y-H-I-G-H to turn the rollovers into bumpers, then hit them all to either get an extra ball or increase the bonus multiplier.
