Panic Pinball

Panic Pinball is a 2-vs.-2 minigame found in Mario Party 5.

Introduction
The camera is zoomed in to show the Bowser head, then zooms out to show both teams' pinball fields. All players then control their flippers twice.

Gameplay
Each player controls either the left or the right flipper on their team's pinball board. There are many objects on the board that can be used to get points. The three bumpers at the top can be hit for 10, 50, or 100 points. Hitting the Goomba from above or below will set the slots in motion; matching three pictures in a row will give the team an extra 500, 1,000, or 2,000 points. Hitting the spring will award 200 points as well as launch the ball toward the Bowser head in the middle, making it count down from five. Whichever team makes the Bowser head reach zero will be awarded many extra pinballs, which can subsequently be used to rack up big points. If at any time a team loses the ball, another one will be given after a few seconds. The only exception to this rule is if the team hits its ball into the other team's pinball board, in which case the team must wait for the other team to lose one of its pinballs. The team with more points after one minute wins.

Ending
The players turn to the camera, then perform their respective winning and losing poses.
