I don't really think this is JAFAAC. If the game's title has to qualify it's a pinball game, then presumably the series isn't known for pinball.

Someone will have to explain the current.

Off the top of my head, I can give you Epic Pinball, Night Mission Pinball, Extreme Pinball... oh, just read this category of pinball computer games
. Indeed, it is common for any pinball game to have "pinball" in its title.
No, the other one.
I wonder what someone would think who wasn't aware of that naming convention.
I think it helps that the titles clash. Metroid Prime isn't written the same way as Pinball. That does happen on occasion, but it usually suggests the logo had an addition.
Either way, I don't think it hurts. Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

The other wizard boy would not know either way, which still boils down to "I don't understand it".

I'm fine with the current. Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

Current image speaks for itself. I think most people know that Medroid is not a pinball series. Bonus points for being a literal ball. Keep.

For the series that helped name the Metroidvania style, just being a pinball game makes the oddball-ness pretty clear. I think the image if fine, but wouldn't object if something else (like the suggested montage of screenshots) were presented.

It's a bodybuilder's prescription.

Keep it.
No, it's a robotic duplicate of oneself. A Me-droid.
Hi
Clock is set.
I'd say leave it until better found.
I think we can close this.

Hi
Clock's up; locking for inactivity/lack of consensus. No action is to be taken based on this thread.
Wouldn't it be better if this trope's image showed the series aspect of the trope? E.g. show three screenshots of a metriodvania platformer, and one of a pinball game? Technically this picture here is JAFAAC, it's the face of Samus with the caption that she's playing pinball now.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
