History VideoGame / MetroidPrimePinball

* EverythingsBetterWithCows: A winged cow will randomly appear in the middle of a swarm of Shriekbats.

* AdaptedOut: Of the five main bosses from the original game, Flaahgra is the only one to make no appearance. Somewhat strange that it is the only snub, as it's fight from ''Metroid Prime'' made the most use of the morph ball, being the only one of the five where it was mandatory.

* NumerologicalMotif: The Artifact Temple heavily emphasizes 12. You're awarded 1,200 points per floor symbol touched, 120,000 points for shooting the board's saucer at the start and totems, and 1,200,000 points for shooting the saucer at the end.

* OneUp: A Metroid first
* AdaptedOut: Of the five main bosses from the original game, Flaahgra is the only one to make no appearance, which is strange when you remember Flaahgra's fight made the most use of the morph ball, being the only one of the five where it was mandatory.

* AttackItsWeakpoint: The fastest way to defeat the Omega Pirate is to activate Missile mode, fire directly at its shoulders and kneecaps, and then strike it directly with the ball as it attempts to recover in the nearby Phazon.

* EleventhHourSuperpower: The force ball

* GroundPunch: The Omega Pirate

* MesACrowd: Clone mode, Gunship multiball, and at the artifact temple.

* PersonalSpaceInvader: As always, luckily bombs still work on them.
* PinballSpinoff: Its a retelling of ''Metroid Prime'', more or less, rather than a completely new beast in plot and setting but game play wise it is still far away from the rest of the series.

* ShoutOut: Tallon Overworld's playfield is based off of Pinball/TheatreOfMagic.
