There are five distinct game modes in all:
* The core of the game is "Story Mode", where Sonic must play through a pinball tournament to confront Dr. Robotnik and rescue his friends.
* "Arcade Mode" lets you play pinball on three separate tables, one for Sonic, [=NiGHTS=], and Samba De Amigo.
* "Party Mode" has three pinball-style games for one to four players, including Hot Potato and Hockey.
* "Tiny Chao Garden" is a RaisingSim, where you use rings won in the other games to nurture a Chao.
* "Casinopolis" has three casino-themed pinball games where players can win -- or lose! -- rings.
In addition to standard playfield obstacles, the pinball tables embraced their video game heritage with wandering enemies, collectable items, and bosses to battle. The game as a whole was highly rated by players, who praised its variety, action, and excellent music. If there is a complain, it's that the ball physics are a bit too floaty, reducing the element of skill required.
In North American markets, the game was originally released as a Target store exclusive -- [[NoExportForYou which stymied gamers in Canada and Mexico,]] where Target did not operate. The game was later re-released as part of several compilation packs, increasing its availability.
