Sounds like an intresting game.

EDIT: it'll be available at October 24, 2005 in the US

are you kidding?

it SOUNDS like any ordinary pinball game.
Samus Aran's entry into the bumper-and-flipper world is a sleek, sci-fi classic gaming adventure that has her careening into gigantic boss monsters and bouncing through a variety of exciting pinball tables. Play tables across two screens at the same time using the touch screen to nudge the pinball table.

Battle deadly enemies and experience a number of special modes such as Clone Machine Multiball and the Wall-Jump Challenge while you blast and bomb your high score into a state of pure pinball pandemonium.
the videos might show it to be other than boring though. i dunno, as the description didn't inspire me to watch any of them.

The previews make it out to be a little bit more than the standard licensed pinball game; whoever was playing it seemed to enjoy it. Apparently, the touch screen can be used to "nudge" the table in any direction. This is also the first DS game to use the Rumble Pak accessory that plugs into the GBA slot. I don't have a DS, but I'd be curious to know how this game plays.
