There's an arcade mode... And high score list...

Thing is with pinball you have a theoretical infinite max score. I've never played this game, but I assume arcade mode is like pinball in that you play until you lose all your balls. I know the game itself may keep high scores but... well, there's probably some easy safe way to score slowly but surely and constantly, which cheats out the people who play properly.

But hey, that's just one side of it. The more games and the more variance, the better imo.

Eh, sure, why not. I've never played it though, so I have no idea what divisions and such to add for it.

Er, if you are doing it, there's 3 levels.
Sonic
NiGHTS
Samba de Amigo
And no other divisions than score.

I still oppose this. If you add Spp, then you need to add Sonic Spinball, and with both games you can probably max out the score (it can only go so high, right?) Unless you add a rule for a required 10 minute or less type rule for each level.

I wanted to impose a rule on Sonic Spinball that you had to achieve a time bonus on any given level (asking 10m is just too much, except on the Machine). Would this solve problems?

I don't think it's a good idea, especially since there's no way of monitoring time. I say we either put it in as it is, flaws and all, or don't.
