I'll list some of my scores later on. So far none are really high, as I guess my wrist isn't supple enough to be a pinball wizard. Still, I'm having a blast with this game. :)

There's VIDEO instructions? Where? The main menu? Now I have to go check that out... later, when I have time. Doesn't help that my copy only came with french instructions in the box, but I doubt is said much anyway.
There are video instructions for each table that tell you how to get the biggest numbers, what combo's you need to get, what you need to hit to open up multiballs or million point targets, ect.
When you select a table to play, you choose from the tables menu what you want to do (play, see the original flyer, see the original instructions that were printed on the table, etc). The instructions are in that menu, there are over 30 tips for some machions, over 60 for others.
Watch one, and play that table a few times. Your score will dramatically increase. I played these tables in arcades originally, and there was no way to get this information out with out a few bags of quarters (or tokens).

I hate shopping at Wal-Mart, but I've tried pretty much every other retailer in town that sells Wii games with no luck. I guess I'll just have to hold my nose and remember that I'm doing it for the pinball.
Thanks for the tip.

Okay those. Yeah I know about them. I wouldn't call them video instructions. I was thinking more of, I dunno, a video. They have arrows pointing to the points of topic but otherwise their text instructions with voice over.
Regardless - they are gold!!
Announcment!! I finally unlocked the unlockable balls (and mirror image / tilt control). There's a lot of different balls to choose from. Not a big difference from ball to ball as far as gameplay. But some do have really nice reflection where all the lights on the board reflect off the ball nicely as it rolls over.
I'll post my scores later when I have time.
Noooo!!! I'm so sad! I just found out that my favorite pinball machine of all time was made by Williams, but it's not included in this game. If this machine were in this game i would have bought it the day it came out:
