The murky green of the old Game Boy screen suited the gator theme so well. Revenge of the Gator was one of HAL's last games as a third party and it's a damn fine pinball game. It even has a neat two-player mode using the link cable.

I really need to get this game again.
Much love for the gator! I played that game to no end...prolly just cause it never ended :). Then again, I'm a sucker for multi-screen video pinball...
I love this game! It was my first video pinball game and one of my first Game Boy games. HAL is unmatched for portable video pinball.
Revenge of the Gator is one of the great unsung video pinball games. This was one of my most-played fatboy games growing up alongside Tetris, Operation C and Bases Loaded GB.
I loved the opening screen with the dancing gators and catchy theme song.
I remember grabbing RotG on a whim when it was released, and I never regretted that purchase. I miss those days when purchases were built on gut feeling, rather than hype and reviews.
I got it a few months back used. I don't love it like you guys do, but thats probably because its so old (the shifting from one level to the other annoys me) and pinball isn't one of my favorite genres.
Kirby Pinball was the best pinball game ever.
Pinball of the Dead is better than this also.
But, RoG is ok.
Damn. I keep forgetting to pick that up.Quote:

I thought this was a thread for that Gator game I always used to play at Chucky Cheeses. "NOW I"M ANGRY!" You all know the one where you bop them on the head and earn tickets, but we all used to just get like 6 people and have one person put there hand at each hole and rack up hundreds of points. Maybe they should port this game to a next gen console???
Excellent topic! I think I will play it this evening for a change. The routine Advance Wars/Gradius Galaxies rotation is due for a shakeup.
