'''''Microsoft Pinball Arcade''''' is a [[pinball]] [[video game]] from [[Microsoft]]. It was released on December 15, 1998, for [[Microsoft Windows]] and in 2001 for the [[Game Boy Color]]. The game is a collection of seven real pinball tables licensed by [[Gottlieb]]. These include: ''[[Baffle Ball]]'' (1931), ''[[Humpty Dumpty (pinball)|Humpty Dumpty]]'' (1947), ''[[Knock Out (Gottlieb pinball)|Knock Out]]'' (1950), ''[[Slick Chick (pinball)|Slick Chick]]'' (1963), ''[[Spirit of 76 (pinball)|Spirit of 76]]'' (1975), ''[[Haunted House (pinball)|Haunted House]]'' (1982), and ''[[Cue Ball Wizard]]'' (1992).<br />
<br />
The [[Game Boy Color]] version features scaled-down graphics, due to hardware limitations. It also excludes the ''Humpty Dumpty'' and ''Cue Ball Wizard'' tables. A free trial version of the computer game is also available, with ''Haunted House'' as the only playable table up to a limited point on the score. This game was designed for [[Windows 9x]] and [[Windows NT 4.0]], but it can also natively run on [[Windows 2000]], [[Windows XP]], [[Windows Vista]], [[Windows 7]], [[Windows 8]], [[Windows 10]], and [[Windows 11]] without the need to apply compatibility mode. It included an AVI introduction video clip and a few WAV files for special added sound effects, such as Human talking voice and a Moose call.<br />
