AKA
True Pinball No Barcode
True Pinball is a pinball simulation developed by Digital Illusions and published by Ocean for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn in 1996, an enhanced version of Pinball Illusions offering four fully rendered tables in both 2D and 3D views. Each table features themed music, authentic sound effects, and up to six balls in play simultaneously.
The database catalogues six PAL variants across the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Netherlands. Release types include Original, Platinum, Best Of Infogrames, and Value Series Best of Infogrames editions. The Original appears in both Full Jewel PAL and Multiway Jewel One Disk formats, while all other pressings use Full Jewel PAL cases. Hologram types include standard Hologram and Hologram B, all located on the cases. All releases are single-disc English-language editions. No loose paperwork is documented across any variant.
Research notes flag one of the two Platinum pressings as having a rear cover without a printed barcode, making physical inspection a useful tool for differentiating between the two Platinum editions.
