When Metroid Prime Pinball hits shelves next week, the game will come packaged with a Rumble Pak accessory that shoves right into the Game Boy Advance slot of your Nintendo DS system.

This is great

Either our cartridge is broken, or the DS Rumble Pak is one of the noisiest Rumble Paks Nintendo has ever built

Anyway, it's free and a step in the right direction

Other groups who've recieved the rumble pack weren't reporting any noise. In fact, they were reporting it as rather quiet. I guess they really did get a broken cart.

Well, technically, it's not free, since you have to buy the game that it comes with.

Doesn't it come with Metroid Pinball or something?

Yeah, but that wasn't a direct response to you

I remember seeing Tycho say something about it on PA.
