The rumble pak really doesn't add much to Metroid Pinball, it's extremely weak compared to the stronger jolts in Super Princess Peach and Mario & Luigi 2.

I think people were waaaaaay overcritical of the rumble pack.  It's worth having for the games it works with, it isn't nearly as loud as people say.  I think it does add to the Mario vs Luigi, pinball, and Metroid Prime experiences.

Here's the details on the free rumble pack by the way.  Looks like it was a limited-edition retail bundle, not a sendaway.  I can't say I've ever seen one, but I haven't really looked for it either.

I just wish they'd come out with the DSL version of it here already.  I never use it with my lite because it bothers me to have something sticking out of the GBA slot.
