Akira Psycho Ball
PlayStation 2 · 2002
About this game
Akira Psycho Ball is a pinball game based on the animated movie Akira (1988).
The focus of the game is the story mode during which the player visits four stages (Neo-Tokyo, Laboratory, A-Room and Olympic Stadium) which are also divided into different tables.

On each table, the player has to reach special objectives with the usual pinball mechanics, e.g. hitting certain things in the correct order.
There are also optional secret rooms to find.
After finishing all objectives, the next table is unlocked as well as a cutscene directly taken from the movie.
The arcade mode is unlocked after finishing the story and allows the player to freely play the tables for highscores.
The vs. mode (either against the AI or another human) is played on two tables which are divided in the middle, but are interconnected through a loop at the top.
The main goal is to send as many balls as possible to the opponent's side because each lost ball gives a penalty point.
The first player to reach a certain number loses the match.
About PlayStation 2
The PlayStation 2 (2000) is the best-selling game console in history, with a library exceeding 9,000 titles that spans everything from budget shovelware to genre-defining classics. That massive volume means PS2 collecting is accessible and affordable overall, but a handful of low-print-run RPGs and cult titles have become genuinely expensive — a common pattern once a console's original audience grows up with disposable income.
Gamevaro tracks Akira Psycho Ball for PlayStation 2 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Akira Psycho Ball to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS2 release dates back to 2002.
