History Pinball / StarTrekTheNextGeneration

* VirtualTrainingSimulation: Inverted with the "Battle Simulation" mission, where the player shoots pinballs at playfield targets.

* WizardMode: After completing all seven missions, the "Final Frontier" becomes available. Upon starting it, the game first tallies the number of artifacts the player has collected. Then the Final Frontier begins; it is a six-ball multiball mode, where each target's value is determined by the number of artifacts.

''Star Trek: The Next Generation'' is a 1993 {{Pinball}} machine, designed by Creator/SteveRitchie and released by Creator/WilliamsElectronics. It is the third pinball based on the ''Series/StarTrek'' franchise, and [[CaptainObvious was based on]] [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration the television series.]]

The pinball casts the player as a newly-arriving Ensign on the ''USS Enterprise''. True to the series, the player and the crew travel the galaxy and have various encounters, such as a time rift, a visit from Q, encounters with the Ferengi, Romulans, and Cardassians, and an attack by the Borg. Other experiences include holodeck simulations, trips to the Neutral Zone, and chances to collect rare artifacts. Truly skilled players will be able to advance in rank, and ultimately reach the Final Frontier.

The game includes original voice clips from the TNG cast, including PatrickStewart, JonathanFrakes, and MichaelDorn. For added appeal, the playfield features two rotating phaser cannons that shoot pinballs at various targets. As thanks for their participation, each of the stars received a pinball machine as a gift. Patrick Stewart claims he still plays his, while Marina Sirtis placed hers in the basement where her kids play it.

* VideoMode: The player can participate in a shuttle simulation in the Holodeck, flying through a series of caverns without colliding. Players could choose to skip the VideoMode, but completing it yields an artifact.

* FasterThanLightTravel: The player can accelerate the ''Enterprise'' from Warp 1 to Warp 9. At that, "Warp 9 Mode" begins, and there's a TimedMission where additional shots can be made to [[BeyondTheImpossible advance the ship to Warp 9.9]]
