"The first thing I noticed when I played Pinball Arcade was the sound. It instantly sounded out dated in my headphones and that’s when it hit me. Pinball Arcade isn’t about remaking some of the greatest pinball tables ever, it’s about preserving them! That is exactly what Far Sight has set out to do and they have done a great job at keeping some of the greatest tables from all of the big names in the industry alive and true to their form."
The Pinball Arcade originally appeared on the Switch eShop last month. The thing is, it was only up for an incredibly short period. FarSight Studios had it removed due to a licensing issue. A month later, The Pinball Arcade is back up on the eShop – presumably for good.
FarSight Studios have announced that over 50 of their current tables will be pulled from the Pinball Arcade on June 30th due to a licensing deal ending.
Ok. So they might as well just take the game out of the retail and digital stores, because they are esentially killing it’s appeal by not renewing the licenses. Wow. Well, hopefully Williams and Midway do their own digital games. Id even pay $5000 plus for a full sized digital pinball machine that includes all of the classic tables. Just as long as it’s 4K. Which I think is FarSights biggest issue..
Not keeping up to date with new tables and the newer consoles and taking advantage of 4K, to help sharpen up the visuals. Which, really, would’ve just taken a resolution boost and 16xAF, maybe add some ambient occlusion to make the table some feel more three dimensional.
You should only worry about this if you've never played pinball fx. 😋
The Nintendo Switch will soon be home to a variety of pinball titles and the latest joining them is The Pinball Arcade. The Pinball Arcade news channel just arrived in Europe but the game has yet to get an official release date.
