Incredible all of the Zen pinball tables I own will be packed into one game. Switching games from Marvel to Zen Pinball was kind of a regular thing for me during my pinball runs. All of the tables are a blast to play and now everything will be put into one. I really appreciate that this is now possible and going through the trouble of touching up already great tables to be featured in the new game is something I can truly thank you and respect you guys for.

I’m always waiting for the next Zen Pinball update but I never suspected this! All I can is thank you for making this available.

Zsolt,
I know I’m late to the party but thanks so much for the awesome news! You guys are the best! Just two questions:

1.) What are the chances of getting a God of War table?

2.) What are the chances of a Marvel table featuring Archangel and Apocalypse?

I just bought Pinball Arcade and I love it except for the fact that you can not customize the control setting the way you want. For example, in portrait mode, the nudge control is the back touch screen … do you know how hard it is to hold the vita without touching that back touch screen … you tilt when you didn’t even want to nudge and don’t nudge when you want you … please consider this. One thing you can take from the Pinball Arcade though is the rule sheets, they are excellent step by step instructions with pics … Zen needs much better rule sheets !!!

1 – Thanks to you, I’m glad I picked up the vita.

2 – I liked the way I could map the plunger to the R2 button on the marvel tables because it felt more natural. On the vita will I be able to map it to the right thumbstick so I will have more precise control?

3 – I also have the 3DS version and I love the portable 3D effect… Is there any chance of seeing similar treatment on the 3DS in the future?

4 – I like your company and if the update is as good as I think it will be, I’m going to buy all the tables I’m missing.

“You can map the flippers to directional buttons (left flipper) and circle button (right flipper)”

Okay, that is just TOO cool. That is icing on a *terrific* cake, Zsolt, and I, like everyone else, just can’t wait! Whenever I fire up my PS3, I play a few games of Marvel pinball as a matter of course; I’m stuck at 39% of the trophies, dammit, and this might be just the ticket to get me past that! I’m champing at the bit for the update; thanks for the slick news!

Zen you are making my pinball dream come true with this lovely news. I own all the tables on ps3, xbl, and Tegra2 so it will be nice to have them on my Vita. Only wish would be separate trophies sets but other than that great way to support your fans. I can’t wait to play all your great tables on the Vita because after playing them on my 50in 3dtv and my 10.1in Xoom its hard to play the 3ds version but since the Vita supports portrait I can and will get down on that. I am glad you are also supporting 3d because I love 3d gaming on my Panny and now I’m more stoked for Zen Pinball 2. Thank you for your hard work and great games.

@97;
Yep, that answers my question, thanks for the response. Hopefully we’ll still be able to go back and earn the original trophies from Zen Pinball 1 and Marvel Pinball after we’ve made the conversion. Not sure if I’ll ever be able to complete some of those silver trophies but ya never know, attempting to complete them, and beating all my friends high scores keeps me comin back. : )

Hey, I just got The Pinball Arcade game that came out today, and I was wondering something….Will you guys be holding tournaments like they will be once more tables come out? Also, might I suggest the following for tables:
Eureka, Doctor Who, Batman, X-men, Superman, Justice League, and Alcatraz (the tv show, not just the location).
Am I right in assuming Plants Vs. Zombies is coming as the table from Popcap?

I’m a big fan and have every single table on both marvel and Zen 1. Can’t wait to have every thing in one place. I know there most likely won’t happen but did you guys add a view mode so that you can rotate your 16:9 screen long ways like future pinball?
