The Pinball Arcade returns to the Switch eShop
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Update (5/21): In addition to North America, The Pinball Arcade can also now be downloaded from the European eShop.
Original (5/11): 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. It’s free to download, with a bunch of table packs that can be purchased separately.

The Pinball Arcade quickly pulled from the Switch eShop

After it was listed one day prior to release, The Pinball Arcade did end up on the Switch eShop. However, the game was quickly pulled.
Developer FarSight Studios says that the removal was due to a licensing issue. Once that’s been taken care of, The Pinball Arcade will be added back to the eShop. We’ll be sure to let you know when that happens.

It’s been an extremely long wait for The Pinball Arcade on Wii U. We first heard about an eShop version way back in 2012, but there have been some major setbacks along the way. Things finally appear to be wrapping up though, as FarSight Studios shared a new release window on its Facebook page. The Pinball Arcade will finally be available on Wii U in early 2016 if all goes as planned.

The Pinball Arcade’s Wii U version in doubt again
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Just a few days ago, we heard about FarSight Studios’ plan to bring The Pinball Arcade to New 3DS. But there is another Nintendo version that has long been in development – that is, the Wii U edition.
Some recent comments made by The Pinball Arcade lead designer Bobby King suggested that the Wii U version could still be on the way… but perhaps not. Check out this statement from The Pinball Arcade support team:
Right now we have no concrete plans to bring our game to the Wii U. It’s still in the cards but no definite groundwork has yet been laid out.
That doesn’t sound too encouraging, sadly!
