"Here are a few things you can copy/paste from last year:

Day 3: We will be implementing a new and improved interface that will greatly improve the user experience in 2014!

Day 8: Today, we wanted to talk a little bit about our new action game, Orbals!...We'll be releasing the first 30 free-to-play levels in early 2014!

Day 9: We are in the process of designing a challenge mode within the game to go head to head with a player of your choice.

Day 10: Prepare yourself Linux users! We are proud to announce that Farsight Studios has begun working on the Steam Linux version of Pinball Arcade!

Day 11: We are working on a 'Pinball After Dark' app with more mature themed tables. The new app will also include the online head to head feature to keep things exciting in 2014!"

These can be copy/pasted from 2 years ago:

For the 7th day of a Pinball Arcade Christmas, we're including as detailed a 360 update as we can today: We anticipate submitting this new version of the Pinball Arcade in January. With any luck and with your support, 2013 will be the year of the Pinball Arcade on 360 with 40 tables available by the end of the year!

For the 11th day of a Pinball Arcade Christmas, we have captured the Nintendo Wii-U version being played on a development kit here at
FarSight. We are on track to get the launch pack submitted to Nintendo before the end of January.

The other days can be used to announce a new table, a new supported device or the start of a new tournament.

You're welcome."

All good things come to those who wait.

So, by this definition, these must not be very good things:

ROM emulation for older tables
The WiiU version of TPA
The Xbox 360 version of TPA
Pinball After Dark
Bug fixes for the riddled PS4 version
DirectX 11 support
Cab support for PC version
Orbals

Only now, at this late hour, do I finally get it.

Not much for the hard core fans that already have all the tables. But it's nice foreople on the fence about buying.

This is new news in an old thread, however it is interesting to see all the promises made at Christmas last year... Locking the thread for the other more current one.
