Message: <blockquote data-quote="pinballmonster" data-source="post: 296694" data-attributes="member: 8047">Digital pinball with a controller kinda sorta makes sense. But there are just too many variables involved: the size and weight of the controller, the travel of the buttons, input errors, and the odd parallels or lack thereof of controller inputs vs actual pinball buttons and plungers. Pulling a plunger by swiping down on a screen and activating flippers by tapping, on a rectangular display feels a lot more natural than holding an enormous egg shaped controller in your hands and arbitrarily assigning functions to buttons and levers.You also have to take into account button/lever travel latency, so you have to hit shots (more than) slightly earlier with a controller, whereas tapping and swiping directly on the screen at least feels like the latency is minimized.As far as zen's business decisions, I'd imagine there's a lot less revenue for Williams tables compared to say, FPS games: COD, Fortnite, etc. They've got to grab any bag they're offered.</blockquote>
