[QUOTE="StarDust4Ever, post: 83235, member: 3033"] I must confess, I got tired of waiting for the Wii-U version to come out, so I jumped ship and downloaded Pinball Arcade on my new Ouya (I bought a pre-launch Ouya from a Kickstarter backer and I've been loving Pinball Arcade for about a month now and I've purchased all the tables so far). I think Ouya will be better anyway as a set-top pinball emulator, because the approval process is extremely slow on PS3 and currently non-existent on Xbox360. Judging by the wait time for the Wii-U version, it seems that updates will be slow on Wii-U just like the other consoles. Maybe a $30 budget disc based PHOF release combining the old Williams/Gottlieb compilations in HD would be a good idea? People could then download additional tables as DLC. Another advantage to releasing TPA on a Nintendo console is that it may finally be possible to release the Gottlieb Mario themed tables. I don't know how the TPA people would feel about acquiring and digitizing the Mario tables, since Nintendo would probably mandate they be exclusive to Nintendo platforms. I for one, as a die-hard Mario fan, would love to play this table: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTVPffQl3sw[/url] If you do own a Wii-U and are craving some Pinball action, I recommend Zen Pinball in the meantime.
