Is there no way for them to do that now?
One Holy Grail might be to buy someone's Nintendo Network ID if they managed to purchase the full Pinball Arcade for the Switch from the eShop in the few hours before it was pulled (provided it remains full instead of being cancelled and the purchase price being refunded by Nintendo).

If it’s not working contact Farsight support.

That´ll be great, but -to be honest - Zero Chance.

Never saw the show but ive played the Game of Thrones table at least 30 times. I bet the instructions would be soooo long for GOT. Not one of my favorite tables at all but having it on TPA would get me to actually learn the entire rules. First time I played it was in a match against Bowen Kerins and he absolutley went nuts on the thing while telling me how to play it.

Cool of him to share his knowledge while crushing you. Gotta love that guy.

HBO is a subsidiary of Warner Bros, and from everything I've heard they are too pricey for FarSight to license from. I wouldn't put the chances at zero, but it's very slim.

I read Stern started to include digital versions rights in the licenses sometime around metallica/star trek (2013). GoT came out in 2015 but maybe it was excluded.

I'm sure it varies from table to table. Just because one company agrees to such a thing, doesn't mean another has to. And it's not like Stern is going to disclose details like that to us, so we'll never know exactly which tables they can grant FS the rights to and which ones they can't.
What's the term for the opposite of the holy grail? For Stern I think the answer is https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/The_Simpsons_Kooky_Carnival - something I'd never heard of until I saw one today. So if anyone asks for the Simpsons make dang sure it ain't this. It says Stern Pinball on it, and has some pinball parts in it, but its not pinball.
Zens pinball games are for fun? They're failing miserably.

I've noticed two things.Well, things have been rather dull around TPA since the 30th of JuneI mean the tables we have are still fun but we got crickets now...
Looking at the younger companies like JJP, and that other one from my home state (is it Spooky?)...I am not sure why they would want to go digital, but that would be awesome if Farsight could get 'em.
And unless I missed (highly possible) something, we still don't really know what Scientific had in mind by pulling the licensing from FarSight.
A Star trek table has made it to the pinball arcade app on iOS. I think it was a stern app exclusive.
Also in the iOS stern app, the AC/DC table exists, but without the sound and scoring display. The table itself still functions. Strange goings on.

Care to elaborate? Because that is an extreme opinion with nothing to back it up.
