Zen Studios explains why Star Wars Pinball 3D took so long, says DLC coming and reconfirms 3DS commitment
Coming from a Beefjack interview with Mel Kirk of Zen Studios...
“The Force system was not changed from previous versions of the game. We found the feature to be really well-accepted by players, so we left this alone and decided not to mess with something that people have been enjoying.”
- Balance of the Force tables DLC will come to 3DS, but “there is not a specific date set.”
“There have been a ton of players reaching (screaming) to us to get the game out, so I think there will be a lot of people who are really happy to finally have it on their 3DS. Zen Pinball 3D and Marvel Pinball 3D have been very well-received on 3DS, and I would expect Star Wars Pinball to do the same.
Pinball in 3D is pretty complex, and we have certain limitations with the 3DS hardware that makes the process take even longer. I am afraid we will likely always be behind with 3DS, but we are certainly committed to the platform and 3DS players. It just takes a little longer to get things to the platform.
I would like to say thank you to all the players who support Zen Studios. We can continue doing what we love only because players are willing to support us. Apologies for the time it has taken to get Star Wars Pinball to the 3DS, but we could not rush this and give you a sub-par experience.”
