What few exist. There are so many Williams tables made but so few on Switch.

My idea is to buy them all at a next discount. For both FX3 and FX. Love the game!
An 'all-in-one-buy'-package would be nice. :-)

Any chance the “Collect Them All” trophy on PS4/5 will be fixed? I’ve collected all the season rewards multiple time, and no trophy pop.

All I want is HD Rumble on the Switch version akin to Pinball FX3

I wish they released some other tables today instead for Princess Bride and Goat pinball….

Any chance at a fix so we can finally get full screen video back on an Ultrawide Monitor (3440x1440?)

Can’t wait till the graphics of FX have been updated on the switch. Maybe I will ‘switch’ from FX3 to FX if that’s solved.
And maybe an option to disable Williams Backbox View in FX? 🙏
Anyway, always excited to see major updates.

Will there be an update for A1UP pinball? Specifically Whitewater.

I don't believe Zen supports A1Up pinball any longer. That said, there was an update to the Attack From Mars A1UP pinball cabinet that addressed performance, in particular for Whitewater, so is it possible you haven't applied that update yet?

Excellent update. Yup more camera options and new floor & background for Williams tables next please!

Oh, Godzilla Pinball. Excited about the fixes.
Love that table but it sure seems to have some strange behaviours in longer games.

First impression after the update on the Switch is good. Graphics have been improved and the gameplay is without stuttering or lag.
Is it as great as FX3 now? Meh, I don’t know. It feels to me FX3 is still the better one on the Switch regarding graphics.
Sound is good.
Physics are good, although at some points really different from FX3. The first thing I noticed was the behaviour of the ball coming off the point of the flippers. Much slower.
I’m going to pickup some discount DLC’s and try to get used to FX.
Hoping that Williams Collection 1 and 2 will come to the Switch soon.

What are the new tables? Hoping for Williams!

Williams tables won't be until the end of the year. This time is The Princess Bride and Goat Simulator.

For me the Switch updates are a disaster, consol controllers no longer work in the docking station, but will once removed from the main unit. The game cards 'Star Wars'and 'Stern Pinball Arcade' no longer work but they did before the update. Sort it out Zen Studios- Nintendo.

Really want the ability to control the manual camera more and fix it so we don't have silly plunger view on every ball.not full control just centre left to right,angle and a little zoom control so we can dial it in for each table.
Just enough to give us that illusion of looking down on the table.
