It's very interesting how this has evolved over the last couple years with no interest inititially to a possibility to a full fledged release now. I wonder if it will happen for other platforms as well...

I didn't think TPA was getting a retail release.. What's included on it?

spoonman · Dec 15, 2013

Is this the same as the PAL release?

The description could really use more details. Like how about which tables are included...?

Product Description
The Pinball Arcade for PS4 features exact recreations of the all-time greatest pinball tables from Williams, Bally, Stern, and Gottlieb together in one game. Every flipper, bumper, sound effect, and display pixel has been painstakingly emulated in astonishing detail!

Good price if its the whole Season 1 and 2.

It only includes season one tables (the PS4 version of season two isn't finished yet). A retail release is great news for those who want a physical copy, but I'll be skipping this since I don't want to have to insert a disc every time I want to play TPA. All post-season-one tables will be DLC-only anyway, so it makes more sense to just go DLC from the onset, in my opinion. Plus, that bundled $10 promotional code is burning a hole in my PSN wallet!

Oh no; the poor people that use that store: Just Dance 2014 has sold out!

So North America only at the mo, as the PS4 is region free could import it though! Glad a physical version exists

There's supposedly a UK disc version too, in fact it was reported (as upcoming) months ago. Uh in one of the threads here, don't remember which.

Amazon UK have it as in stock...

That manual has one of my pet peeves of pinball terminology. It says that you use the left sick to "nudge the ball" and that this simulates "tilting the table". No, you nudge the table and "tilt" is the penalty for nudging too much. Nudge is an action. Tilt is a penalty.

Will get this and the download version as well. Why? No idea, I like burning cash.

Crazy that PS4 got a surprise full disc release under a new piblisher yet the 360 version remains in limbo and the xbone remains, well, boned.

DaPinballWizard · Dec 15, 2013

Actually, not crazy at all.

jrolson · Dec 15, 2013

I take it from the manual that the PS4 controller's touchpad has no use in PA. Was hoping it could be used to scroll through tables or used to nudge...

Anyone who tried the demo know if it has any function?

It didn't have any function when I played it.

Gorgar · Dec 15, 2013

So, does anyone who has it know if there is a way to install the disc version on the hard drive so that I don't have to put the disc in every time I want to play it? And will updates and dlc for the disc version work the same as the psn version?
