I tried setting my ST to 5 ball but felt so dirty. Might as well take the glass off or start driving sheet metal screws into the outlanes. I quickly set it back to 3 ball play because that's just how it's suppose to be. I do change settings for easier extra balls but you still have to make shots to get them. My kids may like it better with 5 balls but don't think it will change the experience that much. They are not into pinball like I am.
