It's only 2 player on other platforms, so we will probably get it in the next update. 4 player would seemingly be easy, as the Stern code is already made for it.

But to be honest, I've never played any handheld games with other people. Much like masturbation, some activities are just better alone.

It has always been $19.99 everytime I've looked at the e-shop, this is not a special deal IMO. Waiting for $10 or less.

Yes. The Pinball Arcade dropped today but with the absence of B/W titles. Apparently there were licensing issues.

I searched Google this morning and it was $35-59 everywhere for the Switch.

Were you thinking of Xbox or Playstation?

No. I downloaded the software for my son's Switch months ago. It allows you to play Frankenstein but the other tables are unplayable until you buy. Everytime I've looked at the price it is $19.99.

I paid 39.99 for mine when it came out. This game was quite hard to find (physical copy). This is a good deal

Tried this on the switch and it plays much better than I thought. The rumble really add to it. It sucks that you can't get the old games anymore

Yeah I've been hearing a ton about hacks to the switch. Apparently custom firmware is going to be released soon.

btw - I checked and the price for me on the eshop digital for this game is 40 bucks so 20 is a steal...

Is there any lag between the button press to the flipper? PS4 was pretty bad when it came to that.

First time I actually saw a list of what games are on there. Any description I saw on this game didn't say what machines it has. Thanks Vid

There was when I tried the initial release of it. Oddly, there is no lag on the Xbox version.

Try putting your TV into "game" mode. Often it will help with that.
