This couples nicely with what has been one of my favourite features involving Zen Pinball tables and the Switch, which is the ability to play the games in a vertical mode instead of horizontal. Probably the most notable is the Career Mode, which puts the tables together in a way that is meant to be quick and accessible – which plays to the Switch’s strengths when you are taking it on the go. That allowed the development team to do some unique things with this collection, because everything is Star Wars-centric here. Star Wars Pinball on the Nintendo Switch however, is focused just on Star Wars, living in its own ecosystem. It offers a nice sense of connectivity (you can read several of Matt’s reviews and thoughts around Pinball FX 3 here) between a wide collection of tables that range from original creations, real world pinball classics, the Marvel franchise and of course Star Wars titles as well. For those familiar with the Pinball FX 3 series on other platforms like the PlayStation 4, it is a free framework that comes with a single game, and then you buy the tables individually or through packages and access them through there. Right out of the gates, I realised that this was going to be a bit different than most of the other pinball offerings from Zen Studios, as the team eschewed their usual Pinball FX 3 framework and made this a standalone package. Some of those new ideas work better than others, but on the whole the Force is strong with this offering. The newly released Star Wars Pinball for the Nintendo Switch is an impressive collection of tables that serves to bring the entire package together in a different way than the usual offerings from Zen Studios.
