    I wish they showed off different views on the iPad. I'm hoping for a nice overhead view that shows the entire table at once.

    I think that is the best video they have posted yet !

    They nailed pinball on the iPad...the graphics looks like a real machine and the physics look spot on !

    Agreed. It looks great.

    I really like the view too, and how the DMD is right where it is in real life. That's the perfect camera angle, IMO, but I would set it so it never moves around.

    Yes, there absolutely must be fixed views in both portrait in landscape modes or I will be extremely disappointed.

    I'm almost certain there will be. There were numerous fixed and moving views for The Williams Collection when they released that, so I can't see them putting out a game that didn't have it, I just want to see how it looks.

    Any word on compatibility for those of us with the original iPad? It'd be a sad day if we were left out in the cold.

    They've stated it will run on original ipad, and run well.

    Don't worry. There ARE fixed views, several of them!! I have both older Pinball Arcade versions for the PSP and they have 3 different fixed views and 3 different "dynamic" views.

    The dynamic views are MUCH better done than on any other pinball game. They are "smart" so that they don't move around all the time. Only when the ball goes all the way to the top it will snap there so you can control the various lit lanes and features easier.

    Pinball Arcade is pretty much THE perfect pinball sim in my opinion.. at least it's on the PSP (and I've only heard positive things of the Xbox360 and PS3 versions).

    Cheers!

    They'll be posting a video showing an iPhone 4 playing the game later today, and I'm sure it'll be posted in this thread by one of the frequenters of their Facebook page.

    I keep hoping for a video that shows all the views on iOS devices. Maybe for 1000 "likes."

    "The Pinball Arcade We'll be talking to Apple this week to pick a date."

    BTW, the next video is an Android device.
