Much appreciated! Trying this family guy out now! Are the leaderboards console specific? Thanks again!

Hey,
the leaderboards are available for all platforms connected!

Hope this helps!

Already enjoying this and getting addicted again. Zen is and always has been my weakness. I've sunk no less then 1000 hours on various tables and hate to say it seems like I'm heading that way once again.

Anyone know if we are playing on the go away from wifi, will our scores upload to leaderboards whenever we reconnect to internet?

I just downloaded Zen Pinball 3 for Switch, got the free tables, and bought The Zen Originals Season 1 bundle, Universal pinball, Aliens VS Pinball and Balls of Glory packs, after a one gigabite download all of them unlocked as expected, exept the universal pack. It showed as purchased on the Eshop, but was greyed out in the table list ,I can't seem to delete and re-download downloadable content for the game, so I just tried deleting and redownloading the entire game. This seems to have fixed the issue but I wonder if this is a bug in the game, or the E-shop.

When I play in handheld mode and use a non static view (one that follows the ball), I notice a lot of choppyness, it actually makes it hard sometimes to keep a ball in play. Anyone else have this issue?

Japan eShop?

Is there an arrival date for the Japan eShop?

The game is running at just 30fps (supposedly, more like 27) in handheld mode. That's the choppiness you're experiencing. It's regular 60fps in console/TV mode.

I agree it's quite disorientating. I don't think I can play the game like this. Which is a shame as I was so excited for this version and the vertical mode actually is such a great feature.

It's disappointing it's not 60fps as this is the standard for pinball games on every platform. Even Pinball Arcade on Switch is 60fps in handheld mode.

I've noticed Son of Zeus is darn near impossible to play handheld mode. Way too much slow down and the rumble while feels nice is way to excessive.

I had to turn off the rumble mode for all the tables. Just didn’t work for me.

Love the game and especially the vertical mode. But I seem to have the habit of gripping the bottom joycon firmly, which results in pressing the right triggers. This disables the touch screen, is it possible to disable the hardware buttons all together while playing?

Hey there,
I forwarded this request to our Switch developers and they'll see if it's possible or not!
Kind regards!

Does the game run in the low or high-performance mode when portable?

I really hope you guys can make it 720p @ 60FPS when portable. It would be perfect! And if you're currently using the low-power mode, I would be more than willing to sacrifice some minutes of gameplay to get a smooth 60FPS.

Wow... it's been like ages since I posted something here on the forum... (360 days of FX1) The Switch brought me back. I sure hope we get more tables on Switch... This will be my main FX3 device

Gratz Zen for being in the scene for such a long time!
