Street Fighter table coming to Pinball FX on XBLA

     Xbox Live Arcade

File this one under random, and a good reason you'll want to buy Pinball FX on Xbox LIVE Arcade. 

Capcom has announced that they've teamed with ZEN Studios to deliver an officially licensed Street Fighter table for Pinball FX on November 12. The table features artwork and sound effects from the original Street Fighter II, as well as special combo shots and animated punches and special moves. 

No word on pricing, but Pinball FX will set you back 800 MS Points, and other tables -- like ZEN's Rocky & Bullwinkle table -- went for about 200 MS Points a piece. The good news: unlike playing Street Fighter, the 360's shoddy d-pad won't necessarly impact your pinball performance. The bad news: this table isn't Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, which still doesn't have a solid release date.

ZEN Studios Partners with Capcom® to Bring Street FighterTM to Pinball FX!
Officially licensed themed table is the latest expansion for the best selling Xbox LIVE Arcade pinball game

Budapest, Hungary –November 5, 2008 – ZEN Studios, a videogame developer and digital publisher known for its innovative arcade, strategy and action games, announced today it is working with Capcom® to release an officially licensed Street Fighter™ table for Pinball FX in celebration of the soon to be released Super Street Fighter™ II Turbo HD Remix. Pinball FX is the latest in a wide selection of pinball tables for one of the best selling titles on Xbox LIVE® Arcade for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. The table will launch on Xbox LIVE Arcade for Xbox 360 on November 12th, 2008.

“It is so great to bring this awesome intellectual property of Capcom’s over to Pinball FX. I’ve long been a fan of the Street Fighter franchise and felt they made the best fighting games regardless of platforms,” said Zsolt Kigyossy, managing director of ZEN Studios. “This is our fourth expansion table for Pinball FX, and we will continue to work hard to give our fans the best possible pinball game with loads of tables and variety.”

“Capcom is pleased to team up with ZEN Studios to kick off our celebration of Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix immanent release,” said Christian Svensson, VP of Strategic Planning and Business Development at Capcom Entertainment Inc. “Capcom aims to be one of the top providers of digitally delivered game content in the industry and teaming up with ZEN Studios adds an entirely new dimension to our portfolio of competitive titles.”

With this new table, the legendary Street Fighter franchise comes alive in an all-new Pinball FX experience. Street Fighter™ II Pinball FX comes loaded with the characters that revolutionized the fighting genre and created a global legacy like no other. Experience the arcade thrills of traditional pinball with enhanced gameplay, unparalleled graphical detail and innovative features not found in any other pinball game, such as:

    * Enter the World Warrior Championship fighting as Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, and Guile and battle against Sagat, Evil Ryu, Vega, and Balrog, then win the final round of the championship against M. Bison!
    * Discover special combo shots, animated punches, kicks and special moves as you fight against opponents using ramps and a variety of orbit shots.
    * Multiple in-game challenges featuring objects, art and memorable items from Street Fighter™ II.
    * Table soundtrack, sound effects and voices from the original Street Fighter II.
    * Brand new hot-seat multiplayer.

I'm just stoked that there's another new Pinball FX table. It's a seriously great pinball title, and $3 for a new table is far from outrageous, particularly since it has unique art, sound, design, and programming.

I'm just mad that HD Remix may come out after Street Fighter IV, making it irrelevant.

Hell, it coming out a month before it makes it irrelevant. I'm especially going to pass on it if it's over 800 points. I can just save my money for a real game.

Mad props and respect to you, sir.

I know I will get this theme (maybe its the cheap-o in me sometimes) and I will be like a rattatole on a wheel of cheese or like a cat on a plate o' chicken & gravy.

I just hope it isn't more than 300-400 points then it may be a wait and see if anyone else gets this.

Awesome, more Pinball FX tables are always appreciated. With the amount of time I've personally put into each one of those DLC tables, 300-400 points would be a fair price to me. I'm betting it'll probably be 200 like the other ones though.

I might pick this up. As much as I'd love the art to be made by Udon.. the cheesey-ness of it makes it look authentic. remember any other real pinball tables after licenses? OMG!!! The real one is Way funnier than the digital one!
