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.
