Really, Zen Studios bought the rights? Totally missed this news!
I don't know how to feel about this.
Zen Studios has done some interesting stuff. Their fantasy tables are a mixed bag in my opinion, and they are one of the few teams out there who seem serious about creating interesting pinball experiences. At the same time, there are some problems with several of their releases that have lingered - stuff like one of the Star Wars tables on 3DS being literally broken, with no intent on their end to fix it. (I know that's a low value release for them, and that it's on underpowered hardware. It should still work.)
Having one studio work on preservation of classic tables and creation of new content seems odd. Maybe consolidating will make them the resident experts and ensure they are a big enough company to do a good job on both fronts. Maybe not, in which case we'll end up with a bunch of shitty ports as broodwars fears.
