To summarize: no, yes, and maybe.

The Pinball Arcade has been given release details for Wii, Wii U, and 3DS on the game's official Facebook page.

In regards to a Wii version, developer FarSight Studios stated that "Unfortunately, the Wii isn't powerful enough to run Pinball Arcade," but concerning a Wii U version, FarSight is "very excited about the Wii-U and hope to release as close to the launch of the platform as possible."

The studio also spoke to the uncertainty of the title's future on 3DS.

"We have a plan to get the performance we need out of the 3DS to run the ROM emulation, however some R&D is needed before we know for sure whether it will work. The 3DS version is on hold until we can invest the time and resources into this R&D."

Bummer! I'm really looking forward to the 3DS version. I dl'ed the demo for 360 but I love how the added depth of the 3D screen helps pinball games, and so I was going to hold off on buying it for XBLA since I don't love double-purchasing the same game. Now I might have to pull the trigger....  or wait for Wii-U.
