New tables are waiting for DLC support from Nintendo.

Zen Pinball 3D will receive new tables in approximately two to three months, according to a Zen Studios representative posting on the company's forums. The availability of DLC is dependent on Nintendo support through the eShop.

In response to a customer question regarding the upcoming tables, the representative stated, "We'll be adding more tables when Nintendo implements the functionality to do so...should be in 2-3 months, last I heard."

Zen Studios has not announced which tables will be made available, though they have a wide variety to choose from. Aside from the four tables included in the 3D version, players of other versions of Zen Pinball can already access a number of other tables including Tesla, V12, Sorcerer's Lair, Paranormal, Mars, Epic Quest, Rollercoaster, and Inferno. They also have created tables representing games (Street Fighter II, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, and Ms. Splosion Man), Marvel comics (Wolverine, Captain America, Thor, Spider-Man, Blade, Iron Man, Fantastic Four, Hulk, Ghost Rider, Moon Knight, and X-Men), and others (Speed Machine, Extreme, Agents, Buccaneer, Nightmare Mansion, and Rocky and Bullwinkle).

Zen Pinball 3D launched in North America on January 12 and is available on the eShop for $6.99.

This is just the perfect sort of game to have on hand on your 3DS for a quick session while on the go, and if DLC is released regularly at a fair price I can see it continuing to be so for a very long time. The Marvel tables especially would be great to have.

This is great news. I'm loving the game and more tables will keep things fresh. I just hope they're affordable.

Yeah, I just picked this up the other day and its a great game.  The 3d is amazing and its the best I've seen on the 3ds thus far.  Hopefully more people pick this up, it deserves to be a success.  Excaliber FTW!!!!!

If the SFII table is the one I'm thinking of, I certainly look forward to it. The tables that come with it are pretty good too.

Zen Pinball 3D is definitely my favorite game of 2012 so far. I'm actually number 2 on the US leader board and number 104 in the world for the Excalibur table. That will probably change in the morning though. It is hard to keep a position. My highest score is 63,544,000.

Oooh! I hope we get the Tesla table! It looks cool (love the aesthetic). I hope they aren't too expensive though.

EDIT: Actually, scratch that. I've just seen the "Paranormal" table. That's the one I want (or both, hopefully).

The timeframe syncs up with GDC. I wonder if that's when we'll see the new content. I'm looking forward to it, and if other platforms are any indication, the new tables will cost something like $2.50.
