wrote to the guys asked the question about screen rotation, response was yes soon a update will come out so the screen can be rotated so people can do a visual cabinet or mini cabinet with a improved viewing angle for this view

I might do a PS4 mini pinball cocktail table  $#$

Unsure if it is my ipad4 or not but playing the free version the right flipper is not very responsive and can miss flips when pressed. Dunno if its a bug due to the gun trigger function.

Also anyone bought pinball 101. Is it worthwhile and if so, would you recommend the stream buy or a dvd purchase from the maker. Having it on my iPad means I cant put on my tv without buying an apple tv gizmo to go with my other 200 gizmos  ^&^

Not sure on iPad issue, but there will always be bugs to fix and FARSIGHTare pretty quick  to adress  these.
Pinball 101 is enjoyable to watch an you will pick up some tips.
Always buy a hard copy ie: DVD etc. that way you can cross platform your toys if one breaks down.
There are media streamers for iPad, you just need a newer tv, computer or whatever you are using.
I use a streamer from my iMac to PS3 to amp for music/video. You just have to look around

Just tested and it works fine on  Android 10 inch. The gun trigger has a button towards the top right of screen away from the flipper area.

If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.

on pin arcade you can only buy pin 101 as a streaming option. so you can never have a copy on your device but can download in real time as many times as you like. problem is your streaming via youtube I think and its not buffering at all. so you get a few seconds then it stops and you have to press play and get another 2 seconds and it stops. if you leave it there is no progression or buffering so I'm no closer to a resolution.

Ah makes sense now, thanks Rob, I'd never tapped on the video button on pinball arcade so just found then. I'm off to check it out now. Cheers.

I don't know if it is the same one but you can download Pinball 101 as it's own dedicated App for the ipad
