Introducing Arcade2TV™ Pinball FX™ Edition: Built for Pinball. Made to Be Felt.

Oct 13, 2026

Arcade2TV Pinball FX Edition single-player control deck with chrome controls, trackball, spinner and right-hand plunger

Meet Arcade2TV™ Pinball FX™ Edition, the new X-Arcade × Zen Studios pinball-first controller designed for Pinball FX VR. It brings the physical controls and feedback pinball players expect into one dedicated single-player setup, with two-stage Hall-effect flippers, a spring-loaded analog plunger, flipper solenoids, four SSF haptic motors, a launch button and built-in nudge controls.

The idea is simple: keep what makes pinball feel like pinball while finding new ways to play it.

Two stages. More control at your fingertips.

Two-stage Hall-effect flipper buttons can register a partial press and a full press separately, giving supported games independent lower and upper flipper inputs from one button.

Additional side controls put more inputs within easy reach. Feature support varies by game and configuration, so check current compatibility details for your setup.

The illuminated center flipper button senses two stages of travel, with additional chrome buttons on either side.

Pull back a real plunger. Make the shot yours.

A spring-loaded analog plunger brings familiar pull-and-release control to supported games, while a green-lit launch button gives you another way to send the ball into play. Built-in nudge sensing adds another physical part of the pinball experience.

The goal is simple: keep the physical controls pinball players know while bringing them into a new way to play.

Built to be felt. 

Four SSF haptic motors bring physical feedback through the controller, while separate flipper solenoids add impact to every flip. Integrated stereo speakers bring the sound into the same setup.

Physical vibration and volume controls let you adjust the experience to your setup. Available feedback features depend on game and platform support; see the product page for current compatibility details.

Pinball first. Arcade ready.

When you want to switch things up, a joystick, remappable push buttons, illuminated trackball and integrated spinner give you more ways to play compatible arcade games on PC and Steam Deck.

Customize your controls through the software configurator or directly on the controller. RGB lighting in the marquee and trackball completes the setup.

Arcade2TV™ Pinball FX™ Edition is built around one player. If side-by-side arcade play is your priority, explore the two-player Arcade2TV™-XR MAX.

Build the setup that fits your room.

Choose the controller on its own for a tabletop setup, or pair it with the matching pedestal for a dedicated place to play. Wired USB-C, Bluetooth and an included 2.4 GHz wireless dongle give you multiple connection options for supported setups.

Platform and feature support varies by game and setup. See the current compatibility guide for PC, Steam Deck, Meta Quest and supported console configurations before choosing your setup.

Choose your game option.

Choose between Game Included and Hardware Only configurations. Eligible Game Included controllers include one Pinball FX VR™ base-game entitlement for your selected supported platform. Choose Meta Quest or Steam through the redemption portal after receiving the controller.

Game entitlements apply to one eligible supported platform and do not unlock multiple platform versions. Hardware Only and Pedestal Only configurations do not include the game. See the product page for current platform, redemption and compatibility details.

Before your first game

Is this a complete game system?

It is a controller with integrated feedback and audio. A compatible host runs the game. Headsets, computers, consoles and console adapters are sold separately.

Do I need VR to use it?

No. Compatible flat-screen games can use the controller without a headset. VR titles require the appropriate headset, hardware and game version.

Will every game support every pinball feature?

No. Two-stage flippers, analog plunger input, nudging and dedicated feedback features depend on game and platform support. Check current compatibility details for your setup.
