Obi-Wan uses the Force to tell Luke the good news

Very recently we shared the news that a PEGI rating had been spotted for Star Wars Pinball on the 3DS, which was pleasing for fans that just can't get enough of the title.

Happily, Zen Studios has confirmed to Nintendo Everything that the title is indeed coming to the 3DS, but said nothing else apart from that more details will be available "very soon". We imagine those details will be mostly "like on consoles, but on 3DS", but there could be the odd surprise; perhaps the tables will be available to buy individually as on smartphones (unlikely) or the 3DS release could coincide with confirmation of more tables, as the Wii U version of the game has six mysterious, empty boxes on the front screen that would look better with actual content.

We'll know soon enough, but it's another welcome release for (presumably) the 3DS eShop.
