In February 2010, the source code of Visual Pinball was released under a license that allows free use for non-commercial purposes. Newer versions also added touch controls, making it possible to play on tablet computers and smartphones. Visual Pinball can be used to play the simulations on a common desktop PC and monitor, but also allows for cabinet support, including different monitors and TVs (to display the playfield and backbox similar to a real pinball machine, including the option to use 3D televisions), giving the illusion of playing real pinball. Visual Pinball's scripting capabilities can also be used to create pinball-like games (such as pitch-and-bat baseball, pinball bingo, bowling, cue sports, and pachinko).
Players can choose between faithful recreations of existing pinball machines with or without ROM emulation and original pinball simulations based on licensed themes or completely self-designed tables. The program is also able to operate with Visual PinMAME, an emulator for ROM images from real pinball machines.Ī huge variety of user-created Visual Pinball tables are available on the internet.
