Zen Studios' well-received pinball series Zen Pinball fires onto the 3DS eShop this Thursday.

Versions of Zen Pinball are already available for PS3 and iPhone. Xbox 360 alter ego Pinball FX has been out since 2007.

Zen Pinball arrives on 3DS priced £4.50 and comes with four tables borrowed from existing Zen Pinball incarnations: Earth Defence, Shaman, Excalibur and Eldorado.

Local hot seat multiplayer, online leaderboards and plenty of unlockables are available.

Players are ranked based on their Pro Score - a sum of your highest entry on each table - and Team Score, which adds in your friend's scores too.

Elsewhere, Game Boy Pac-Man clone Lock 'n' Chase is this week's 3DS Virtual Console launch, while RTS series Castle Conqueror assaults Nintendo's DSiWare service with its latest incarnation, Revolution.

There's also arcade garden ornament fighter Gnomz for WiiWare and a Blackjack game for DSiWare.
