I have no idea what you're talking about...

Yeah, you'll need a legitimate copy of the physical game, unless you have a legit JPN eshop copy AFAIK.So once this is completed it will work on any 3DS and you'd just need an actual copy of the game?
Also, I've read that some people are apparently annoyed that you're not doing stuff like changing the names of the Japanese characters or changing the location like the whole "Japanifornia" thing the series is known for but I like that you're doing it that way.

Don't quote me on this though
I think I'd prefer to do the former anyway since it seems like I'd need to get a Japanese 3DS to do the latter.All I've heard is getting a physical copy. Haven't seen a word about the eShop copy.
Yeah, we haven't had many of those people since we released the Demo. It's a spin-off like Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright.So once this is completed it will work on any 3DS and you'd just need an actual copy of the game?

That's correct. I'm not sure we'll support the eShop copy right away, since there aren't that many people with a Japanese 3DS who can't read Japanese.I think I'd prefer to do the former anyway since it seems like I'd need to get a Japanese 3DS to do the latter.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
That would mean we'd have to rewrite essential parts of the story, while we don't know what they will do in the sequel(s). We've heard all the suggestions (notice how long this thread is?) and we made our decision. We will not change the story, names and places in any way. We do change some puns and jokes when we feel like they'd be lost on the player, though - but only if the change isn't too big. We do have some translation notes as well to accompany each Episode.I've heard people try to suggest things like saying Ryuunosuke changed his own name to Wright later in his life, calling him something like "Phoenicious Wright" and having the Japanese characters have different names but still have them be Japanese like "Suzaku Raito".
In the case of this game though I want to still call the characters by their Japanese names for reasons like, from what I've seen and heard, it's pretty clear you start off in Japan and then head to England so bringing California into it'd just be unnecessary anyway.
We made some good progress and hopefully there will be good news soon. No promises.
First of all this game isn't a New 3DS exclusive game so of course it will work on any 3DS that is hackable.Just to be clear, will only be able to play this on a certain 3DS model like the new 3DS?
I'm just wondering because I still use the one I got in 2013 I think.
Like Wuigi said, DGS works on all 3DS models. You'll get the best experience running it with a CFW like Luma3DS, though. Follow this guide to do that if you're still on 11.2 or lower, you can get help with this in this forum (but please not in this thread):Just to be clear, will I only be able to play this on a certain 3DS model like the new 3DS?

Yes, HANS is a last resort if your 3DS is on an unhackable firmware. We're trying to streamline the process, so what you're describing isn't completly accurate...First of all this game isn't a New 3DS exclusive game so of course it will work on any 3DS that is hackable.
They promised that it will be able to be used on a 3DS that is at least hacked on a userland level to be able to use HANS to redirect game file reads on the fly.
The problem with this is, that they don't want you to use a pirated copy that simply includes the localized parts so you will be forced to dump the game and additionally the Dual Destinies Demo for the English font yourself.
But as long as braindump still works and the imperfect dump made with it also can be used as it also works just on a userland level of access you should be just fine.
Soundhax is currently a free way to gain userland access on 11.3 so unless Nintendo releases an update in the near future you know what to do when it releases I guess.
when the patch releases.its 2017, when will the game release
sorry but does anyone know why it was never made in englishwhen the patch releases.
Rule no. 1: Never asks for a release date of a fan translation. Your kind of question will always be bashed for (or ignored if you're lucky).
sorry

What I read was that the game apparently makes some references to a number of the 10 Sherlock Holmes stories still copyrighted by the Conan Doyle Estate in the US. Of all the possible reasons I've heard this one sounds the most likely to me.CAPCOM hates us. Also some Sherlock Holmes things have copyright in United States and I heard that the game is racist in some aspects and CAPCOM EEUU didn't like that...
