Well if I may go back a few months, Shu Takumi said that more likely than not, Phoenix Wright vs. Professor Layton wouldn't get localized due to the sales of the Ace Attorney games overseas.phoenixgoddess27 said:

maybe they are concentrating their funds to the 3ds now so the chances of truly getting an official translation is slim though i cant say a fan will not step up cuz i really think they will
its not too bad if they dont actually

I'll keep an eye on the Japanese game sites for everyone then. Just in case something new pops up.
Meh, you'd be surprised when the DS is on the end of its lifespan.
People realize there's still money to be made into it but don't want to dump a lot of money into developing a new game. So usually international games will get localized since all they really need to do is translate it, produce it, and ship it.
Considering the major cult following it has here at least, there'll probably be a fan translation of sorts.
I'd still wait to see what they do later in the year.

Dunno I actually prefer the flow of the Gyakuten Kenji games much better than the Gyakuten Saiban games. I think it's because you're always 'doing' something constructive that makes it feel better maybe? While I love the convoluted story lines, I think a lot of times I was just zipping through the dialogue. I think the paring down of the 'exploration' part of the game helps the game feel more tight, instead of wandering around talking to everyone in the hopes that SOMETHING will trigger then next thing. Having it confined to one or two areas ensures you don't ever get lost or stuck usually.

The only thing there is news of some silly rubber phone strap things featuring SD versions of the characters of the Ace Attorney series...
WHY AREN'T THESE ON EBAY! I NEED THEM NOW! I CANNOT WAIT TILL MAY!!
*knockback*
NRRGH! How can this be...?
Capcom, lemme say this; either you bring it here, or we will. Your choice.

They can't do this, not releasing an instalment of the series would leave a gaping hole in the franchise over in the West.
Holes would have to be filled in future releases, things would be unexplained, it'd turn into a clusterfuck of plotholes and issues that weakens the whole series.

It would be like leaving a story untold, but then letting the other people hear the rest of the story.

I would say the same but then I've never played the first....Duskye said:
Was the first installment "to be continued", is there confirmation of more titles in the series (such as AAI3, 4, 5, etc.), and are there other games or spin-offs that hint at AAI2?
It's still unfortunate for those that may be looking towards an NA release.
No, but if there's gonna be a 2 there, it should be here as well since they released the first here.nebula91 said:

There's probably going to be at least a 3rd AAI, considering that's where PW left off. I'm still waiting for an AJ2, or GS5 as it's currently known as.
Thing is, it's a cult classic. It is popular, but mainstream/impatient gamers don't feel like reading all of the talking and just ignore the game altogether. You'd be surprised, the sales were more than expected when it first came out (much more than expected), but now they're not so great (in their eyes, at least)..Darky said:

It's not "to be continued" per se, but the story is continued, we get to see more of the character Kay Faraday (The Maya Fey to Miles Edgeworth).
There's just something that urks me because of the way the guy said "No, Sorry 'bout that".
Usually when it comes to a popular franchise and there is no chance it'll come to the west, a developer will say something like "We don't have any plans to at this point, but maybe in the future" but no, we get a plain "No".
I don't buy it. *flashbacktoCatherineannouncment*

But... I haven't missed out on any AA title (except for that rare AA4 thing that Japan got that nobody cared about, Gyakuten Saiban Jiten or something) until now! I WANT.
