Gaming ace attorney 5 digital only release

[ShadowNeko003]

I can't see myself forking over $40 for this digital release only. And stuff on the eshop hardly ever goes on sale. If I wasn't a student and have a job, I might think of buying it, but at this point, I'm really only jumping on great deals or Tales of games.

Found her in the new trailer. Looks like Ema Skye?

It's Athena. But I wonder why she's standing there alone (or at least on the right side instead of the left side).

At least we get it I suppose. Still really shitty though. Japan gets the whole shabang, preorder limited edition and everything.

I hope they at least let us use the original Japanese voices w/ subtitles but I doubt it.

Don't get your hopes up.. haha. Has anyone done that?

I know Dead or Alive: Dimensions allows you to choose between Japanese or English voices and English subtitles on or off. Also it's a console game but Street Fighter IV allows you to set each character's language individually. (The 3DS version doesn't let you however)

Project X Zone has Japanese voices with English text but I don't think there's an English VO.

DISCLAIMER: Before you get overly excited and stuff, please remember all this does is POSSIBLY INCREASE the CHANCES of getting a physical release.

Okay? Keywords are possibly, increase chances.

Now that we've established that, on the the main point.

Spoiler: The main point

Though Dual Destinies is currently slated only for a digital release, Capcom’s Chris Svensson has acknowledged that the door isn’t fully closed on a physical one. Posting in the Capcom-Unity forums, Sven had this to say:

In the days after we announced AA5 for the West being digital only, and the requests of others for a physical release, we mobilized our US team to put together possible options that may address the concerns.

As a part of that process, Eshiro-san and I have met mulitple times, including the morning where he gave the interview where he made the statement above. I was not quite ready to open the possibility to folks until we had a few more ducks in a row but Eshiro suggested he mention the potential in an an interview he was having that afternoon.

So, if you’d like to be heard, you can post on this thread (I’ll leave it open), PM me on Capcom-Unity or hit up my twitter (@chrissvensson) as many folks already have. I need some additional ammo and these requests fit that need.

If things go well and demand is there, in a few weeks I may be able to present an option that puts the ball back in the fans’ court (in “tennis” terms, not “of law” terms). I want to stress the word “may” so as to not misrepresent the situation or promise anything. We are trying. Again, timing and pricing would be at a disadvantage to the digital option as an assumption you should make.

On the AAI2 front, Eshiro is very much a man who could push make that happen so I’m glad who whoever asked that question, did so, but I’ve got nothing more I can add there. I feel the point above is valid.

Again, it’s worth stressing that this is no guarantee of a physical release, even if there’s fan demand - however, the fact that Sven has provided an official route to requesting it, as well as held ongoing discussions with Eshiro, is encouraging.

If you want to show your support on Capcom-Unity, you can do so by posting in the topic there otherwise, hit him up on Twitter and keep spreading the word. Who knows what might happen?

So there you go. Get posting. If I am to be denied of the physical release that I want, at least I want to do everything in my power to prevent that in the first place. Good luck guys. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

tl;dr Go here and show your support for a physical release for a chance to get this considered.
