New Ace Attorney Games Revealed

Earlier this week, Capcom announced that they are developing a new sequel to the ever popular Ace Attorney series. There are little to no details on this game, so stick around until we learn more info. It can be safely assumed, however, that this game will be released for the 3DS, as all of the Ace Attorney games have been developed for Nintendo handhelds. The other big announcement is that Capcom is developing HD versions of the first three Ace Attorney games for iOS and Android devices. Finally, Capcom shows Android some love!

I can say that once these games are released, you'd be doing yourself a great service if you get them. The Ace Attorney games have some great stories and charming characters, and you're missing out on a lot if you haven't played them yet.

Do not tell me it is another R-18 review, Sayuri. OBJECTION! As evidenced in the provided header image, your Honor; I am submitting a review of the Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney Official Casebook. Today, I will be taking at look both Official Casebook Volumes 1 and 2, which covers stories on Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth. Both of the books are entirely created by fans of series, making it like a collection of doujinshi stories based on the events of the Ace Attorney series all bundled together.

Miles Edgeworth and Phoenix Wright

There is not much of a plot to the books, as they are just collection of random stories based on the Ace Attorney series. Many of stories contain some great slapstick humor though. Some of the stories also tug at the heartstrings of the readers, which pleasantly mixes well with overall lighthearted tone of the volumes. One thing that should be noted is that people who do not know the series very well will not understand some of things going on in the various stories, as they seem to clearly be for fans of the series. The art of the books varies since the Official Casebooks are composed of different artists’ works. It is pretty interesting to see many styles of drawing in one book.

Overall: Many Ace Attorney fans will definitely enjoy the books, but for readers who do not know much about series may not be able to enjoy the Official Casebooks.

P.S. Sayuri almost missed his article today since he tried to wait for his parents to go to work, but fell asleep. Luckily, he woke up early enough to not be super late for his article today. FIX YOUR SLEEPING SCHEDULE ALREADY, SAYURI!

Phoenix Wright's Quirky Movie Trailer

Phoenix Wright has become quite popular recently. Along side the games in his own series, he's become a character with a quirky playstyle in Marvel vs Capcom 3 Ultimate and he's geared up to star in a crossover with Professor Layton. However that isn't enough for our Ace Attorney. He's also going to be the star of his own live action movie, directed by the legendary Takashi Miike. Slated for an early 2012 release in Japan "Gyakuten Saiban" is predicted to be a quirky cult classic.

Of course, most of you die-hard fans already knew this. What you might not have been aware of is the official website launch, and the two beautiful trailers come along with it. The movie is based on the first game in the series and while an American release hasn't been mentioned yet, a subbed version of the movie is almost guaranteed to be released in the States.

Be sure to check out one of the trailers below and pay a visit to the official site for more.
