Phoenix Wright vs Professor Layton

By Saiyajin Mui. 20/10/10, 02:51 am

I'm so looking forward to this.

Appears there will be a Phoenix Wright/Professor Layton crossover coming for the 3DS.

Takumi Shuu (The mind behind the Ace Attorney games) will be working on the game and its theme will be puzzles that are full of contradictions. Perfect for such a crossover.

There will be an in-game trial where Phoenix must defend his client who has been accused of being a witch.

Enclosed below are pictures.

What do you folks think?

I think this is possibly going to be the best game ever made. It looks like something that any sane person would be head over heels for.
I can't find much about the actual game play, though. sad

O-oh my god. ;A;

It's... the... the best thing ever.

So keen. ;w;

...Also thank goodness there's going to be another Ace Attorney game with Phoenix in it. 8D (Whilst he's still a attorney, I mean.)

Looking at Luke's clothes, you can tell it plays before 'Professor Layton and the Curious Village'. I wonder where it plays in Mr. Wright's time frame?

I tweeted about this earlier, but there is no way this will not be awesome.

By **Admin**. 20/10/10, 04:14 am

Well. It's obviously not before the first, or between the second and first.

So it's probably between the second and third games, or between the third game and the events explained in Apollo Justice. 8Db

True, you're probably right, thanks! ^__^

Level 5 x Capcom = OTP.
Tumblr has been going ABSOLUTELY CRAZY with this news. I can't WAIT.

AHAHAH THAT LAST PICTURE. IT'S TOTALLY SOMETHING PHOENIX WOULD DO. 8DDDb
(ps are you sure that's Godot?)

And my god I think I died from the awesome trailer. I love the music! <3

Who else thinks that Maya and Luke seem like they would get on really well together?

By Caddyl. 20/10/10, 11:35 am

MAYA AND LUKE ARE GOING TO BE AWESOME FRIENDS ;A;
I can't wait to see them working together!!

Gawd, the brilliant, gentlemanly mind of Professor Layton, and then I-can-pull-logic-from-nowhere mind of Phoenix Wright...

I need this game NOW you guys.

I love this. I really do. That guy's clapping is - priceless. And I couldn't agree more, with the whole following to the ends of the earth. The guy(s?) who decided to couple Phoenix Wright with Professor Layton should get a Nobel Awesome prize.

Hm.

^Noooooooo! They MUST make it come out in English, too! T____T

We just have to show our support and MAKE Capcom translate it to English!

Escapist Article wrote:: It seems reasonable to assume that Capcom is worried about how much appeal the game will actually have in the West, an assumption bolstered by Gonzalez' comments that Capcom might release the game outside of Japan if fans showed enough support. A better idea of the size of the audience for the crossover might assuage some of Capcom's apparent fears over releasing the game in the West.

Petition anyone?

Unless this is the usual company banter that if the yells are loud enough we'll do it, just to not listen to us thing.

I'm willing to give it a shot. I'm sure Capcom and Level-5 are more reasonable companies to listen to petitions, unlike OTHER companies.

I'm looking at YOU Namco-Bandai.

I'd first much rather they got around to releasing Layton 4 here. Seems silly to me that they are releasing it after the movie, when the movie is set directly after it
