    That, Trials and Tribulations was also released Stateside in 2007.

    And anyone that thinks that T&T isn't a spectacular sendoff to the Phoenix Wright arc is a silly goose.

    The villain is an evil magic storyteller that captures characters from different universes, and puts them in new situations together. The villain is a fan fiction author.

    Either that, or he's Drosselmeyer from Princess Tutu.

    Look, I'll give you Apollo Justice, but if you didn't like Ace Attorney Investigations, you're just plain wrong.

    You really think it was the same quality as the original trilogy? For that matter, you think it's in the same league as Ghost Trick? GS is like Yakuza, constantly scrapping the bottom of the barrel for a new gimmick or painfully attempting to continue its already complete storyline. I can forgive Yakuza though, since the story is only one minor element of the game*. GS fails or succeeds based solely on the strength of its story. I didn't really like the Layton game I played, and the scenario work isn't close near the quality of GS. Do GS fans really want to run around solving brain twisters? Do Layton fans really want to go through what a huge script that just stops short of a full blown visual novel?

    When a product is developed SOLELY because they think that they can sell it to consumers regardless of its quality, it should raise a red flag. It just makes me a bit sad that this happening GS, since I love the series so much and it's disappointing that after making a great original game, Takumi Shu now is returning to the franchise YET AGAIN instead of writing an original scenario. At this rate, his next game is going to be a Ghost Trick X GS crossover :(

    **Ok, the real reason I forgive Yakuza is that Kenzan was brilliant (perhaps the best PS3 game?) and Yakuza 3 was the first game in the series I played. Perhaps the real question is whether the crossover will end up hurting the design or scenario and help it by liberating from the basic design and scenario of their respective games. Color me cynical, but I'm going to wait a few weeks after the game is released and there are a mountain of reviews before I even consider touching it.

    This is true.

    I try not to think of AJ as being a continuation of Phoenix at all, because he's OBVIOUSLY shoe-horned in there to give AJ some connection to the previous games for the sake of ensuring $$$ return and security.

    However Phoenix was the best character in Apollo Justice. I liked him better in that game than in the previous games. If AJ stood on its own, I'm not sure if the game would have been interesting enough.

    Anyway, even if AJ and AAI weren't as great as the first three games, they were still good. I'm not concerned about this crossover. They wouldn't risk ruining Layton, in any case.

    Aye.

    There's already at least one cart being sold that gets past its protections. Of course it doesn't need to enable region free because it already is.

    And 3DS will be even easier due to the SD card (which is what enabled the Wii to be hacked). I know the DSi has an SD slot too but it wasn't designed to do much with it, since the original DS didn't have one.

    The DSiXL is not the wow spinny 3D future of portable gaming for the next 5 years though.

    Region-locking quickly became a major pain in the neck for the Wii (still waiting for Excitebots and Trauma Team...), and would have been disastrous for the enthusiast DS owner (the £30 vs $30 pricepoint still rankles, and Ouendan 1&2 remain my most-played DS games). The motivation to mod the DS to be region-free is certainly there, but sadly I think it more likely that we'll get this off the back whatever the preferred piracy method for the 3DS becomes.

    It all hinges on whether save games are still on individual carts, or stored on the SD card.

    EDIT: I wonder how they're going to weave justice and laws and that shit into the puzzles? Math and imagery and whatnot're one thing, but I can't think of too many puzzles (none, in fact) that're oriented around judicial stuff. I hope it doesn't descend into slathering old universal puzzles with a court-colored layer of paint.

    Yeah, pretty much. I had to softmod my Wii to be able to use GeckoOS to play NTSC discs, and it looks like we'll need to wait and see what hacking method there is for 3DS as well.

    It's really rather annoying. That said, there is a certain ironic amusement to be found in how Nintendo's locks stimulate and multiply piracy in whole regions of the world instead of deterring it.

    Nah, they will probably divide it into Layton doing investigation parts and Phoenix defending someone in court.
    The first case just has to be Phoenix freeing Layton from some trumped-up charges.

    It will only play on a 3DS. If it were going to play on a DS Lite, it would be called a DS game, not a 3DS game.

    I don't think anything in there relies purely upon color perception, or if colors are important somehow they are different enough to not be problematic.
