Shiiiiiit, great, good news for the Ace Attorney trilogy as well.

Alex · Feb 1, 2012

I'll rebuy, it'll be fun to play it in a good resolution even if I just beat it a few months ago.

Sounds odd to have a contract like that with NoA only. (and other non-Japan regions)

Definitely double dipping on this, one of the best games of last year.

Maybe not at $10 on the iOS, though.

iOS games selling for $1, claim app store ruining game industry

Port of excellent game priced at a low $10, complain about price

How much is the GTA3 port again?

it was released in Japan iTunes all the way back in Dec 2010.

ksimm · Feb 1, 2012

Woohoo glad I held out on this one. I am more pro-handheld gaming with DS / PSP etc, but this type of game with no need for dpad/sticks is ideal for iDevices.

GTA3 was released when?

Firebrand · Feb 1, 2012

Hmm... maybe it's just the video, but watching the trailer the visuals seem squashed, like it's the wrong aspect ratio... text seems normal though.

October of 2001. What's your point?

Ridley327 · Feb 1, 2012

I don't normally post in iOS threads, but you guys should buy this fucking game without delay.

Skilletor · Feb 1, 2012

I own it on DS, but will buy again to play on the iPad screen.

Game is amazing and everybody should buy it.

stupei · Feb 1, 2012

I'm totally going to double dip because 1) Missile and 2) I lent my copy to a friend and she hasn't even started it yet, so I'm never going to get it back at this rate.

BUY THIS GAME, PEOPLE.

Glass Rebel · Feb 1, 2012

Been waiting for this, gonna pay and play again.

So it could've just been about the non-Japanese versions?

I mean part of their publishing contract with NoE.

That asking for $10 for a 1.5 year old game is not asking too much. More so when it retailed at $30.

andymcc · Feb 1, 2012

i've never played this before. i think now is the time.

Sky Chief · Feb 1, 2012

About fucking time

Especially for capcom. A better version of a game for 1/3 the price?

I disagree. Japanese companies need to learn how to price their iOS ports like everyone else.

No_Style · Feb 1, 2012

I am pleased by this news!

BGBW · Feb 1, 2012

I just completed this on my (3)DS. $10 will be £15 in the UK? Probably that price my mother spent buying it for as a present since that was her budget. Only have an Android and I prefer using my game system for games and conserving battery for phone calls on my phone so I'm happy with the version I got.

Nice for others to experience it especially as the DS version will probably be out of print soon.

abasm · Feb 1, 2012

I just finished the game a few months ago, so I'll probably jump on this when I feel like replaying it a few years from now. (It might be cheaper then, too.)

Firebrand · Feb 1, 2012

LiK said:

Ah, nice.

My personal GOTY of 2011, $10 for this is a steal.

Anilones · Feb 1, 2012

£6.99

Pietepiet · Feb 1, 2012

It surprises me every time that people can complain about paying $10 for a game of damn fine quality. It should not matter what system it's on, how long the game is or if it's 2D or 3D (cause this one happens a lot as well. 2D games are apparently valued less than 3D games). What you pay for is the quality of the game, and with Ghost Trick $10 is really, REALLY damn cheap.

I paid 40 euros for this and never regret it once, because I knew I was supporting amazing developers.

Emitan · Feb 1, 2012

Yesssssss. Finally gonna play Ghost Trick

As to why I never picked this up for DS when I'm a Nintendo fanboy? I dunno.

10/USD is a fair price for a title like this/ of this length with next to no replay value.

Truth.

There's no need to complain about iOS pricing.

We've never had it so good.

RurouniZel · Feb 1, 2012

Will double dip.

The Japanese iOS release made you pay after every two chapters and ended up costing roughly as much as the DS version, iirc.

toastyToast · Feb 1, 2012

Not available in Australia but it is in New Zealand? Boo

After all the good word of mouth I'm looking forward to checking this out.

chickdigger802 · Feb 1, 2012

How many ios ports of recent games are there?

Scribblenauts and sonic all star racing are the ones I can recall.

cloudyy · Feb 1, 2012

Why is it free for me? Not that I'm complaining but...

Lime · Feb 1, 2012

Not available in Denmark yet

Excellent news though. Already cancelled my 2 week standing order with thehut who was selling it for 15 GBP.

Fuu · Feb 1, 2012

IAP unlock for the chapters after 2.

Price is fine. Your mentality on iOS pricing is the issue.

Just realised my brain was working in reverse. £7 is a steal.

I really do hope Arksy will double dip 999 for the iOS too.

I don't think that's there call, but 999 is pretty damn reliant on the DS itself to tell its story. It really wouldn't be the same thing.

How will the final puzzle work though? 999 needs the DS.

Ubisoft has made it clear that their 3DS lineup will all move over to iOS, I believe. That Ghost Recon strategy game is supposed to be a really good spiritual successor to X-Com and it's on iOS now.

lineup... shadow wars was good... but just imagining an ios port of splinter cell 3 got me shivers. There aren't enough buttons on a controller for that game >.>"

The 3DS Shadow Wars game is way more Advance Wars than anything even resembling X-Com in any way.

Evlar · Feb 1, 2012

Will certainly double dip. I'm hopeful this means further support for the series! We need more Ghost Trick.

idk, the game wraps the story up pretty tightly.

I'd love to see this rotoscope style for future AA titles.
