[Gintoki]

Fuck yea! Its probably gonna be on the 3DS?

 

[MechaX]

Capcom, if you're going to go Apollo or Phoenix, just go all the way with either. Don't do some Dante/Nero shit where the old guard is clearly outshining the new guard, but yet the new guard never gets breathing room to develop itself.

Or maybe they'll throw us all off and do a Mia Fey prequel.

 

[ULTROS!]

DAY ONE ON AA5.

 

[secretanchitman]

bought aa1 for ios, played 2-4 on my 3DS - loved every one of them. will rebuy aa1-3 HD for ios. also, aa5? for real? FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!

 

[SlickVic]

Always been tempted to pick up the first Phoenix Wright on iOS, but held off hoping for some sale. Already have these on DS, but I don't mind double dipping to have them all on iOS now.

Can't wait to hear more about AA5, and here's hoping Capcom brings this one over to the US.

 

[Keyouta]

AA5! I've waited too long!

I'm thinking 3DS + Vita, but there's a chance it may be exclusive to 3DS.

 

[WorstUsernameEver]

Whoa! Japan time is back for an awesome announcement!

VERY curious to see how they tackles the

juror system

since it kind of messes up the formula. Of course if it's before Apollo, that wouldn't be a problem.

Well, couldn't they easily come up with something like

Spoiler

the jury being used only for the most important cases because the system is still being introduced

?

And I honestly don't know whether it would be better or worse to put it before Apollo.. I didn't like its story at all, but it wasn't really the character's fault, and I would feel a bit cheated if all that story arc was shoved away when it obviously was meant to continue.

 

[Dog Problems]

Not getting excited until localisation is confirmed. Fool me once, shame on Capcom. Fool me - you can't get fooled again.

Yeah, that's how I'm feeling. I'll care once it becomes localized. The iOS versions, on the other hand, will more than likely show up in English so I'll double dip on those. Also, they need to get on the ball about putting Ghost Trick on iOS like they said they were going to do.

 

[jooey]

Not getting excited until localisation is confirmed.

Well if it's not on a handheld that's oversaturated/sunsetting then we should be fine, don't you think?

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

I will totally re-buy AA1-3 for the iPad, when and if I get it.

 

[Nappuccino]

Welp.

I finally have a reason to get an Iphone.

 

[GSR]

Anyways, news reporting out of the way,

 

[IntelliHeath]

As a note it will be on iOS in general, not just the iPhone.

That's good because I am considering to pick up iPad in future, but will purchase those HD if they are coming to U.S.

FINALLY, AA5

 

[EmCeeGramr]

someone at court-records is probably putting down the gun right now

 

[electroplankton]

omg please the platform omg

 

[upandaway]

About fucking time geez. I'm fine with either protag because I'm cool like that.

Still not forgiving them for you know what.

 

[cvxfreak]

Definitely grabbing the HD app. I just remembered that I bought the Japanese GS1 app back in 2009, so I'm eligible to upgrade onto the HD one.

 

[Black Republican]

praise allah!

 

[Fantastical]

Am I dead? I think I'm dead.

<3 Ace Attorney. So glad 1/2/3 are coming to iOS too. About time. Trials and Tribulations is just fantastic.

 

[def sim]

Yay! I've been wanting all of them on iPhone for a while. 1-3 is good for now.

 

[Mpl90]

I don't think 3DS can be excluded for AA5, also due to the crossover with Professor Layton...
Capcom, announce the platform and make us joy.

 

[Kisaya]

Exactly what I was thinking as well!!hahaha

Oh god I have waited so long for this. I'm still recovering from my meltdown DX

 

[Zerokku]

My excitement over the announcement is tempered by my distrust of capcom actually localizing it

 

[chickdigger802]

Actually more curious about the updated ios game.

I assume it will use some assets that were in the ace attorney movie app that recently came out?

http://itunes.apple.com/jp/app//id494494527?l=ja&ls=1&mt=8

 

[electroplankton]

Are there news incoming?

 

[StunandStab]

FUCK YES AA5! WHATEVER PLATFORM IT'S ON, I WILL MAKE SURE I HAVE THAT PLATFORM

I'm so glad I didn't go to sleep earlier, this is awesome!

 

[Crumpet Trumpet]

OHH MY GAWWWDDD.

(i would buy an ios device for ace attorney 5. i have no shame.)

 

[Rarutos]

Yay, but... I don't want to get excited until I hear about an English release.

 

[BiggNife]

Danganronpa inspired system, making it the closest the west will ever get to playing that game (jk this game won't be localized either)

FUCK STOP REMINDING ME HOW MUCH I WANT TO PLAY DANGAN RONPA

But yes AA5 is good, I just hope it comes out here

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Oh wow. No silhouette yet means we don't know if it's a return for Nick or Apollo.

Bad box art Mega Man, dude

 

[ACESmkII]

Whoa...

Just when I thought the series was finished.

 

[StunandStab]

Fuck it I'll learn Japanese to play this game if it doesn't come here. I'm just glad the game is being made.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

GS5 starring Edgeworth and all those memorable AAI characters like

 

[Shadowlink]

Awesome! I wonder if they'll continue with Phoenix Wright or Apollo.

 

[Instro]

I don't think 3DS can be excluded for AA5, also due to the crossover with Professor Layton...

My first thought would be 3DS only, but unknown platform is kind of odd though. AA5 on Vita is a bit odd unless its either new characters or Vita is getting those HD games as well. There's also a possibility of them all being released on the WiiU as DD for the Pad. Hell I guess ios is a viable platform as well, but I imagine that wouldn't be till further down the line for pricing reasons.

 

[iavi]

Awesome! I wonder if they'll continue with Phoenix Wright or Apollo.

I sure as hell hope it's Apollo.

Spoiler

Those locks...

 

[Hours Left]

Just a side note, Capcom is still considering localizing Ace Attorney Investigations 2 in the west. It was the first question they were asked during a live stream chat last week and they confirmed that it's still a possibility.

I would buy a Vita just so I could have Ace Attorney trophies

 

[InfiniteNine]

Aww, I was hoping they were using the original artwork. Hype for HD died.

 

[chickdigger802]

it does look like the art in the books... how else would you HDfy sprites?

 

[Crumpet Trumpet]

I'm so ready for Apollo Justice 2. Haters to the left.

[InfiniteNine]

No it doesn't. The lines are thinker and the coloring is different so it just looks like they traced the old sprites in photoshop.

Also they were all originally hand drawn and have those assets readily available. They've used it for some of the japanese promos.

Badly compressed image but it gets the idea across:

 

[Sintoid]

This is the final test to see if really Capcom hates Vita and want to kill it ^_^'

 

[WorstUsernameEver]

Wait, I'm pretty sure those are NOT screenshots from the HD versions? Or have I misinterpreted the post?

 

[Kisaya]

Awesome! I wonder if they'll continue with Phoenix Wright or Apollo.

They probably won't show Phoenix I remember they saying that Phoenix's story ended in AA4, and I think they didn't even want to include him in AA4

I really want to see Edgeworth or Maya though...

 

[Box of Bunnies]

Just a side note, Capcom is still considering localizing Ace Attorney Investigations 2 in the west. It was the first question they were asked during a live stream chat last week and they confirmed that it's still a possibility.

"We're still considering it" is basically an easy way of not doing anything while keeping the fans off their back.

 

[Hours Left]

They need to dedicate a SMALL amount of game time of AA5 to give Phoenix a little bit of redemption. They way it was left in AA4 was just lame.

But after that, Apollo (if he's the star) really needs to get the spotlight. Let him build relationships on his own merit and explore his background more.

 

[Bladenic]

That's somewhat reassuring about AAI2, though the DS is close to death here, especially with the 3DS out. So the longer they wait, the less likely it will be.

They better. AAI2 not being localized was the worse news of my life Okay not really, but I was depressed for a really long time
