hope it's advertised in the US as a reconstruction era ace attorney

Watch Capcom USA making the game take place during the Civil War

 

[Omikaru]

Count me among all the people eagerly awaiting Capcom USA's localisation of this.

 

[demidar]

wut

 

[Byronic Hero]

Weird. But it's an Ace Attorney game, so I WILL be buying it. Come on instant localization news.

 

[L~A]

Scans aren't allowed there but.... well, they're in the wild now.

 

[Refyref]

Hmm, if that scan's real, then the main character looks like a young mix of Phoenix and Apollo.

Edit:

Naruhodou Ryuunosuke? I guess it really is supposed to be Meiji-Wright.

So it's Phoenix's ancestor? Cool.

 

[The Bankslammer]

"naruhodou ryuunosuke" heh

Ah, so the descendant route it is. Can't wait to see how they depict the ancestors of the various main characters.

I was thinking they would append -nosuke to his name.

 

[Currygan]

saw it, looking good, very anime

 

[RionaaM]

New Ace Attorney? That's fine with me, there's no such thing as "too many AA games" in my opinion.

 

[Zalman]

Yeah, this game is not getting localized. They don't even have an iconic main character since Phoenix isn't here.

 

[spiritfox]

I like his design.

 

[Qurupeke]

Sounds weird but exciting. I really doubt this is getting localized though...

 

[vareon]

Isn't that a Japanese police uniform? I saw it in Rurouni Kenshin so it must be true.

 

[BassForever]

Will buy day one when its released so excited!

 

[Brawly Likes to Brawl]

Wow, Meiji era Phoenix looks awesome.

 

[Asbear]

Game's probably going to be fantastic, but after PLvsPWAA which had the same "theme" sort of, I'm disappointed he didn't go in another 'direction' than just the same idea, different time-period.

 

[RionaaM]

So no Phoenix??? How are they going to pull this off?

AAI didn't feature Phoenix at all and it still managed to be good. They didn't even mention him by name once, only did so in a few (not so) subtle references. I trust that this new game is going to be good too.

 

[demidar]

Wow, Meiji era Phoenix looks awesome.

He got a sword too. Don't know why, maybe prosecutors were much more violent and savage back then

 

[Axass]

A change of setting and characters is exciting, don't fuck up with the localization Capcom!

 

[Not75Drops]

Court Records is saying that the MC is Phioenix's forefather, has a similar sense of justice and is danger prone.

 

[thetrin]

Huh, I've got the new Famitsu in front of me and I'm not seeing it listed in the game index. What page is this info?

 

[FluxWaveZ]

A change of setting and characters is exciting, don't fuck up with the localization Capcom!

Realistically, we should hope there is one at all.

 

[jonno394]

Wow, Meiji era Phoenix looks awesome.

I second this, just viewed the scan online. Love the character design.

 

[Jintor]

He got a sword too. Don't know why, maybe prosecutors were much more violent and savage back then

 

[Liha]

Takes place in Meiji era Japan.

 

[TangorFopper]

Yes please!!!

 

[butman]

will we be seeing these guys? (In real human form) i am hoping so

This!

Miles, Phoenix and Maya Meiji ancestors.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

He got a sword too. Don't know why, maybe prosecutors were much more violent and savage back then

I'm sure Wright would have liked a sword to counter Franziska's whip.

 

[Axass]

Realistically, we should hope there is one at all.

That's what I mean, lol.

Also, the guy from the scan reminds me of him:

 

[Tom_Cody]

Will buy.

I. Can't. Wait.

Oh, and first exclusive scan of the game!

I love this.

 

[Byronic Hero]

Yeah, this game is not getting localized. They don't even have an iconic main character since Phoenix isn't here.

All that has to be done is name him "_______ Wright" people will instantly make the connection. Plus, we got Pokemon Conquest and AA5 sold really well. If we don't get this game, I'll be surprised.

 

[ZealousD]

I have a strong feeling that even if it comes to the West, Capcom will find a way to fuck it up.

 

[Kouriozan]

Hey, I like how the MC looks like.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I still believe that they are going to bring the origin of Fey Clan into this new game.

 

[RiggyRob]

Can anyone PM me a link to the scans, or is that a GAF no-no?

Edit: Interesting, the design's a little bland (nice and formal in all black though) but the

Spoiler

sword could make for some unique animations a la Blackquill

 

[Caj814]

I have a strong feeling that even if it comes to the West, Capcom will find a way to fuck it up.

The biggest fuck up would be not bringing it at all.

 

[Link1110]

A historic Ace Attorney was something I never knew I wanted, but I now greatly desire it.

5-2 might give us an idea of how that might play out.

Well, we had one with witch trials so this isn't TOO far from that.

 

[spiritfox]

I still believe that they are going to bring the origin of Fey Clan into this new game.

Maybe his assistant is Ami Fey, the founder.

 

[demidar]

He doesn't have a sword though, he just... sends cutting winds using only his fingers.

Okay that's pretty dangerous.

 

[daydream]

Fantastic news! I need as much Ace Attorney in my life as possible.

 

[Famassu]

Heh, this is what I said a little over 2 months ago

So, I see three possibilities

1) It's another Ace Attorney game that does something completely new like Ace Attorney Investigations. Maybe a kind of mix between Ghost Trick and Ace Attorney in a way that it's somewhat less about the trials & investigation and more about the action, drama & other kinds of events that can happen during the trials and investigations (i.e. someone is at a trial to shoot one of the key witnesses and you have to prevent that by manipulating the people & environments not to lose your case). I'm being completely hypothetical here just to showcase how big of a chance I mean with this possibility-suggestion

2) It's kind of like a mainline entry, but they are finally brining the changes that the whole "dark age of the law" stuff in AJ & DD has been preminising, so some big changes to how the trial part of the game advances

3) It's kind of like a mainline entry, but maybe Takumi will tackle a game that changes the setting completely (i.e. the game is set in the 18th century with all new characters, somewhat different trial & investigation systems etc.)

 

[Glass Rebel]

Won't get excited until I see an announcement for Europe but the main char's design looks cool albeit a bit simple. Real test will be the female partner though.

 

[TheBera]

Maybe his assistant is Ami Fey, the founder.

Watch this being true, I'm pretty sure it's gonna happen!

 

[Glass Rebel]

Heh, this is what I said a little over 2 months ago

90% likely right.

Main dude doesn't look like Phoenix Wright.

It's drawn by the same guy who did Phoenix' artwork in PLvsPWAA, and IMO it definitely shows and he does have a resemblance to Phoenix Wright as he looked in PLvsPWAA.

I wonder what his name would be in english though?
