This week's Famitsu is a must for Ace Attorney fans. The magazine has looks at two Ace Attorney games: Ace Attorney 5 and Professor Layton vs Ace Attorney.

For Ace Attorney 5, the magazine confirms the sequel's platform as 3DS and reveals that Phoenix Wright is the main character. Wright has a new partner, a mysterious girl in yellow clothing. This girl will be a central figure in the game.

Layton vs Ace Attorney got a major ad on the magazine's back cover. The ad itself is a puzzle showing the characters "6211." Tales Source, a site that gets the magazine in advance, says that there are some clues which suggest that this number is meant to be read flipped around, showing 1129, or perhaps a November 29 release date.

Officially, Famitsu lists Ace Attorney 5 as date TBA and Professor Layton vs Ace Attorney with a 2012 time frame.

I'll post here and let my other thread dies!

Famitsu wasn't kidding when they said it was "amazing". This is probably the best news Capcom could give now (as megaman is promised for december)

I can only say one thing: Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessss!!!!!!

YAYYYY!!!! Very good news! Basically cements a 3DS purchase!

What!? No iOS version? That's preposterous.

Yessssss!!!!!, I can not wait. The Phoenix has risen from the ashes.

I'd do an "Objection!" or "Hold It!" joke, but this is great news.

I need confirmation on this theme. Being on the edge in a case just won't be the same without it I tell yah!

Edit: I play this when someone corners me in an argument on gamrconnect. It helps me spin my way out of it with convincing nonsense Pheonix Wright style :D

Haha, yeah, that's a great theme and also a great tactic!

Nothing beats the rush of getting out of it to this

Take That!

I think i'll start playing this series
