So Phoenix Wright continues the trend of not releasing the first game in a story-heavy series in Europe (*cough*Xenosaga*cough*) but releasing the sequels instead? And Contact and Rocket Slime are skipped completely?

Um...Phoenix Wright has already been released in Europe.  It's the one with the delightfully plain white cover.

[KDR_11k]

Never seen that. Amazon says it's due for the 24. November.

[Aussie Ben PGC]

Very strange...I heard it came out late March...HOLD IT!

TAKE THAT!

Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney is already out here in the UK
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Phoenix-Wright-Ace-Attorney-Nintendo/dp/B000EOTWSI/ref=sr_11_1/202-0093084-1271801?ie=UTF8

It was released 31st of March 2006...

I guess they're taking all this time to translate it to German?

They've translated Baldur's Gate 2 and f'in Civilization quicker than this.

I really doubt the release list is complete... they never are from NOE. Games will sneak in... I'm hoping Pokemon Diamond/Pearl will sneak in somewhere early 2007. *crosses everything*
