Title: Very Interesting game coming to US
Post by: Avinash_Tyagi on February 05, 2005, 05:07:48 AM
From Gamespot:
In a stroke of near genius, or total insanity, Capcom announced that the latest entry in its courtroom battle series, tentatively titled Gyakuten Saiban, will be hitting US shores this summer. For those unfamiliar with the courtroom battle series, it began on the Game Boy Advance and met with enough popular acclaim to warrant two sequels and a DS conversion of the first game. While the DS game is based on the first entry in the GBA series, which appeared several years ago on the handheld system, Capcom's teams are working to ensure the DS game is more than just a port by adding DS-specific features and new game content, such as an all-new chapter.
The game's premise is straightforward and could be taken straight from just about any television show that focuses on lawyers. You'll play as accomplished defense lawyer Phoenix Wright, who faces off against "the man" to defend his clients. The game will break up into two basic styles of gameplay. First up is the investigation aspect, where you'll have to survey crime scenes, interview witnesses, and gather evidence that will be used in court. The next part is the meat and potatoes of the game, the court phase, wherein you'll present findings from the investigation to support your case. You'll listen to testimonies, examine witnesses, and separate lies from the truth so you can prove your client's innocence.

I'm glad that more devs are taking risks in what games to localize, but this sort of game really does have "Flop with U.S. public" all over it...

Hopefullly it will have a 19.99 price tag it worked for Katamari Damacy so it can work for this.
EDIT: The Hardcore crowd will gobble this one up.

I have a feeling it'll turn out completely crap, but i'm still interested in it and i'll check it out when it's released, it could be good. It reeks of another Capbomb though. Has anyone played the GBA version?

retailers will stock anything so i don't see why they don't localize more games anyway. they just want us to suffer.

I think this looks interesting, but a lot of casual gamers might be turned off by the anime art style.

Turned OFF by the anime style? I personally think that's a big turn ON...

According to the article, the GBA version was good enough to warrant a couple of sequels.
