Yup, the Ace Attorney is back in action this September.

HOLD IT! CAPCOM® ANNOUNCES PHOENIX WRIGHT™: ACE ATTORNEY™ TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS FOR NINTENDO DS™

The Next Chapter of Legal Drama to Begin in North America this Fall

SAN MATEO, Calif — April 13, 2007 — Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced Phoenix Wright™: Ace Attorney™ Trials and Tribulations for Nintendo DS™. The third installment in the popular courtroom battle series from Japan features the completion of Phoenix Wright’s story, as players explore both the past and present of the idiosyncratic lawyer. Capcom plans to release Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trials and Tribulations in North America in September 2007.

“Ace Attorney has developed an avid, devoted fan base in both Japan and North America," said Jack Symon, director, brand marketing, Capcom Entertainment. “Trials and Tribulations is being brought to North America due to the strong demand from fans for another epic courtroom battle."

In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trials and Tribulations players star as a defense attorney, who must prove a seemingly guilty client’s innocence no matter how dire the circumstances may seem. Phoenix will face the toughest prosecutor yet as the mysterious hard-boiled “Godot" will try to take him down at any cost. The complete story of Phoenix Wright comes together as truths are revealed in twisting storylines and intriguing gameplay. Players must collect evidence, survey crime scenes, weed through inconsistent testimonies, and overcome corrupt agendas to ensure that justice prevails. With the return of the popular “pysche-lock" interrogation tool from the previous title, Phoenix Wright™: Ace Attorney™ Justice for All, players will have to overcome even more intense courtroom standoffs in order to close the case.

Yes!

Though I'm not sure that title is long enough.

edit: a (somewhat cheezy) trailer is up at gametrailers!

Who would have thought that a game that Capcom didn't even bother releasing enough copies at first would become so popular?

Like I mentioned in another post, this bodes well for the release of Phoenix Wright 4 in the US. In fact, don't be surprised if the game is set to be released in Spring or Summer 2008.

I FREAKIN' LOVE YOU, CAPCOM!

I wonder what a Wii version of Phoenix Wright would be like?

CericApril 13, 2007

If it goes the way the series has been going since the last chapter in the first game count me out.

Bill AurionApril 13, 2007

Considering the fourth game got the highest Famitsu has ever rated a Phoenix Wright game, I personally am not worried a bit...

nickmitchApril 13, 2007

OOOOHHHH YES!!!
I'm almost done with the second game. I got it on the first and have been playing it all the time since school let out for break. Can't wait for this one.

Recycled sprites all over the place. Not only that, they will be highly enlarged, low res and very, VERY pixelated.

I've played enough of the Capcom fighters to know that. Trust me.

planetidiotApril 14, 2007

Geez, I still haven't finished the first one yet. Am I the only one who missed the second one entirely?

Capcom's promised fully re-done HD sprites for their XBox 360 Street Fighter... you think they could be turning a corner here? ... nah.

There megaman remakes has good graphics

using street fighter for a example is pretty stupid, since fans are very anal about "arcade perfect ports", which leads to capcom being lazy

Woot! I guess they were just waiting for the same day GS4 came out in Japan for the announcement. For some reason. I guess.

Well, the PW games are already guilty of re-using character sprites and backgrounds, so don't be surprises if PW Wii borrows some of the sprites and art from the latest PW game.

You talk as if a Wii version is in the works... =\
