News of the century: (http://court-records.net/)

That's right, folks. I did say "Takumi" and "new Gyakuten game" in the same sentence.

Some days ago, it was announced that Level-5, studio responsible for the Professor Layton, Dark Cloud and White Knight Chronicles series (and Dragon Quest VIII and IX), was collaborating with Capcom on a mystery project. Now, because of the ambiguity of the announcement, it went almost unnoticed. But not anymore.

Jiro Ishii, Level-5 staffer and creator of "428", the Japan-exclusive Wii visual novel (which, BTW, got a 40/40 score from Famitsu), is pretty active on Twitter. So much, that he was recently Tweet-chatting with Jin Fujisawa, director of Dragon Quest IX, and suddenly, one of Mr. Ishii's tweets contained the following statement:

Huh? Ah, "Gyakuten ??". I’m working on it with Takumi-san.

And if you read "Gyakuten" and "Takumi-san", you're obviously reading about Shu Takumi, creator of the Ace Attorney series.

What does this mean for us, exactly? Well, one thing's for sure: Mr. Takumi is working on a new game with the word "Gyakuten" on its title. Of which we'll probably hear more soon.

People, feel free to hype the fuck up. And speculate, of course.

If it's gonna be 3DS... and by Level 5... and it incorporates the investigation elements from the Edgeworth games...
:aaa:

So for those of us who don't recognize any of the names besides "Gyakuten/Ace Attorney"... what does this mean exactly?

It is undeniable proof there is in fact a loving and caring God.

Shu Takumi is the creator of Ace Attorney, who has been working on Ghost Trick since Apollo Justice.
Jiro Isshi is some dude who's worked on some visual novels.
Level 5 is the studio behind Inazuma Eleven, Dragon Quest VIII and IX, Professor Layton, and other.

So plenty to get excited about, really.

Impossible. It doesn't have the words "Camelot" "developing" "breath of fire" "sequel" in it.

They said they want to, dammit!!

How would Camelot be doing that when they've been busy with Golden Sun Dark Dawn?

It never occured to me till just now how much of an epic trollface that Edgeworth pose is.

...besides, we already know about Investigations 2.
