To celebrate Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney's arrival in the far west, Nintendo of America is holding a sweepstakes to give away copies of the game to fourteen lucky winners who can point convincingly and with a certain judge-pleasing style. To enter, take a photo of yourself or someone else doing either the "Correct!" or "OBJECTION!" pose and post it to Twitter using the #LaytonVsWright and #SweepsEntry hashtags:
504659648650412032
504659860919971841
Important details from the above photographed fine print are that the contest is open to residents of the U.S. and Canada (excluding Québec) age thirteen and up, and that the contest ends today, 28th August, at 5 pm Pacific time / 8pm Eastern (so hurry).
Are you planning on entering the sweepstakes or did you already budget for the game? Is this the excuse you've been looking for to take that themed selfie you'd otherwise have a hard time explaining to family and friends? Not sure you can find an appropriate hat in time? Let us know in the comments!

I've been waiting four years for this game, and it finally comes out tomorrow anyway. I rather just buy it at this point, as I paid-off my pre-order a long time ago and this sweepstake came too little too late.
OBJECTION!!!! I lack a 3DS to enter this and it is unfair.
Nintendo of America is offering something?
Also, poor Quebec, they are not loved. lol
Only in the US and Canada...
OBJECTION!!
Can i just give 'em the finger instead?
@ikki5 "Not open to residents of Québec" has been the rule ever since I can remember, and it's apparently because of how lotteries and contests are administered within La Belle Provence: http://www.savealoonie.com/articles/but-im-a-canadian-too-why-quebecers-are-excluded-from-contests/
@eviLaTtenDant Please report back here with your results if you do.
Nooo my copy is out for delivery in a few hours. TWO Laytons would be way too much
Sometimes I wish I had a Twitter account.
Usually, I'm glad I don't.
This is one of the former times.
WHAAAAT??? Not Québec?!! Why does it always happen to meeeee........ For god sake why? Tabarnak!
No twitter account, so I guess I'm getting the game the old fashion way. All for the best, I don't think I'll be lucky enough to win.
Not Mexico? Come on NOA
Funny, I actually have the perfect photo for this already on my phone... But I don't use twitter and it's too much work to do so just for a contest I have little chance in winning.
I'd enter this if it wasn't for the fact that I only have a personal account and people would think I'm insane, lol. I'm tempted though..
I don't use Twitter so count me out of this contest
I'm no eligible to enter but I found the bit in the terms saying "Canadian winners must answer skills question" confusing. Looking up it seems they mean a 'Skill testing question' which is (surprise, surprise) a Canadian thing.
HA! I'll do it!
Oh wait, I don't have a twitter account... dangit!
Wow... Something American exclusive for once by Nintendo... It must be the second coming of Jesus Christ.
Guess it's time to finally make a Twitter account.
Dang it all...
No. I refuse to make a Twitter account. Just give out the game via Club Nintendo! Do a sweepstakes via that way!
Wish me luck guys!
wish i had time to do this but life always gets in the way:(
Yes! I just posted mine at the last minute! Now all I have to do is wait...
Are you serious?! I hear about this news eight minutes after it ends! Gah!
Wait! There were only 6 entries which means (correct me if I'm wrong) everybody wins!
@epicdude12302 ...There were only six entries? Seriously? O_O
It looks like there were a few more than 20 entries. Since they're offering 14, odds are definitely good.
Oh no! I posted my pic a day late! Major Objection!!!
I take that back, tweets didn't load properly yesterday. There were about 80 valid entries, not counting late submissions since those probably won't count. Odds have dropped to 1 in 5 or 6.
