Topic: Professor Layton and the New World of Steam

@jump That would be classic Layton behaviour to be fair

So curious what the new Layting game be like. That deca police will be definitely on my radar. Fantasy life... maybe...

@jump
Professor Layton and the Abandoned Parental Responsibility?

Honestly, outside of the club bit, I could see this happening. XD

Well, I've never played a Layton game before, but the announcement of a new game, and my love for the Ace Attorney series has definitely piqued my interest. So, does anybody here have any suggestions as to where I should start? I've heard that Curious Village is a good point to start for newcomers, but which platform is it recommended that I play it on? I have access to both a DS and an iOS phone, as well as emulators if it comes to it.

@StarPoint It's best to play them in order, each game improves upon the last so it would be hard going back to earlier games when QOL features you are use to are then removed.

DS is best, dual screens feel natural for it.

@jump Ok thanks. I've heard that the mobile port actually has some better things going for it since it's in HD and adds some cutscenes, but to me, that's not a huge deal. I'll probably wait to make a move until after Level 5's presentation on Thursday, just in case they somehow decide to port the first few games to modern platforms. Doesn't seem all too likely given their track record, but I can hold out a few more days to wait and find out.

But if they end up not doing that, I might get the mobile port. I would like to try it out on the DS but my DS Lite gets very uncomfortable to hold after I use it for like 20 minutes.
