Point Your Finger at This Layton vs. Phoenix Wright Trailer

i feel as though this could be the greatest game ever.

This has got to be one of the best ideas for video game ever. Two of the best third-party franchises rolled into one. I CAN'T WAIT!!

No further questions! The game will surrender to a localization team pending international release. Court adjourned!

Wow, I just watched the video. It looks great the music, the art style... That was beautiful

This looks amazing!

Agreed with @benjamines. This game will be amazing.

But it's still weird to see Phoenix and Maya so... alive.

That was just....wow! How can so much awesomeness be crammed into one 2:00 video? If this doesn't get localized I just might have to choke several Capcom and Level 5 employees >:3

YO CHECK OUT MY MEGA AWESOME RAP SKILLS, BRO

This game, it looks so bad
It almost makes me sad,
When I see Professor and Wright,
to-ta-lly outta sight
And I really really hope then,
it comes outta Ja-pan
And if it does, I ain't gonna sit,
because all I wanna do is

Can't wait for this but I don't really like how the characters look. Maya still looks allright, but Phoenix..man what the hell did they do to his face.

@1 You have no idea how good this game will be. Just because it contains two of your favorite game heroes doesnt automatically mean great gameplay and storytelling. It doesnt work for movies - who's to say it works well for games.

@Yasume: his face looks fine to me...? Phoenix Wright has always had a bit of an odd face, though, haha. you could be thinking it looks bad just because his face is really in motion — and 3D — as opposed to being set in the same old 2D animated sprites we've come to know and love :3

@Geonjaha: true, there's no guarantee this game will be everything we're hoping it'll be. however, it's bound to be chock-full of fanservice for both sides, i'd imagine. this is a day-one purchase for me when it hits _{and it had better hit or so help me i'll lead the riot myself} :3

@tbd: Yeah, that's probably it, but idk 1:25 just freaks me out xD Might need some time to get used to it when it comes out here. If it'll come out here (dammit Capcom, confirm it already!).

I refuse to view anything about this game until it's confirmed for a western release. I don't want to get worked up over nothing.

NO! WEIRD ANIMATION!!!

Something about Layton and Phoenix being in the same game feels... wrong. Just doesn't seem to click for me. Besides that, though, the game is looking good.

Level 5 really have nailed and is nailing the cell shaded style better than anyone else at this time

3D Mia... 3D Mia... 3D Mia... <3

I'm a fan of both series, so if this game comes out, I'll b gettin it.

Never played Ace Attorney, but have enjoyed Layton. Looks very interesting...

The music is enough to convince me to buy this game.

Looks like the aesthetics will be more Layton-style and the gameplay will be Phoenix-style....

I guess that would be the only plausible way one could do this.

I really loved the music for this, it was beautiful! This is an absolute pick-up when it comes out.

Never got into either series, will have to keep an eye on it.

It's basically two f the most popular 3rd party titles on the DS having a crossover. How can this possibly not succeed? I'm going to buy 15 copies anyway!

Looking good. Of course, I couldn't read any of the dialogue.

Ah looks awesome, can't wait!

do want......Do Want........DO WANT!!! Come on Capcom, you may have given up on us for Edgeworth 2 but you better not do the same with this!

Why do people keep calling Layton a 3rd party series? Anyway looks awesome. I've never played Layton, but the Ace Attorney games are awesome.

Come on! Outside Japan release, oh please. Pretty good at the language tho, but if this game has that famous riddling and pantering of Phoenix Wright games it would be a hassle.

I still remember when I first read the news about this game, I immediately called my friend who told the people in the room and I heard a "WOW" through the phone other friend I called just said "yeah, I know, I'm reading about it atm"

I love it, it looks amazing. This has to get localized!

@TheDarkness - Because Level-5 are a 3rd party developer. Though I do think (IMO) that the Professor Layton series will most likely stick with Nintendo - simply because that's what people expect.

That being said...Holy balls I can't wait for this game! One of the big reasons why I love Phoenix Wright and Layton is because the games require brainpower and deduction over a thirst for violence. They're like the videogame versions of Doctor Who!

@TheDarkness: Because, believe it or not, Professor Layton is a third-party series

im really looking forward to this

big fan of phoenix wright and layton, both of them in one game is the best thing they ever thought of!

I've never played any of those franchises, but judging from all the hype this is getting, I'm guessing they're good.

Eureka! Ohhhh it's so f amazing, i hope Prof. Laytons vs Phoenix Wright will come to Europe i love both series.

I might become a fan of one of these series, or of both. I'll have to keep an eye on this.

....Did anyone noticed that the plaintiff was in a sort of iron maiden...?

Anyway I'm still wondering how the game combines both the elements of Prof. Layton and Ace Attorneys? We saw a sample trial but that was pretty much it..

ive played the layton games.but what do you do on the capcom games how do they play out.is it all in a court room or?

Can't wait for this! It looks so awesome! It seems that they're making courts from Phoenix Wright and puzzles from Layton (at least there's part where he points his finger and I'm assuming that the text says Correct!) and putting them in one game. I want to prove Layton wrong in Court with Phoenix Wright when Layton can't solve a puzzle to defend himself xD

@daznsaz: There's more than just the court room. You have to explore different places, talk to people, find evidence and so on.

oh right dont sound to bad then^

While this doesn't answer many questions except for the art style it's still so promising to have interactions between all these great characters.

@40: Exactly, do we get two games for the price of one or we are seeing new elements?

BTW, i loved the "strong but misterious game" impression this trailer leaved on me.

Can't wait for this awesome game! Instant buy!

Nice trailer!
