The Great Ace Attorney, which will take the series into a new era and no doubt expand upon its various case-solving mechanics, is creeping closer to its release on 3DS in Japan. Gamers in the West can do little but look on in envy, unfortunately, and the special edition bundles will do little to ease our suffering.
Three different special editions for the game have been unveiled. The cheapest is 7300 Yen (just over $60), is called the "Binding edition" and comes with a collection of illustration cards and a soundtrack CD. The e-Capcom limited edition comes with two animal plushies, six postcards with a frame, "a short story by Iris Watson in magazine-style, a sticker in the form of Holmes' card, Ryunosuke Naruhodo's pin and a cool little briefcase in which it can all be stored; that'll set gamers back 9300 Yen, about $78.
The final pack comes with all of those goodies, which you can see below - it's 10800 Yen, about $90.
These are all pricey extras, but when there are plushies and miniature briefcases involved they're hard to resist.

man, I doubt the west will even get a physical release of this game. This just makes me so jealous.
This edition looks great, but I'm still upset that Japan not only got Dual Destinies physical, but got a fantastic Phoenix Wright statue with it too.
Those bunnys look so cute!
So happy I preordered the most expensive set. Can't wait!
I really hope this game releases in the west. I doubt we'll get this special edition, but ooh boy does it look nice.
and its sold out everywhere!!!! I cant find the special edition to preorder anywhere.
Games like this and ace attorney investigations 2 may not even come here... That's disturbing. Such quality games, but not shoot em ups or big budget so they get easily dismissed. Too bad, love this game series.
I see that a number of people have an "objection!" to this being a Japan only release game at the moment. Give it time though, remember that other games (such as Wright Vs Layton) took a long time to come out here as well. I doubt that the collectable Briefcase will also make it over though.
