@ThomasBW84 I have a question related to the 'switching regions' one. If I've bought games on more than one region's eShop, will all the stuff I've bought remain on my downloads list, or will only the stuff that I bought in my NNID's region stay on my list? Because if it's the latter, I'm screwed. Like half my stuff was bought in NZD, then I realised that the UK shop was way cheaper and bought the other half of my stuff on that one.
Interesting how both Ace Attorney and Layton have had recent releases, both will not have another official release for the foreseeable future (assuming Layton 7 is a while away), and both are starring in PL vs AA very soon.
Yeah, it's MUCH worse than the other AA games. There's actually one line from Blackquill just after he first appears that makes absolutely no sense, the grammar and typos are so bad.
Even the GK2 fan translation isn't this bad. DURING THE BETATESTING STAGE.
@Sheikah_stone1 That's the WiiWare versions. They're still perfectly playable, but the DS versions are far superior as the games look horrid blown up on a TV screen. Still worth getting if you can't find the DS versions for cheaper than the cost of 1000 points.
The entire 8th paragraph leads me to believe that the reviewer never took his finger off the 'run' trigger. The whole point of a run trigger is so these problems aren't encountered, because the opposite of pressing a run trigger is, obviously, a slow walk.
@ThomasBW84 Can one player be Murfy all the time and never have to do any platforming as long as there's another player? I have a brother who sucks at platformers but could probably manage Murfy.
I'm fairly sure you can play the Wii U version with the PS3-esque Murfy controls (i.e. not slowing down the pace, the player still plays as Rayman), because the game can be played with a pro controller, can it not? Or does player 1 have to use the gamepad to play the game in single-player and the Pro controller can only be used for for players 2-5? And what about Murfy during off-screen play?
Aww yeah. This has made me get a Wii U, which is saying something about my Sonic fanboyness considering the only other thing on Wii U I care about is Rayman Legends.
I hope this is along the lines of 'the plot will be recapped really well' rather than 'we're leaving out all the references to the prior games because we want new players and f*** the old ones'.
@KingBoo01 Yeah, I would start with AA1 before playing any others. The series definitely has an overarching storyline which you don't want to spoil by playing this first. You'll probably just think DD is bad because you won't 'get it', to some extent. Like if there's a stepladder joke in this game you would totally not get the joke.
You could probably play AA Investigations without prior knowledge, but even then you wouldn't like Edgeworth as much.
The could always have changed it completely so it's a quiz about the AA series instead for western markets or something.
Such as 'In which AA game was Phoenix the biggest detective to Maya?' The answer, there, being T&T of course

Re: Review: Sonic Lost World (3DS)
Literally called rings 'coins' in third-to-last paragraph
But yeah, after everyone except me hated Generations on 3DS, I think I'll still be getting this (in fact, both versions).

Re: Review: Sonic Lost World (Wii U)
Aww.
Welp, getting both versions anyway. Too much of a Sonic nut to resist (in fact, Sonic was the deciding factor in my purchase of a Wii U).

Yeah, that's pre-rendered video, it wasn't made by playing an actual game engine.
Re: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destines DLC Won't Feature The Quiz in The West

And I'll probably only get Phoenix's costume, because I'm not that fond of Apollo and Sykes looks just fine as is.
