Bolt Storm has had an advanced look at this week's Famitisu magazine. Sad to say, there was nothing Ace Attorney related.

So what does this mean? All DS era games were first announced via Famitisu, usually in conjunction with Tokyo Game Show, with meager exception.

So the absence of any Famitisu news, in conjunction with Capcom planning to show off an old TGS trailer (which would certainly pull attention from any new game that might be announced), I think it's safe to say that no new games will be announced.

Now, you can read this as either a good thing, or a bad thing:

  • Good thing: No Ace Attorney: The Movie - The GAME. It's bad to judge, but movie tie in games tend to stink.
  • Bad thing: No Ace Attorney 5, or Ace Attorney Investigations 2, (or Ghost Trick 2?)

Of course, just because Famitisu doesn't have anything to say on the matter, doesn't mean that nothing will come out of the event this Sunday. We've had concerts and musicals announced in the past, and there's still Professor Layton vs Ace Attorney for which we've still not seen any Layton gameplay for (Though, why would they show off Layton at a Capcom event?), not to mention the movie. Also, while I'm thinking about it. Don't expect confirmation on a western release date. This is a Japanense event, for the Japanese fans. They won't care.




Also, it's come to my attention that some files did not make the jump to the new server. Since Croik's been for the most part unavailable, I'll take the initiative and try to put back some broken things. Right now that means the scripts 'should' be back up.

Mind you, my backup copy of CR is likely not as up to date as Croik's so I can't put back things that weren't there to begin with, namely AAI2 material. But if you see anything of note, (or rather don't see), leave a comment in this topic. I'll see what I can do to fix it.

Well, for one, all of Daryan Crescend's sprites seem to have gone missing. That's all I've seen so far.

Better? Apparently the files were all up, the name of the page was using the placeholder english version.

At this point, I'm really just hoping for a decent PLvsAA update. Release date would be ideal, but more media (and an update to the official site) would be enough. Hopefully it's not a case of Hino answering a bunch of generic questions and then reiterating that development is going well with no real new info.

If it's not a game they are planning on bringing out what could it be they have that'll make us fans so happy as they claim?

Unless they asked Famitsu to keep hushed about something...but I don't know if they can even do that.

Maybe it'll simply be a new trailer for the movie or the game.

You can't tell Famitisu to keep quiet about something they aren't told about in the first place. There clearly is some sort of deal between Famitisu and the Devs. Famitisu is a publication first and foremost. People don't read unless they get exclusives, and Famitisu 'had' a proud history behind it. At least... in the 80's and 90's, it had a proud history. Still... it makes one wonder what sort of leverage Famitisu has over Capcom to this day.

It bears reiterating that Eshiro simply said that fans would be happy this year, starting with the event on the 29th, not that there would be something there to make fans happy.

Which follows with the opening night of the Ace Attorney movie.

...

*face desk*

THAT's what the event is all about. It's to build up hype for the GS movie. Not unlike preorder goodies for boosting sales.

That seems like it should've been horrifically obvious to us....

Oh the shame :yuusaku:

Well maybe they'll have something else to say at it other than just being a hype fest.

Well, they've also let people submit questions to Takumi and co. to answer. But yes, I imagine there'll be a decent amount of focus on the movie.

Man I feel like a total idiot. Everything fits. The lack of rumors on a new game, the odd timing relative to the 'actual' 10th anniversary, the closeness to the movie's opening night, the old TGS promo.

You know. We're royally setting ourselves up to be disappointed.

Capcom: Sees event as an excuse to pump the movie.
Fans: Sees event to announce something we haven't seen or heard before.

Man. I am SO slow on the uptake. Do I even deserve to admin a fan site about detective work if I figure things out so late to be obnoxiously obvious?

Some day... Frank Sawit... Some day, I will defeat you.

Harsh, hombre, harsh. Don't worry your head about it too much; events get overhyped all the time, and with RE6 getting announced to coincide with RE's 15th, it seemed likely. Like I said, I'm just looking forward to that promised PLvsAA info at this point (though, as I mentioned, it could always be a cop-out).

Wooster, I think we all made that assumption. :payne: But it was a fair assumption to make. :sadshoe:

I'm keeping somewhat optimistic, though. Not getting insanely hyped, but I've not totally lost hope :odoroki:

Aw darn :sadshoe:

Well, that's that, I suppose. It's not as if they're denying a new game or anything.


Anyway, let's just hope that this event gets good coverage and the movie does well; the better the franchise does, the more likely we are to get another game.

Dudes, dudes, DUDES! Take a chill pill! There's nothing for us to expect of the event, but you guys are making it sound like there is an absolute certainty that we'll all be disappointed, even if we don't expect anything. And you're making it look like this disappointment was so painfully obvious that those of us who expect something are unworthy of Ace Attorney games. Easy, Woost! Hahaha.

I'm pretty certain this is not an event made exclusively to hype the movie, and even if that were the case, WHO CARES, it's more AA awesomeness!

I myself are decently hyped but are completely ready for a disappointment. Three days to go yay!

Well, Japanese GS blog owner hoso_boso just tweeted something that sums up things pretty well:

hoso_boso wrote:
来週のファミ通は「カプコン新作祭り」だそうですが、だからといって逆転シリーズネタがあるとは書いてなかったし、新作にはドラゴンズドグマのような既出未発売ゲームが含まれてたし、逆転裁判10周年特別法廷で新作発表なんて話も今の所ないし。私は過剰な期待はしない主義です。


Translation wrote:
It seems next week's Famitsu has the "New Capcom Title Festival", but there's no word on Ace Attorney, "new title" here includes already-announced things like Dragon's Dogma, and there's been no talk of any new announcements at the Special Court, so I'm not getting my hopes up too high.


In short, a big new announcement could still happen, but the evidence is against it at the moment. But like I said, I'll be happy with PLvsAA info - the more of that game I see, the better.

This is more related to the movie, but i just found some juicy info - in English too!

http://www.ntv.co.jp/english/pc/2011/11/363.html

Yay for over 2 hours of Wrighto-goodness! :gant:

Also, someone has put on the wikipedia page for the movie that it's out 15th May in the US. Not enough evidence to support this, plus it's from wikipedia. Just throwing it out there team. :shoe:

Guys the event just started. I'm on my DSi, anyone willing to post any info here as it comes? You can check the official 10th Anniversary site and Andriasang every once in a while as sources. I'm hoping for at least new info or a trailer for PLvsAA.

Bolt, Woost, you know what to do. Don't let me down, fellas!

Here I am checking both sites and the official twitter for the 10th anniversary (Which hasn't updated in 7 hours....)

EDIT: According to some tweets, the event has finished, but I don't see any info about what happened, just happy people xD

The guests for the first showing were asked to wait until the second showing began (~20 minutes from now) before they revealed new information. According to the reliable hoso_boso, there was "certainly very good new information/news revealed". There's buzz of it being the mythical AA5, but that's all just speculation from the looks of it.
