Thanks to the sharp eye of dannycon739, we've caught what appears to be, tentative at least, box art for Professor Layton vs Ace Attorney, off of Gamestop UK's website. There's a 404 on the full sized version so we're kinda limited with regards to analysis.

But here's my thoughts.

The images used in the box art were all present on the Japanese Teaser site or press kits around that time. The exception to this is the logo. I don't know enough about the Layton series to say one way or the other on their logo, but for Ace Attorney, I'm unaware of any English version of the logo, where 'Ace' and 'Attorney' are all on the same line.

Curiously, there's an absence of Level-5's logo.

While I cannot vouch if the box art render is cannon or not, I will say whoever made it is not a two bit hack.

Looks pretty good to me.. though it is pretty early for boxart to be ready. Especially when it hasn't been formally announced as coming here or in the UK. I sincerely hope this doesn't turn into another Xenoblade though..

I'm fairly sure that's just a mock-up from Gamestop; their release date is listed as the 2nd October, their 'information' regarding the game obviously isn't an official statement and as you say, there's no Level 5 logo on the box.

I would say that I'm 99% certain that's not the real box art - as you noted it's comprised of assets from the original reveal, is missing Level-5's logo, and most importantly is being touted before the game's even had an overseas announcement.

What's more interesting to me is when Gamestop put up that listing. I first heard about it a week ago or so, but figured it was just a placeholder Gamestop put up not long after the initial announcement. If this page was made more recently, that would be somewhat more telling.

It's fake: the Wi-Fi Connection branding is no longer used on 3DS games (let alone the red, paid DLC version). The logo is hacked together using the Layton and the Lost Future logo (it looks like the seal even says "and the" still). Not a bad effort, though.

"Professor Layton and the Ace Attorney"... *giggle*

And repeat: It's too early for boxart, seeing as there were no overseas announcement. Although I don't go one the internet as much, I would have heard at least one tidbit of this from my brother, who I've had on the lookout for news.

I also want to note that the genre that they placed the game in is "Driving"... really?

Haven't you heard? The game is just a Crazy Taxi reskin with some story elements added in... :sawit: *sarcasm*
But yeah... I don't believe that is the real box art.

Wow. Layton is short.

Well, I feel a bit silly for believing the box was ambiguous at best, not so full of holes at best. And I claim to be an Ace Attorney fan! How can I let so many contradictions past?!

It's okay Wooster. You're not a spiky-haired protagonist lawyer who can just use the reset button every time you mess up on a contradiction.

No, Layton's just short. The top hat makes him look taller.

Professor Layton & The Lost Future. Best game ever.

I was talking about in the boxart.

Phoenix is close to 6ft, Maya is 5ft, yet in the boxart, it looks like Maya would be 1 inch shorter than Phoenix, excluding the hair.

Not real box art, it's made by Geno from vg-boxart back in July 2010. Just Gamestop being rubbish I'm afraid XD
