Capcom on lack of Ace Attorney Investigations 2 localization, Okamiden sales surpass first Investigations
Capcom created a lot of buzz recently when they stated that there are no plans to localize Ace Attorney Investigations 2. Now Capcom’s Corporate Officer/Senior Vice-President Christian Svensson has taken a bit of time to explain the company’s reasoning. Svensson also shared an interesting nugget that Okamiden’s sales have already surpassed those of the original Investigations title.
“The costs of localization are higher than the forecasted return. And no, it wouldn’t sell more than Okamiden (which has already sold more than the first Investigations). Could this content show up on some other platform somewhere down the line? Possibly, but there’s nothing on that front for me to talk about. I realize there are fans who would like to have this and I’ll be sure to explore ways that could happen viably in the future with our strategy and R&D teams but no promises.”
