3DS

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies is the series’ first game to be shown in 3D. As such, Capcom had to experiment with polygon models – including Phoenix himself – until they felt a proper transition from the 2D games had been made.

Here’s one of the first prototypes created by the team:

And this is the final result:

Localization director Janet Hsu gave an explanation of the prototype’s history in a Capcom-Unity post:


It’s no secret how big of a Zelda fan Robin Williams is. He and his daughter, Zelda, were featured in a number of commercials a couple of years ago to promote Ocarina of Time 3D, Four Swords Anniversary Edition, and Skyward Sword.

So what’s Williams’ favorite Zelda game of all time? That’d be Ocarina of Time, which also happens to be the last Zelda he fully completed.

Writing in a Reddit IAMA session, Williams said:

“I think the last game I played was Ocarina of Time, and that was the last one I’ve had the chance to play all the way through.”

Also in the IAMA, Williams cleared up a common misconception about the name of his daughter. While this had been confirmed previously, Williams said his son originally came up with the idea for Zelda.

“It wasn’t actually me, it was my son Zachary who came up with the idea. But once Marsha and I heard it, we said it was great.”

With Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl launching next week, there’s no better time than now to familiarize yourself with the series. Amazon has the franchise’s latest entry, Etrian Odyssey IV, on sale for just $20. The game normally costs $40, so you’d be saving $20 (or 50%).


Unsurprisingly, Monster Hunter 4 was a huge endevour for Capcom. Speaking in an internal interview, series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto said “a few hundred people” contributed to the game’s development.

How does that compare to other Capcom games? DmC Devil May Cry, a fairly high-profile release, saw a development team of “over 90 members”. Resident Evil 6, on the other hand, experienced a staff count of over 600 people.
