Siliconera recently chatted with Ace Attorney series producer Motohide Eshiro and Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies scenario director Takeshi Yamazaki. You can find the full thing here, but there are a couple of points that stand out.

News popped up yesterday that Nintendo is not yet accepting indie developers from Japan. Nintendo has since officially confirmed that this is true, but hasn’t truly explained why the policy is in place.

An official statement from the company reads:

“The policy in question is the decision of Nintendo’s department responsible for licensing activities in each region, and the licensing department of Nintendo is currently not accepting subject applications from individuals in Japan.”

With Nintendo using words like “currently” and “at this time”, that gives the impression that Japanese indie will eventually be allowed on board. The situation stinks for the time being, but there isn’t much that can be done!
