The Great Ace Attorney has been out in Japan for a couple of weeks now. Recently, an official character poll was conducted where fans could vote on their favorites. Capcom has now published the results – the most popular character is Kazuma Asougi, a close friend of main character Naruhodou Ryuunosuke, who himself only came in fourth. Second place is claimed by Sherlock Holmes and Barok Van Zieks, the rival prosecutor of this game, placed third. Check out the full results in the gallery below.

There is still no word on a Western release date for this game. Hopefully we’ll hear about it soon.

Wind-up Knight 2 is launching on the North American Wii U eShop tomorrow. Interestingly, it appears that a New 3DS port is in the works as well. Some off-screen footage is posted below.

Unity 5 is being used as a base for the engine’s support on New 3DS. There have been plans to offer a beta to developers this summer, and have titles on the eShop by the end of this year.

Bandai Namco might be working on its third Taiko no Tatsujin for Wii U. A new domain name on the publisher’s Japanese website, which should be updated once an official announcement is made.

You may recall that Taiko no Tatsujin Tokumori was leaked in a similar manner. Soon after its domain name was discovered, Bandai Namco unveiled the title.
