There’s been lots of Ace Attorney-related news lately since the next mainline game was announced this week. However, the latest spin-off title, The Great Ace Attorney, is still trucking along in Japan. Today marks the release of its eighth and final round of DLC. The eighth issue of Randst Magazine contains the following:

– a short episode with Sherlock Holmes on trial
– Nintendo 3DS Theme featuring Kazuma Asougi
– concept-art for the characters Episode 3 and 5
– Behind the Scenes video for the game’s sound effects
– beta music for Naruhodou Ryuunosuke

The most interesting thing about it, however, is that it also includes this message from Shu Takumi, basically the creator of the whole Ace Attorney franchise:

“London, at the turn of the 20th century…
I hope you enjoyed your great turnabout voyage.
The team is looking forward to the day we can meet you again in Ryuunosuke’s next adventure.”

(all credit to Court-Records for the translation)

Does this mean a sequel to The Great Ace Attorney is in the works? We don’t know for sure, but it’s definitely a possibility. Sadly, a Western release for a possible sequel seems pretty unlikely, given that Capcom seems to have no plans to localize the first one.

Bandai Namco’s mysterious new free-to-play game formerly known as Project Treasure, which was recently revealed as Lost Reavers, has now released the Beta for players in Japan to try. The free-to-play Wii U exclusive has you and other players attempting to reach the end of dungeons with a specific set of skills dependent on your character while collecting treasures along the way. You can read up more on the various characters and watch its brand new trailer here.

No word yet on when or if we’ll be seeing this Beta make its way over to the west.

Thanks Niels for the heads up!

Leading up to Super Mario Maker’s release on Sept. 11th, we’re highlighting some of the coolest, most creative, or just plain ridiculous levels users have created so far. In this episode, we check out the level “The Great Goomba March” from Dalagonash in the UK, who piles in more goombas per square foot than we’ve ever seen in a Mario level!

Let us know if you have any suggestions for levels we should cover in the comments and we’ll check it out!

Following a listing from the ESRB earlier today, it’s now confirmed that Mario Golf for the N64 is due out on the North American Virtual Console tomorrow. You’ll be able to purchase the Wii U download via the eShop for $9.99.

Here’s an overview:

Mario takes a well-deserved break from his role as the Mushroom Kingdom’s busiest hero and returns to the links for some world-class golfing action. Since no one likes to hit the fairways alone, he’s brought along a group of friends—both familiar characters and brand-new ones. Choose from 10 different modes of play and six 18-hole courses in a variety of environments for a golfing experience with endless replay value. Add fun, colorful graphics with a Mario touch, intuitive controls, incredibly deep gameplay, and multiplayer support into the mixture, and you have a game that anyone will enjoy—even if they’ve never played a round of golf!
