Level-5 CEO hints at European release of Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 6 Comments
There may be some hope for a European release of Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney.
Speaking at the Japan Expo in France yesterday, when asked if the 3DS game will be heading to the European markets, Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino noted:
“Something’s in the works, but I can’t talk about it today. Please be patient.”
Level-5 published Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney in Japan, so they’d likely have control when it comes to releasing the title overseas. Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has said that Nintendo is interested in helping Japanese companies bring their games to the west – maybe Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney could be one of them?

A new Tekken for 3DS would probably be a card game
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Namco Bandai put out one Tekken game on the 3DS, Tekken 3D: Prime Edition. This was a traditional Tekken experience. But if another entry in the series were to come to 3DS, it would probably be a card game.
Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada told French website Pockett:
“If we were to make a new Tekken game for Nintendo 3DS … We would do something else. A card game like Tekken Card Tournament is more likely. But, to date, there is no such plan.”
