Sounds to me like this will end up hitting the 3DS at some point. I’m pretty sure that’s the only portable system Nintendo has in the pipeline!

PRESS RELEASE: Nnooo announce the development of Spirit Hunters Inc: Shadow™ and Spirit Hunters Inc: Light™ for Nintendo DSiWare™ and future Nintendo portable devices.
Spirit Hunters Inc: Shadow and Spirit Hunters Inc: Light are augmented reality games in which the player works for Spirit Hunters Inc, a mysterious company which specialises in the detection, capture and trade of ghostly spirits.

“Spirit Hunters Inc. is essentially a Role Playing Game set in the real world.”, said Nic Watt, Creative Director, Nnooo. “Players use the camera built into their devices to hunt out and battle spirits anywhere in the world. Whether it at the supermarket, shopping mall, home or even on holiday. Spirits are hiding all around us!”


Thanks to Robert for the tip!


So far, only two Professor Layton titles have been released in Europe and North America as compared to five games in Japan. However, Nintendo might be ready to launch the third entry in the series overseas. Level-5 has registered a trademark for Professor Layton and the Unwound Future, which would leave one to believe that this is the localized name for The Last Time Travel. Don’t expect an immediate announcement from Nintendo, but it’s definitely possible that the company will say something next month at E3.
