No plans for Professor Layton on Wii
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 3 Comments
“This trilogy comes to a conclusion with Professor Layton and the Last Time Travel, but we will be releasing the first title of the new trilogy, Professor Layton and the Flute of Malevolent Destiny in Japan. The new trilogy will also be based around solving puzzles, but will also include greatly improved bonus modes so I think that players will be able to enjoy the games for even longer. We currently have no plans for a Wii release.” – Level 5 CEO Akihiro Hino
Level 5 have their hands busy with the trilogy of prequels for the DS. But would any of you be interested in seeing the series on the Wii?
