REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–One is a brilliant archeologist who has traveled the world solving puzzles and unearthing ancient civilizations. The other is a bumbling defense attorney whose sense of justice is matched only by his sense of style. The two seem like an unlikely pair, but with the life of an innocent girl at stake in Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, the two heroes join forces to tackle an enigmatic mystery big enough for both of them. The Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney game launches for Nintendo 3DS on Aug. 29 and combines the puzzle-solving satisfaction of the Professor Layton series with the courtroom drama of the Phoenix Wright franchise.
“This is the whole truth and nothing but the truth: Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney is an absolute treat for longtime fans of both series and newcomers who love puzzles and engaging stories”
As you might have heard, Tappingo 2 is delayed until 4 September (next week). The Nintendo team asked me if I wanted to delay the game. Because this week was super busy and they could help me
promote the game much better next week.The reason I’m mentioning this is because I’m just super grateful to the NoA team. They are trying to
think with me, and are actively helping out to make Tappingo 2 a success.Without them looking out for me. I would have released the game this week (without knowing about
the other titles coming out). And it would probably been snowed under.Having them behind me is a great feeling!
I think it’s something worth mentioning. Especially after all the negative news about Nintendo and
third parties. I think it’s good to know Nintendo is actively trying to help indies.I do got some cool stuff to share with you about Tappingo 2 as well;
Most players seemed to love the retro console puzzles in Tappingo 1. Well, they are back! But I took
it to the next level; I’m collaborating with some of the biggest Nintendo indies to have puzzles based
on their games.

Theatrhythm producer Ichiro Hazama stated in an interview with German website Planet3DS recently that he’d like to see the Theatrhythm formula brought in to other franchises. Curtain Call will be the last in the series to feature Final Fantasy music and he’s looking for potential avenues for the future of the series. Here’s the quote:
From my personal view, I really like what we’ve created here – the Threatrhythm series and the type of game. And yes, even though this is the end of Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy, I really don’t want to bring the Theatrhythm series as a whole to an end. Obviously I don’t have anything we can announce at the moment but we really would like to move out and go into other titles. So you can certainly expect something from Theatrhythm like that in the future.
