Capcom brought along The Great Ace Attorney to Jump Festa 2015 this past weekend. Attendees were able to give the game a go through a new playable demo. For details as to what was included in the play session, read on below.

– Demo is set on a board to England
– Ryuunosuke and his assistant encounter Sherlock Holmes
– Holmes is interrogating a suspicious Russian man
– The collaborative deduction began with Holmes’ assessment of the Russian man (who he is and what crime he has committed)
– Holmes presents his evidence and explains how it supports his conclusions
– Throughout the explanation, something seems amiss
– This leads to the second half with Ryuunosuke breaking down Holmes’ reasoning and unveiling the truth
– There are certain phrases or points of focus that are wrong in Holmes’ argument
– Ex: Holmes says the Russian man is holding a pair of scissors because he intends to cut off his beard; use the touch screen to examine the Russian man from different angles, and focus on any suspicious points on his person
– Use this method to switch out the term “beard” in Holmes’ argument with the real term
– In the demo, the real term was “hair”
– This ultimately leads to the truth
– Find the flaws in Holmes’ explanation to reach the truth about who the Russian man is
– You’ll then be presented with a cliffhanger and a message saying to look forward to the rest of the story in the full game
– Holmes’ character description: “His unparalleled observation and deductive skills see not only the ‘truth’ but sometimes go beyond the truth and become a ‘rampage of logic.'”

Just when we thought that Capcom may take a break on announcing collaborations for Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, the company reveals another. Today Capcom provided a first look at a Devil May Cry crossover for the title. Players will be able to dress their Felyne in a Dante costume – complete with his hair, jacket, and sword.

New crossovers continue to be announced for Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. During today’s Capcom Cup Ultra Street Fighter IV tournament, it was revealed that Blanka and Chun Li will be featured in the 3DS game as outfits for Felynes. You can catch the trailer revealing the new Street Fighter crossover below.

Phoenix Wright is a character we’ve all come to love over the years. But did you know that he could have had a different name?

Alex Smith, a localization editor working on Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, said he originally suggested the name Roger. ‘Pierce,’ ‘Xavier,’ ‘Marcus,’ and ‘Zane’ were also on the list of proposed first names for Phoenix.

Smith told USgamer:

“My original suggestion for Phoenix Wright was ‘Roger Wright.’ I had come up with a list of first names and a list of last names, and submitted that to Capcom. And, in those, ‘Phoenix’ was one of the first name options, but pretty far down on my list. And Roger was at the top. And ‘Wright,’ I felt, had to be the his last name, because of the pun in Japanese… ‘Naruhodo’ was used so many times in the text as a joke. Also, it’s just self-deprecating humor, where the one guy whose name is ‘I get it!’ just doesn’t get it. I needed something that was bold and like, ‘Yeah right, I got it!’ so he could say that and kind of own that attitude, even though he had no idea what he was doing.

“So ‘Wright’ was there, and ‘Roger’ was my first choice, because heroes—they like to have alliteration. Also, if you’ve ever seen the movie Airplane, [‘Roger’] is a great source of silly jokes as well. So that seemed like a name with a lot of potential. They ended up going for ‘Phoenix’ because they liked the heroism of it, and there was a comment from the Japanese dev team—they felt like ‘Roger Wright’ sounded too much like ‘Roger Rabbit.'”

Update: The page has been pulled and Mega Man Zero isn’t on the eShop, so it looks like today isn’t the day after all. Maybe next week?


It isn’t mentioned anywhere in Nintendo’s newest digital download report, but Mega Man Zero is apparently releasing on the North American Wii U Virtual Console today. Nintendo’s website has the game listed for launch on December 11 with a $7.99 price point. Once the eShop updates, we should be able to confirm this.
