Ace Attorney toilet paper, featuring “Objection!” “Hold it!” and “Take that!” exclamations. This totally nonsensical item and many, many others are being released in honor of this month’s Ace Attorney movie.
Stuff that even normal people would want, all shown at Andriasang, includes cute sticker sheets, Blue Badger plushes, and key covers.
Speaking of that Ace Attorney movie, director Takashi Miike recently told an audience that it’ll be localized into multiple languages for worldwide release. Great news! Now localize the toilet paper.

No new details about the game for the moment, but it’s still slated to release in Japan for 3DS this year.

Ace Attorney 5 announced at Capcom’s 10th anniversary event for the series in Tokyo last night. The company didn’t bother to provide critical details like a release date, information about the story, or whether this will be an Apollo Justice or Phoenix Wright joint, but expect to hear more about all that in the coming weeks/months.
And while we didn’t hear anything about what system(s) it will appear on, given that the game’s primary platforms so far were Game Boy Advance and DS — and that we also have Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney coming to 3DS — it’s likely this will hit Nintendo’s new handheld first.

Cover for Gyakuten Saiban Sound Box, a new CD collection being published by Capcom on February 8. This set collects the music from Ace Attorney 1-3, specifically as it sounded through the “high quality” Wii hardware. Do I need to go back and get the Wii versions now?
I’m glad Capcom is still serving the fanbase for this series in Japan… :(

tags / phoenix wright / ace attorney / wiiware / jc / gaming / soundtrackSubtitled trailer for Takashi Miike’s Ace Attorney film (turn on annotations by pressing the little speech bubble icon to see subtitles). This looks hella dramatic! I kind of wonder if the costumes are too accurate — I mean, I definitely appreciate the accurate costumes, and prefer them to unrecognizable, toned-down ones, but they have the effect of making this look a bit like cosplayers acting.
Basically, my feelings on the important matter of what the wardrobe looks like in the Phoenix Wright movie are complicated. I’m gonna go meditate on these troubled thoughts. In any case, I am so down to see this at the earliest possible opportunity.

The full trailer isn’t expected to debut until next week, but portions of it popped up recently in a variety show. This looks much better than I’d expect for a live action adaptation of the courtroom adventure series!

tags / capcom / ace attorney / phoenix wright / films / takashi miike / gaming / imports / ecNew Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney TGS trailer. The new 3D models for Phoenix and Layton are quite nice in motion! The whole game, unsurprisingly, looks hot.
An English-language press release for this 3DS game was found at TGS last week, implying a Western release is in the works. It seems obvious that Level-5 would consider it, what with this being the top-voted entry in the publisher’s poll for which games its fans are most excited about (Ni no Kuni for PS3, the wrong version, was the survey’s second most popular item and will come to the U.S. in early 2012).

The new characters accompanying the professor, Phoenix, Luke, and Maya, are Mahoney, the blond girl accused of being a witch; and Jeeken, the ginger prosecutor/knight.
This Level-5/Capcom 3DS collab, which has only been announced for Japan so far, introduces a “Mob Judgment” system in which ”Phoenix goes up against a crowd of witnesses” and “witnesses may talk amongst themselves during a cross-examination”.

Volume 1, including ten characters from the main AA series, will be out in Japan this May, and volume 2 with Ace Attorney Investigations characters will be out in June. Yes, that means that if you buy a (¥5,000) box of the first set available, there won’t be an Edgeworth or Gumshoe in it. Which is unfortunate.
Less unfortunate, however, is the fact that these are SO CUTE. So. Cute. If they’re importable individually (they’ll sell for ¥500 yen each in Japan) I might end up with some more straps I don’t do anything with. The box sets can be preordered at Amiami (vol. 1, 2).

Phoenix Wright, Miles Edgeworth, and Maya Fey illustration by Ace Attorney series art director Tatsuro Iwamoto (also serves the voice of Miles in Japan).
The illustration, which was posted on Iwamoto’s Twitter yesterday. says something like “Let’s work hard and not be defeated by the earthquake!!” Ace Attorney fans will remember that Miles has a particular fear of earthquakes.

Amazon posted this same deal earlier this morning, but that died quick. It’s back again, but I suggest you grab this soon if you’re interested!

Phoenix Wright Magatama necklace by WTFcharms. It seems like an obvious idea (fandom + in-game jewelry item = real-life jewelry item), but this is the first one I’ve seen. If this version works like the one in the game, wearing it will allow you to see and break the invisible mental locks people place on information they don’t want to reveal.
Also, it glows in the dark.
