Trailer for Detective Saburo Jinguuji: Red Butterfly (Tantei Jinguuji Saburo: Akai Chou), the latest “Jake Hunter” adventure on the way to Japan. Even if you don’t care about chain-smoking, high-haired detectives, you should check this out for the music alone.

NCSX offers a synopsis of the main case: “The core case revolves around a series of political bombings that occurred 20 years ago and current bombings that are targeting lawmakers. Saburo is charged with the task of uncovering the identify of a terrorist named “Red Butterfly” who claims responsibility for the carnage.”

Jake Hunter lights up DS again →

Arc System Works has announced a fourth DS game in the Saburo Jinguuji adventure game series (not counting the five DSiWare cases): Detective Saburo Jinguuji: Red Butterfly (Tantei Jinguuji Saburo: Akai Chou), coming to Japanese retailers September 30.

I wish I could tell you what the new game is about, other than the detective’s ongoing love affair with cigarettes, but basically all that’s been released at this point is the date and the above artwork. I was kind of blown away by the last localized Jake Hunter game, so I’m happy to see Workjam continuing with the series.

Tantei Jinguuji Saburo DS: Fuserareta Shinjitsu posters. While the artwork for the third Jinguuji Saburo DS adventure released by Arc System Works in March (before they turned to DSiWare) isn’t quite as classy as the Last Window art, what Arc did with it is pretty great.

The company put the kind of promotional materials usually used for retail — posters, mockup boxarts, and other displays — and put it all online in high resolution for fans to download. I wish everyone made not only the usual screens and character art, but stuff like this available! While most of us aren’t going to advertise the (then) impending release of a niche Japanese adventure game by printing out pre-release boxart and slipping it into a DS case, it’s nice to have the option.

Trailer for Another Code: R. Confession time: I never played the DS Another Code/Trace Memory, but I always meant to — and now I’m more motivated to do so, because the Wii sequel looks great. I’m really impressed with the cel-shaded style!

The bottom of the Japanese Another Code: R website shows that, like the Play on Wii ports of Pikmin and Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, Cing’s adventure sequel will include reversible boxart. Not that the other side could be much better than the known box image.

I have no idea what is on the reverse, but as a boxart fan I could not be happier about this trend. Every game should have at least two boxarts to talk about!
