Great!! Sucks that its ps4 only, this is a mobile franchise to me.
The first one( fan translated) is amazing and im halfway thru the second.

this seems like a big deal
I actually been meaning to get back into this series after finishing the amazing Paradise Killer the other day, which has a bunch of key similarities with the Ace Attorney series

it's not, we basically know about upcoming Capcom games until 2024-2025
Oh, great! should get added to the OP, unless i missed it? Buying this day 1 on switch.
Oh wow. I already played the first one thanks to that excellent fan translation. I'm down for the official release.
not that I hate the new look, but it would be neat if they let you switch back and forth with the original pixel art
edit: I'm assuming the games were originally released on DS or 3DS with the same visual style as the original trilogy, maybe I'm wrong

Semi-unexpected for me. I'd heard about the first game's localization awhile ago, but now apparently we're getting both of them?! This'll probably be a day one purchase.
IIRC, now the only (officially) unlocalized Ace Attorney is Gyakuten Kenji 2 (AAI2). Would be really awesome if we could get that sometime, but I'm not holding my breath.
Website seems to suggest that there will be a Physical version for the Switch only, code in a box style.
Time to import the Japanese physical then.

Btw, if you want to play something in anticipation of this, I think most people probably haven't played the ace attorney game shu takumi made right before these: Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Which is honestly underrated, and has mechanical similarities to these two.
Going to buy the crap out of this and hope this is a good sign for the AAI games eventually coming over.

Oh shit! I've been looking forward to this for a long time, and this looks so good. Loving all the bonus features this seems to have. Day 1 for me!
Ohhh, good looking out. I'm in for an import as well, in that case.
Is it still worth playing if you don't like the Professor Layton series (it me. I'm the weirdo who doesn't like Layton)?
FINALLY
July is just around the corner, if you're in waiting mode since 2016 it's nothing. Can't wait!

The game is definitely heavier on Layton than Wright. I enjoyed the first couple of courtroom scenes, but the later ones really take the story in a Layton direction (if you've played a couple of Layton games, you'll know what I mean). I was pretty disappointed given Takumi's involvement. If I was rating it as a part of the AA series, I'd put it at the bottom just below AA5 and AAI1
That said, it easily has some of the best Ace Attorney music in the series.

Some of the far-out games could be canceled for all we know, so we shouldn't treat that list like the end-all be-all. Plus there are some games missing from the list.
Its layton heavy, but its easy layton, if thats a consideration. It's definitely a goofy layton (non canon) plot though if thats the issue.
Come on dude, its way better than aai 1. It's tied or maybe a little above aa6 for me, which I also enjoyed but was a little shallow.
Yes! Finally! I'm getting this day one and playing the hell out of both games. I've managed to stay away from the unofficial translations, so this should be good. The release should coincide pretty well with my summer vacation too.
Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright is easily the worst Ace Attorney game by a massive margin. Ace Attorney's writing is really good, while PLvsPW is a collection of horrible anime tropes in a "mystery" that doesn't make sense in the slightest. It's the only Ace Attorney game I would never replay.
Gematsu does a good job clarifying all Digital/Physical confusion going on out there:

It's only worth playing if you're a die hard fan of both IP, it's easily the worst AA title (have not played GAA for the record) and second worse Layton title (Katrielle's game is the worst Layton title).

Oh, dang. As someone who never picked up any of the Trilogy rereleases of the original games, this is a nice package:
also leaves room for an eventual 4-6+AAI package lessgo
Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright is a great game and a great story, and its not the worst AA by any means.
I didn't know there was a weird hate squad for layton vs wright. The core mystery is definitely very stupid, but in a fun way -- better than the tepid and much more tropey and cliche dual destinies cases that followed it.
It's also a cool experiment as a game with a super focused set of cases rather than meandering around to tie it all together at the end like most PW games.
