Possible delay for Harvey Birdman

by Candace Savino on Oct 20th 2007 5:03PM

Capcom hasn't announced anything official, so take this news with a grain of salt, but Spencer Yip over at Siliconera pointed out some highly suspicious activity on the part of online retailers. Evidently, Amazon and EBgames both list Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law with a January release date, while Gamefly has the game's date listed as "TBD." Hmmmmmm.

This is disappointing, considering that the game is supposed to come out in mid-November. If they need more time to tweak the controls for the newly added Wii version, though, we'll gladly (grumble, grumble) deal with it. We definitely want everything perfect for this tasty point-and-click treat.

We'll keep you updated on the status of this game, but we recommend being prepared for the worst. Of course, if this turns out to be true, at least we have another Capcom lawyer game to keep us busy in the meantime.

Thanks for the heads up. Glad to see the new people contributing on the weekends: they used to be so dead on here! That's the day I can check at work, so its nice to have you on the job!

I don't understand why they don't just make this a DS game like Phoenix Wright. Maybe that's the reason for delay?

@L:
No way they'd be able to cram the amount of animation and voice acting on a DS Game Card. Plus, the project started on PS2/PSP, so a Wii version is much easier to create than a DS version.
