Apollo Justice doesn't object to Feb. 19 release [update]

by Justin McElroy on Jan 11th 2008 7:00PM

We already knew that Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, the first batch of cases for Capcom's new lawyer, was coming in early 2008, and Capcom let us know exactly how early today. Phoenix's successor is going to make his debut on ~~February 12~~ February 19. If you haven't been keeping up with series, you might be interested to learn that this is the first edition of the game built from the ground up for the DS.

If you want to get a sampling of the new gameplay, you'll be able to find a web demo at this site at some point this month. If you're the impatient sort, you can just check out this fan-made version here.

[Updated: Capcom's original press release mistakenly had the game releasing on the 12th and not the 19th.]

Basic reading ability is needed to fully enjoy this game.

Oye, I still haven't finished Trials and Tribulations :O

YYYYEEEEESSSS!!!!!!!!!!

2 days after SSBB? Perfect! I'll have something to play at work to curb the Smash withdrawals.

I could do actual work, but that's boring.

I still haven't finished Justice for All haha. It just doesn't give me the drive the first game did.

It's a good game, but when you get to game number three, it drags on.

This one is the first game made with the DS in mind, which what was so awesome about the final case of the first title.

I can't wait.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ONE WEEK EARLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I HAVE TO GO FINISH T&T!!!!!

The first 3 games were disgustingly amazing. Im hoping this one will do good on a count of a lack of Maya, Edgey, Butz, etc.

On that note, has anyone played the japanese version? Hows the story in terms of epicness compared to the other three?

OBJECTION!

Who is going to buy the game when SSBB just came out?

HOLD IT!!!

Of course I'm going to buy this over SSBB because I don't own a Wii and have no intention of doing so. I just finished the first game minutes ago (the 2nd one was the first one I played) and now I'm on to T&T!

Hey pal, some of us can't afford to purchase a Wii and Smash Bros. on an instant noodle-budget.

*scratches back of head*

Shame that Trials and Tribulations still doesn't even have a RELEASE DATE yet in Europe. I've been waiting for that game forever, and the only thing listed on websites is 'TBA 2008'.

It really is times like this that makes me want to jump aboard the piracy wagon, especially as importing games is considered just as illegal...

It's even more painful when the game was already in English for the Japanese release in the first place!

Well, rechecking on gamefaqs, a 'plus' side is that Trials and Tribulations now says '21st March 2008' for the EU release date. (If you call seven months late a plus...)

The downside, of course, is that gamefaqs has never been reliable for release dates, and it's the only site that seems to have this date. Amazon and all other online stores don't even -list- it for Europe...

GAME have the release date down on their website as 21st March as well. Here's hoping that's a proper confirmation, they're usually fairly good with dates.
