As if two new PSP games and an impressive collaboration with the famed animators at Studio Ghibli wasn't enough for one day, Level-5 has also dropped some additional details on sequels to two of their biggest DS titles: Professor Layton and Inazuma Eleven
The third Professor Layton offering is the only one of these five Level-5 games not being released in 2009; instead, it's set for a November 27th release in Japan. The soccer-themed Inazuma Eleven will return in 2009 with Inazuma Eleven 2, packing a new storyline, more characters, and a new team made up of space invaders! Level-5 will be "formally unveiling" all five titles later this week in Tokyo; we'll try to wrastle all of 'em up at TGS next month.

Just to clarify, Level-5 only hires Omega-class mutants. That's how they can make all these games.

Not mutants, robots... made of gold... no diamonds!

It took about a year for the first one to come to the US after it came out in Japan. Also, it didn't do nearly as good in the US as in Japan.

All this talk of DS RPGs... Camelot needs to respond and bust out a Golden Sun 3. Now THAT would be awesome.

Okay so I want to post a comment on Joystiq, but before I do I need to solve a puzzle. Maybe you can help me?
I have two lengths of rope.
Each one can burn in exactly one hour.
They are not necessarily of the same length or width as each other.
They also are not of uniform width (may be wider in middle than on the end), thus burning half of the rope is not necessarily 1/2 hour.
By burning these ropes, how can I measure exactly 45 minutes worth of time?

Just burn one rope in both ends, and the other one just one end.
The first one will burn completely in 30 minutes. Now, immediatly burn the second rope on the other end, and it will burn completely in 15 more minutes... giving you a total of 45 minutes.
=p
