March Court Date for Phoenix Wright 2
Perhaps Nintendo is hoping the affable lawyer will throw a wrench in the PS3 launch.
Explain to someone the premise of Phoenix Wright - a game in which you play a young lawyer who fights in the courtroom - and you're likely to get blank stares, but thrust a DS into their hands and the confusion melts away. The first game was something of a cult hit on the DS. Now the legal head-bopper is getting another day in court.
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All carries on from the story begun in the first game and follows our intrepid hero as he battles a new district attorney in four more cases.
The gameplay stays mostly the same but it has been invigorated by the addition of a Psyche-Lock feature to gameplay. You'll still need to collect evidence at the scene and then bring the case to court. Once there you'll also be able to delve into the minds of witnesses on the stand, trying to undo their Psyche-Locks.
Already out in the US and Japan, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All will be out in Europe on 16 March.
