How are there already FOUR Phoenix Wright games?? When will Capcom learn all this does is cause series to decline in sales prematurely.

I believe the first three were originally on the GBA; but got ported to the DS (where they took off and started to revival of the adventure genre). GS4 is the first game actually made from the ground up for the DS i think.

Edit: semi-beaten :(

PW4 1st shipment - 400k. Capcom is in full force to push the title. There is chance that it will sell out its 1st shipment before next arrive in end of April.

Very impressive, if this shipment sells out it is the highest selling Gyakuten Saiban game ever on a single platform.

The DS release of Gyakuten Saiban 1 sold 277,394 and the GBA release of Gyakuten Saiban 2 sold 278,431.

On the subject of frequent releases....
GS1 on the GBA came out in 2001
GS2 on the GBA came out in 2002
GS3 on the GBA came out in 2004
GS4 on the DS came out in 2007

That means over the course of 6 years there are 4 games, which is less frequent than many franchises. Especially by Capcom.

Another trend I would like to point out is that GS is a series whose sales get better as the franchise moves forward, moreso this time because it is a new story arc on the fastest selling console ever.

Edit: And the Japanese lawyer guy is supposedly one of Japan's most famous lawyer, they are pulling out the big guns to have a guy like this push the sales of the series. I look forward in seeing how the game sells and hope that it has legs to make us say WOW.

Personally I may buy the import game just because I can't wait until 2008 and I know that some person will write a translation FAQ sooner or later.

Not surprising, it's really horrible so word of mouth hurt sales.

It's Minuki somehow.

It's Minuki somehow.
Then the magic would have to make her age. Even if we make the crazy assumption that Phoenix had a daughter after GS3, the leap to GS4 is only seven years. Plus, the candidates for Phoenix's baby momma would either be, uh, Maya or Ema. Even though he has Ema's pin, she seems to definitely not look like a MILF with what we've seen of her.

oh god why am I replying to this seriously

Vinnk, you hear this? You need to put GS4 on your list of games to check when it's released.

Sure. I'll look out for it. But it probably won't be on my list this week. (have to check that release date)

On that note I have to say that I will be leaving for the U.S. on April 18th. I will be there visiting my family for about 2 and a half weeks. And while I will have internet and definately be hanging out on NeoGAF, there is no way I can give you guys a "Vinnk's Village" report for a few weeks. I could email Hiro and get the Famicon Dojo numbers, but that would be about it.

ANYway... Nintendo said they would ship a lot more Wii's this week compared to previous weeks. Have you seen any evidence on that Vinnk?

Unacceptable.

Your only way to redeem this is to have a Vinnk's Travel Anecdotal Report ready for the NPD thread. Chop chop!

I still rarely see them at the stores. There might be more. If there are, they are selling as fast as they can put them out. Then again sometimes it takes an additional week before the smaller towns get bigger shipments. At least that was the case for the DS phat.

Was this in Famitsu or something? I was trying to avoid most spoilers, and I highlighted this because i thought it was going to say
Phoenix Wright is a bum or something

Yes...

I was asking if
the Minuki thing was said in Famitsu. I usually don't find things that are openly revealed in magazines to be spoilers, but I don't like to hear anything else about games, especially story heavy games like this.
