I don’t know about you guys but I’m super pumped for Phoenix Wright Dual Destinies although there is one major bummer so far. It’s nothing major like Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth 2 STILL not getting an international release but it’s still rather annoying nonetheless.
Phoenix Wright Dual Destinies will NOT be getting a physical release upon it’s arrival later this year, instead it will be a digital download exclusive. Capcom states it’s to do with difficulties securing retail space for the game or something, hey whatever it sucks but there may be some hope.
Christian Svensson of Capcom Unity forums recently posted the following regarding the matter.
In the days after we announced AA5 for the West being digital only, and the requests of others for a physical release, we mobilized our US team to put together possible options that may address the concerns.
As a part of that process, Eshiro-san and I have met multiple times, including the morning where he gave the interview where he made the statement above. I was not quite ready to open the possibility to folks until we had a few more ducks in a row but Eschiro suggested he mention the potential in an an interview he was having that afternoon.
So, if you’d like to be heard, you can post on this thread (I’ll leave it open), PM me on Capcom-Unity or hit up my twitter (@chrissvensson) as many folks already have. I need some additional ammo and these requests fit that need.
Basically if you want that physical version of Phoenix Wright Dual Destinies then you’re going to have to let your voice be heard. I’m personally doing my bit to help by helping spread awareness via this post so hopefully enough fans respond in strong numbers that causes Capcom to reconsider a Phoenix Wright Dual Destinies physical release.
Oh and Capcom if we DO manage to get a physical release, can you be a little more careful with the typos. Thanks.
