Capcom’s classic DS game, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, might possibly be heading to the Wii if Germany’s recent USK rating is to be believed. The game has been listed for Nintendo’s white waggle box, meaning that players may very well be able to enjoy the defense attorney’s adventures on a home console!

Rating boards like the USK and ESRB are often good sources of game information, and have revealed many games in the past. It’s possible that this new listing is a mistake and was categorized for the Wii by accident. However, it’s been very rare for these rating boards to steer us wrong, so while it’s highly possible that mistakes could have been made, it would certainly be unusual.

The game was ported to the PC in Japan, so we know that Phoenix Wright assets exist in a more massive resolution. It shouldn’t be a big deal to create a Wii version, either for retail or as a WiiWare download. All signs point to it being a remake of the original game, which is no bad thing, considering it’s kind of awesome.

Would you want to play Phoenix Wright on the Wii, or should it remain on the DS?

Let’s kick off the evening with a double shot of Epic Mickey news. First, a quote from designer Warren Spector from an interview with 1UP: “I don’t do anything that isn’t extensible. In my head, I’ve got two more planned.”

Whoa whoa whoa. An Epic Mickey trilogy? But what about Duck Tales? “In the business world of reality, those games haven’t approved, and who knows if we’ll ever see them.” You had me there for a second, Spector. If the game stays true to the original vision, and plays decently, this could be a very good thing.

And before we get too far ahead of ourselves, The Cut Scene has an interesting tidbit about Mickey’s dialogue in Epic Mickey. As Spector puts it, “I made the creative decision that characters wouldn’t talk in the Cartoon Wasteland.”

“If I’m trying to re-introduce this character to an audience, there are certain connotations with that voice that I’m going to have a hard time overcoming.” This was one of the few things that I couldn’t stop thinking about when the game was announced.

Speech bubbles were the way to go for this project, if you ask me.
