It's a series that may not be as insanely popular as other Capcom franchises, but it's certainly no less loved by its fans. The
Ace Attorney series is about to get its fifth title - only in Japan thus far and no confirmed platform, no other details are available at present - but it seems like the developer is also interested in giving the series' roots some love.
Andriasang has reported that they've also announced
Ace Attorney 123HD, an HD remake of the first three
Ace Attorney games (back when they were called
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney) for iOS and other platforms.
The original has already been brought to iOS, but it was pretty much a straight port. Once this Turnabout HD is released (sorry, couldn't resist) anyone who owns this port can upgrade to the HD version. For everyone else, they can download the first two episodes/turnabouts for free then unlock more via in-app purchases. The prospect of digging into HD renditions of some of my favorite Nintendo DS games (all conveniently located in one place no less) has me very, very excited.
There's no confirmed release date yet, but Capcom says Ace Attorney 123HD should be available "shortly." Gotta love that intentionally obscure information.
