[hmm... there doesn't seem to be a current thread for this...]
Yesterday morning, bright and early, i rolled out of bed and into my local game store to pick up the newly released Gyakutensaiban II. It was so shiny sitting on the shelf, so masterful... i bought it with glee knowing full well it had full english support included.
BUT...
Gyakutensaiban II not only has full english support, but includes the full english GAME. When i first loaded up my DS with the game inside, on the game selection screen it indicated the cart was "Phoenix Wright II: Justice for All", not Gyakutensaiban II as i was expecting. I'm pretty sure this is because my DS OS is in english, so it displayed the english title of the game.
When the title screen is displayed, you're given the option of Japanese or English.
It is complete english.. i have no doubt that the english dialogue presented in this game will be exact for the US release. In fact, they'll probably include the japanese version of the game as well in the US release.
Soo.....
If you love Phoenix Wright, and want Phoenix Wright II, it is out now. This is Phoenix Wright II: Justice for All. Only $30 at play-asia (http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-9g-49-jp-70-1iyq.html). The only reason i could think of as to why Capcom didn't have a world-wide release for this game was pacing. They are probably giving themselves time to finish the DS remake and english version of Gyakutensaiban III, since Gyakutensaiban IV will probably be released around March. Phoenix Wright II will be released in America in January 2007.

Anyways, so far Phoenix Wright II is just as beautiful as the first, though it's really more of an extension. more chapters of the same great characters, compelling story, and hilarity.
It does feature two new additions to the gameplay though.
a) During the proceedings, you present evidence to prove the witness is lying. however, now you can also present profiles as well. This doesn't seem like that big of an addition, but it comes in handy when you're investigating and want to know who knows who.
b) Mental locks.. or Psyke-Locks. When talking with people, some times they'll keep things from you, so you must break their mental hold on the information to get them talking.
When i originally heard about this, it sounded so dumb. But, it's basically using evidence and profiles to prove facts during the investigation phase of the gameplay. It works out pretty well. ^_^
Also... apparently you can unlock something, if you have the Gyakutensaiban II gba cart in your DS. I haven't tried it, but i probably will if i can find that cart for cheap.

So yeah... i put pokemon diamond on hold for a little while to check out phoenix wright ii, and now that i've started there's no stopping. I'll probably get back to pokemon once i finish phoenix wright ii.
And again, if you love Phoenix Wright, this includes the full version of Phoenix Wright II: Justice for All, not just english support.
Even when you save, each language has separate save files, so you can progress through each language separately.
