Back in 2011, there was news of a little game called Professor Layton VS Ace Attorney. A shiver of excitement roared through the fan base. The cheers could be heard across the Nintendoverse…then there was silence… That silence has finally been broken by Ace Attorney creator Shuu Takumi when he stated that the progress of the upcoming 3DS game is nearing its end.
