Capcom’s TGS Stage Live Stream Will Include Ace Attorney

Last week, we discussed Capcom’s Tokyo Game Show plans in regards to the Capcom Spotlight to be held on September 16.

Since it’s a Capcom Spotlight rather than a Capcom Showcase, the chances of them announcing a new game are pretty slim.

However, while that’s the only event they’ve announced on their English site, the same isn’t true for Japan. Capcom also has a stage show with events that will be streamed on September 19, 20, and 21.

While most of these events are focused on a specific game, the September 20 lineup includes a more general event called “Capcom TV!!”

The description on the site only says that they’re going to discuss the Switch 2 version of Devil May Cry 5 and Monster Hunter Stories 3. However, Capcom’s tweet about this event also lists the Resident Evil games coming to the Switch 2 and… Ace Attorney.

I’m not sure what to make of this. Ace Attorney is the only thing listed that doesn’t specifically say it’s about a Switch 2 version, and there’s no new Ace Attorney game for them to discuss. It almost has to be something new, whether that’s a new game or something else related to the series.

Now, there is that other little matter… For this next part, I’ll be discussing a potential leak, so don’t read it if you’ve been avoiding leaks and don’t want to see it.

Click for the recent leak
So earlier this week, there was a huge Steam achievement leak that revealed achievements for upcoming and even unannounced games. This included an achievement list for Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. After seeing that, I expected a remaster of the crossover to be announced during the Nintendo Direct. When it wasn’t there, I assumed it would be at Level-5’s showcase the next day. It wasn’t there, either. That opens up the potential that this will be announced by Capcom at TGS.

I’ll be a little disappointed if that turns out to be the only announcement, but either way it looks like TGS might have something in store for us Ace Attorney fans.

Do you think Capcom will announce a new Ace Attorney game at TGS?

Miscellaneous Highlights

With the last of the showcases behind us, I’d like to mention a few other games that stood out to me from the smaller showcases. First up is Moonlight Pale, which was included in the Latin American Games Showcase. It’s a survival horror game, and it has an absolutely gorgeous art style.

Next up is Threads of Time, which was shown during Day of the Devs.

It’s a beautiful turn-based RPG that deals with time travel both in its story and its gameplay. I’m really curious about this one.

Now, the India Games Showcase was an unexpected standout, and I have no less than three games I want to highlight from it, starting with Abashed.

Abashed is a 2.5D psychological horror game that looks really good. I’m not sure where the story is going, but I’m intrigued by what they showed.

Then there’s Project Foxx, a fun-looking action game.

I’m having trouble finding the specific trailer that was played in the showcase, but here’s an earlier one.

Finally, there’s a new trailer for Raji: Kaliyuga, the sequel to Raji: An Ancient Epic, and I was impressed by it. It’s a dual-protagonist action game, and it looks like a huge step up from the first one.

I enjoyed the first Raji, although I found the ending disappointing because it felt like it was setting up for a sequel, and now I’m looking forward to that sequel.

These are a few of the games that stood out to me from amongst the showcases. What are some others games that caught your eye?

Nintendo Direct Set for Tomorrow

A Nintendo Direct has been announced for tomorrow, after being widely expected to happen sometime this week.

Nintendo often holds a Direct around this time of year, especially since that means new games announced at the Direct can be shown at TGS (which begins next week).

This Nintendo Direct will be 40 minutes long and focus on games coming out this winter. Of course, while that’s the Direct’s focus, wording it that way often means they’ll also included a handful of announcements outside of that timeframe.

A few things have been leaked, including one that will make me happy if it’s true, but with 40 minutes to fill, I hope they have some exciting surprises in store. I expect we’ll hear more about some of the games announced in the previous Direct, like the untitled Princess Peach game, and maybe the Baten Kaitos remastered collection since it’s actually out tomorrow.

Of course, I’d be delighted if anything from my list of TGS hopes made an appearance.

(Fatal Frame VI? Anyone?)

While there are also plenty of rumors around about the Switch’s successor, I don’t think they’d include an announcement that big in a regular Nintendo Direct like this. That feels more likely to get a special announcement sometime next year, while this will focus on Switch games ahead of the holidays.

Maybe my dreams will come true and they’ll announce a Xenoblade Chronicles X remaster. Either way, I have my fingers crossed for exciting trailers.

What do you think will be announced at tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct?
