Professor Layton animated film coming to Japan in 2010
News related to our favorite top-hat-sporting riddle solver, Professor Layton, has been quite scarce as of late (we'd like that release date for Pandora's Box, and soon) -- that's why our attention was immediately drawn to a recent announcement for the good Professor's box office debut. Yes, Level 5 recently began promoting Professor Layton: The First Movie, an animated feature-length film which is currently set for a tentative February 2010 release in Japan.
Details on the film's plot are non-existent, but our hopes are high, as the animation featured in the brainteasing DS series is already gorgeous. Unfortunately, we're not sure we could enjoy the film should it make its way to the states -- we'd likely spend most of the movie scouring the silver screen for glimpses of precious hint coins.
