Hold it! Ace Attorney 4 ships 500,000; series ships 2 million
After managing to sequester the top spot of the Japanese charts with 250,000 in sales, Gyakuten Saiban 4 (Ace Attorney 4) has shipped a total of 500,000 units since its April 12 release. That puts the series up to 2 million units shipped worldwide.
Although the game -- the first in the series made specifically for the DS and the first without Phoenix Wright as counsel -- did not ship with an English language mode, such confidence in the series all but guarantees Capcom will push the title through its translation department and overseas. An English-language version of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorneys Trials and Tribulations is coming out in September.
