I’m kinda bummed about the 3-episodes thing as well. The Japanese version has so many eps, I sure hope the bonus content will be serious, proper-length cases and not some little mini-games or something.
Nevertheless, I’m soo dying to play this – it’s a totally awesome game (I LOVED the gba version although it’s only in Japanese) and they’re right, we need more of this genre in the US. I’m totally getting this as soon as it comes out in June.

3 episodes? The Japanese version has 5 old episodes and one new DS case, AND 6 superdeformed casesâ€¦.

According to the Nintendo Power, you open bonus content. Maybe these extra cases are the bonus content? I sure hope so. xD A total of 12 cases is real big.

I, too, thought there would be more than 3 episodes. I saw a screenshot and it had the old episodes from the NES games like Ash said. I don’t think they will change that. I wish I could play “Kind of Blue” — it had such a sweet intro! Oh and please change the location back to Tokyo. It’s not as if you’ll have anyone under the age of 13 purchasing this game, who is unaware of where Tokyo is located, or would even care that it’s in Japan. Oh and don’t forget the smokes!

Well if the game really is 15 hours im thinking of getting it, was afraid of the length to begin with but this interview helps a lot

I’m glad more publishers are giving niche genres a chance in North America. Hopefully we’ll get more Visual Novels, Point & Clicks, Dating Sims, etc. As soon as the bigger companies realize that there will be a market for all different types of games, the better.
