Professor Layton and the Mysterious Villiage --official

[Compass]

Release date on the official site and GameFAQs is just a few days from now, the tenth (a Sunday, which is kinda weird).

I'm day one'ing. Who's with me.

[YellerDog]

I am in love with that. Triplets of Belleville + any 1980's Japanese animation retelling of literary classic style = ^_~ l'est-ce que, desu ne? I hope the gameplay is more than those little puzzles.

I'm excited about this one too.

[mannerbot]

Wait, this is just a puzzle game? Ugh.

Edit: Looked around GAF for a minute. While it is indeed just a bunch of puzzle games with cutscenes in between, apparently it's done very well. I'll wait for impressions.

[YellerDog]

Way to backpedal.

[mannerbot]

In my own defense it's not much of a backpedal. I just went from "Puzzle game? FUCK YOU!" to "Oh, I guess that could be kind of fun."

[Finch]

The GAF'ers like it. They usually like good things. Like Romancing SaGa. THAT'S RIGHT, LIKE ROMANCING SAGA.

[Glass Joe]

I'm day one'ing. Who's with me.

I am.

[YellerDog]

Moment of truth, day-one bullshitters. Did you?

Apparently they've already got DLC up for this thing.

[Compass]

Calm down. I'm picking it up after work.

[YellerDog]

Surrre.

Anyway, the game is utterly charming so far.
