This Mother's Day, I bought my mum a DS Lite and a copy of Brain Training. I wasn't the only one. But what about Father's Day? Dad's not going to be impressed with something constantly reminding him how old he is. More »

"Shocking Announcement" Coming From White Knight Chronicles Dev?
Level 5 isn't just the developer of the recently dated White Knight Chronicles for the PlayStation 3. No, they've got Dark Cloud, Dragon Quest VIII and the Professor Layton series under their belts to name just a few. That's why, when the Japanese developer says, according to Gamekyo, that it has "shocking" announcements planned for next week, we start to wonder. More » -

Japanese Phone Gets Prof. Layton
Poor mobile games. Always the hope for the future! Always the laughing stock of the present. And fair enough, too. Cheaply made, rubbish to control, the vast majority of mobile games are a waste of everyone's time. Oh, unless you're Japanese, and pick up a Panasonic p906i. If you do, well, you'll be able to play Professor Layton. In widescreen, no less! And if you can't be arsed counting matchsticks, there's a nice-looking Gundam game on offer as well. Can have in West, please? Kind of bored of my 4th successive phone with a Worms clone. More »

Professor Layton's DLC Broken?
It's great that Level 5's Professor Layton and the Curious Village got an English release. The weekly DLC is a nice touch as well! Bummer that folks are having online issues. Apparently, people are having difficulty downloading the game's weekly puzzle. They'll start downloading, but then get cut off and sent back to the menu without an error message. Over at the Nintendo Tech Support Forums, an administrator writes: More » -

First Professor Layton DLC Available
Japan's had Professor Layton DLC for a while now, so it's only fair that with the game's US release, Americans get a bag of those sweet, free crisps as well. As of now, the first of what should be weekly puzzle updates has been made available for download. I'm not sure how exactly it'll work as far as keeping your downloads, but it'll probably work out like Picross and allow you to save a certain number of puzzles to your cart. More »

Professor Layton M.I.A.
Professor Layton and the Curious Village was supposed to be playable at E for All. It was. Wired's Chris Kohler sadly reports that the localized version of the popular Japanese puzzle game was nowhere to be seen. Nintendo confirmed that it had been yanked from the E For All line-up. It was previously announced that the DS title slipped to 2008, and Nintendo's decision to pull the game at E for All shouldn't come as a surprise. Sucks, though. More »

Professor Layton Gets Sequel, Live Action Movie
More puzzles and pretty pictures! At a recent symposium, Japanese developer Level5 announced Professor Layton and the Devil's Box, the second entry into its popular Professor Layton puzzle series and out November 29th. With a theme song is by Japanese songstress Salyu, the game has players try to find Satan's box and solve riddles. Doesn't sound like a drastic departure from the first game. Here's the surprising bit: There are plans to make a Layton film. However! The movie will not be animated, but rather, live-action. The game has some truly beautiful animated sequences, and this decision seems somewhat odd. Level5 seems invested in capitalizing on the multi-media aspects of Professor Layton. At the press event, Pokémon series producer Masakazu Kubo discussed the importance of movie, manga and online incarnations of Professor Layton — something he definitely knows about! The series has been a monster hit for Level5. Now watch them run with it. Hopefully not into the ground. More »
