Capcom holds Phoenix Wright 3 contest

Capcom just released Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Justice for All for the DS last month, but the publisher is already holding a contest surrounding the possible localization of the next installment in the series.

Over on the official Phoenix Wright forums, an administrator has posted details about a new contest in which Capcom wants gamers to make the case for bringing a third Phoenix Wright game to American shores. To participate in the "Ace Attorney: Plead Your Case" contest, gamers need only download a template of a comic book page and empty word bubbles, then combine them in creative ways to explain why Capcom should bring the game to the US. Three winners will each receive a pair of Phoenix Wright figurines and a collectible pin.

When asked to confirm a US release for the next Phoenix Wright game, a Capcom representative said, "We have no announcements regarding future Ace Attorney games at this time."
