Tomorrow, people will flock to the stores, snatching a copy of Phoenix Wright 3 most likely, and on the corner of a shelf (granted that it has corners) will lie a value title by the name of Spanish for Everyone, the 2nd DS game that I had part in it.

I wasn't the lead on this one, but I did pen the "storyline" and the characters. In the end, there were some minor script tweak (mostly the withdrawal of some of my Shakespearian conversation,) but most of the stuff remained.
Production time was short, very short. Right now you're imagining a time frame, and it's most likely shorter than that. However, I think that with the time and constraints we had, we did the best we could. So in the end, it won't be your next Nintendogs, Super Mario or Brain Age, but if you pick it up and have questions about certain stuff design-wise or concept-wise, then it'd be nice to hear. It can probably also serve as what can be done with a value title (for instance, the box art was not ours)
and I CANNOT answer any questions at the moment.
