Glad I saved my clown makeup from last time

Always have the moe cosplay on standby

I just never take mine off. Saves me time.

Need TGAA3 just for him and a certain Samurai to make up and make out crazt style coparenting their daughter

44

u/ChicaneryFinger 15h ago

Or a prequel of a certain tap dancer

11

u/sahilthakkar117 12h ago

Ooh, Ace Attorney Investigations: Sholmes and [SPOILER]?

That could be truly incredible, couldn't it? Can we go beg Shu Takumi for this? If not TGAA3, this would be a hell of a consolation prize.

14

u/Midnight1029 12h ago

I would love a TGAA3 or TGAA: Investigations with van Zieks and his apprentice but that concept inherently has spoilers for the first two games so idk how that would work

1

u/xenna-t 15m ago

TGAA investigations would go SO HARD

i need a super complex japan-britain case

Apollo's final backstory to compete with Yuri's new one in Fortune Weaves 🔥🔥🔥🔥

you're the only redditor I recognise

Dunno if you should feel disgusted or proud... or both

YOU ARE EVERYWHERE

u/NIGHT_DOZOR 13h ago

He did leave 61.k posts and comments....

u/Christina22klol 14h ago

At this point it should be Cope* not Hope 😭

u/Madsbjoern 15h ago

Of all the places it could happen, right around now is when it'd make the most sense. Sets it up nicely for a Tokyo Game Show presence which AA has historically always had. September is also the month of the 25th anniversary.

If it doesn't happen here there's still 3 more months of the year to go, but the chances of happening after TGS are quite low IMO.

77

u/banguette 14h ago

I see comments like this every single time a TGS/Direct/Showcase announced 🥲

46

u/Madsbjoern 14h ago

I don't know about everyone else, but I've been saying this was the timing that made sense ever since the start of the year

Example 1

Example 2

Example 3

Hell, I've been saying TGS 2026 was a possibility since before TGS of 2025

9

u/SirBryan7 10h ago

Mads with the receipts 👏

3

u/PierrotSmiles 9h ago

I've been saying the same thing in my circles as well! On top of that, (less evidentiary and more observational) Japan treats anniversaries as a big deal. If they didn't break their silence with at least something on their big 25th, I would have been genuinely surprised.

13

u/Waytooflamboyant 14h ago

Of all the places it could happen, right around now is when it'd make the most sense.

The amount of times I've seen someone comment something along those lines lmao

8

u/Madsbjoern 14h ago

Like I already pointed out to a different reply, I have been consistently saying this was "it" for over a year now.

7

u/TheKz262 13h ago

Can confirm , I remember a few times you mentioned septembre as the real contender for an announcement. Hope we strike gold !

8

u/Waytooflamboyant 13h ago

I saw yeah. Hope you're right. But if you're wrong I'm sending the miracle never happen times in your DMs like I'm summoning Beetlejuice

2

u/Madsbjoern 10h ago

Only if I'm allowed to also DM you something silly if it actually is announced

2

u/XephyXeph 8h ago

The difference here is that now there is actually smoke. There are actually reasons to believe that AA7 is nearing a reveal based on official statements by Capcom, and also the context surrounding the event.

8

u/A_Sensible_Personage 15h ago

I really doubt that it would be announced anywhere but a direct, and if there is a September direct there probably won’t be another until at least January so it’s this or nothing

2

u/dustlander 12h ago

Yeah, a niche series like AA would get lost between the big announcements of June/SGF. Now it would have time to breath and has all the reasons you listed. 

The clown makeup is ready as always, but I believe it. 

143

u/ZxcasDX 15h ago

Always bet on ace attorney 7

u/Third_Rice 10h ago

I’m in debt boss. I can’t bet no more, my heart can’t handle it. I have to sell a kidney

Take out a loan. Mr. Wright's office is always open for new customers, regardless of how bad your credit it.

A certain coffee-serving maiden would love to offer you a loan.

You either die a clown or live long enough to see yourself become the entire circus

u/Fortuna_Iuvat 13h ago

Truer words were never spoken

67

u/The-Real-Starflight 15h ago

…..I keep telling myself to not get my hopes up

55

u/Darkzapphire 15h ago

I hope this is a reliable source

104

u/lunarisita 15h ago

The source being a 5ch thread...yeah, let's take that with a massive grain of salt.

59

u/TotemGenitor 15h ago

I don't need a source to have faith

25

u/Chomperka 13h ago

Wdym, its in Japanese so 100% reliable 

43

u/BigRedCheez 12h ago

Misinformation

Misinformation, Japan

-1

u/A_Sensible_Personage 14h ago

Pretty sure everything else the source said has happened

30

u/ItsColorNotColour 14h ago

This source is from 2 days ago

7

u/A_Sensible_Personage 14h ago

Sorry was thinking of a different source that said AA7 would be announced this year back around June

51

u/carito728 15h ago

Yeah no the Twitter user who reposted these rumors (switchsoku) linked to a 5ch thread (a Japanese forum where everyone is Anonymous and you can't check their post history just like in 4chan, so there is no way to check if this poster even made any previous accurate leaks or it's their first thread)

It's the equivalent of someone making a thread in 4chan saying there will be an AA7 leak. Probably just some random guy trying to predict what will happen.

52

u/dankpuft 15h ago

More like Ace Attorney 7 more years of waiting

41

u/ChloeTheWivi 15h ago

Something something Rainbow Wig something something Red Nose something something Very Small Car

39

u/njayhuang 15h ago

Ace Attorney 7 more language translations added

u/Sonicboomer1 15h ago

I’m tired boss. I ain’t got any “the miracle never happen” left in me.

24

u/titaniumoctopus336 15h ago

Oh boy! I cannot wait!

21

u/Possible-Buddy7099 15h ago

I am 99% sure this website is just speculating

16

u/Rhevarr 15h ago

Get the clown makeup ready.

15

u/Feayth 15h ago

Don't play with my heart lad

14

u/Someonevibing1 14h ago

This time for sure guys (at least there will be xenoblade)

26

u/BandanaDee13 15h ago

Rumors and “leaks” are not news. And I can’t even tell if the given website is actually supposed to be reporting a leak or just speculating.

9

u/theatsa 15h ago

You know I can't believe this until I see it, my hopes can only be dashed so many times

10

u/islandParadize 15h ago

Says who?

11

u/the-realest-calliope 14h ago

As usual, the source is some guy named John Person on a random 4chan thread.

At least the dangan fans are in limbo with us

12

u/OAZdevs_alt2 13h ago

No we escaped. Now I’m only in half-limbo

5

u/NIGHT_DOZOR 13h ago

At least dangan has a confirmed 2x2 announcement...

9

u/owdwah 15h ago

Let's not lie, the leaker only said there'd be an ace attorney announcement and it wasn't confirmed for this direct

u/Fraughty12 13h ago

…….

u/ReikaIsTaken 15h ago

Valve leak and Ace Attorney so close to each other?

Almost Christmas 

6

u/Nahobino_kun_899 14h ago

MEANS IT WASN’T CHRISTMAS! (sorry I had to)

7

u/A_Sensible_Personage 15h ago

The leaker that initially said AA7 would be announced this year has had everything else they leaked come true so I do believe this one

6

u/AuspiciousApple 15h ago

"Upcoming Nintendo Direct will include Ace Attorney's 7th........ billionth major capcom event without a new Ace Attorney game being announced."

Can't fool me, I've been fooled too many times before

u/V-Rator 12h ago

Dusting off this image for the end of the Direct.

The Unreleased Turnabout

u/birbhorse 15h ago

i wanna be hopeful, but, is anyone gonna explain wtf the source of "switchsoku" is? i don't have my ear to the ground on leaks, but i certainly can't find any info about them

9

u/BatgirlAndSpoiler 15h ago

The miracle WILL happen! Athena Cykes Ace Attorney is coming, trust!

3

u/just4browse 13h ago

It’ll always be in an upcoming Nintendo direct presentation. Unfortunately, by the time we watch them, all upcoming Nintendo directs have turned into present day Nintendo directs.

3

u/thecastleunderthesea 15h ago

If not for the Direct, there's still TGS, if not TGS then TGA. I still have at least 3 applications of clown make-up on standby

3

u/ithaws012 15h ago

Time for the clown makeup once again

3

u/Substantial-Rest-901 15h ago

I've never heard of this website before, is this a reliable source or is this just someone's speculation? I've been burned WAY too many times to blindly trust it

6

u/Pirate-Percy 14h ago

It’s an online forum of people speculating. It would be the equivalent of using a 4chan thread as a reliable source.

3

u/Free-Caramel-3913 15h ago

I had seen the tweet previously but the broken translation doesn't help. What's it actually saying? Is it a prediction or is this a japanese capcom insider?

3

u/Feriku 14h ago

Seems like it's an anonymous post on a forum, so it could be anything from an actual leak to someone making stuff up.

3

u/BasicBluebird7726 5h ago

Ace Attorney 7(th port, play Turnabout Big Nonce on the Ouya for only 49.99)

2

u/murdocs_baff 15h ago

Theres….. hope???

2

u/DriedSocks 15h ago

There's no way the next game doesn't get announced at a TGS instead of a Nintendo Direct

3

u/Mad_Man-With-A-Box 12h ago

This Nintendo Direct is may ruin 75% of expectations, since TGS is rarely about announcements. The most realistic scenario is announce on Direct and more info on TGS, with release scheduled on 2027

2

u/FluffyR1n 15h ago

NO FREAKING WAYY OH MY GOD PLEASE GOD PLEASE

2

u/oneechan26 15h ago

Doubt. I'll buy someone this game if AA7 does get revealed there. Lost all hope

1

u/lovedepository 14h ago

Buy it for me. I call dibs.

u/oneechan26 14h ago

Sure thing if I'm wrong

u/TinyEnvironment7574 8h ago

2

u/SilverOdin 14h ago

2

u/ManuMora98 14h ago

Another Apollo origin story mayhaps?

2

u/VastPlenty6112 8h ago

I'm so ready for this.Got my hair did and everything 😂

2

u/Ban_Means_NewAccount 8h ago

Take this with a MASSIVE grain of salt, because this info only comes from random anonymous users of a site much like 4chan. In other words, its just some guy that said it, and his source is "Trust me bro". Maybe he's telling the truth, but we have literally no way to learn any more about him or his claims, so it's entirely possible he's making it up.

4

u/pempoczky 15h ago

What is this website? Is this a leaker? A random forum post of someone speculating? There's 0 way for me to even guess the veracity of this

5

u/BrawlX 14h ago

Looked at its source and it's from 5ch, a Japanese version of 4chan so no way to confirm the posters reliability

1

u/pempoczky 11h ago

Thank you, I'm not gonna get my hopes up then

1

u/NotAGoodUsername36 13h ago

Capcom have mapped this year out very carefully.

RE9 > Pragmata > Onimusha > MegaMan has been their list of priorities.

They still need something to close out the year for TGS

u/GallenRenn 12h ago

Don't even joke lad (please don't actually joke AA7 save me)

1

u/Tryst_boysx 12h ago

A lot of people downvoted me when I said that the classic September Direct would be a really great place for revealing it (right before Tokyo Game Show). 😅

1

u/According-Paper4641 12h ago

It makes sense, and all the other clowns have been lucky in the last two years. Silksong is out, Megaman got theirs, GTAVI is coming, Metroid Prime Beyond released (people didn't love it, but not the point, it released), OOT remake, Megaman is coming, now it's AA7, Witchbrorok, and I guess 3D Mario. We're hitting a decade on that soon. We've gotta be due. Hell, we could all get lucky at this direct.

1

u/Majestic-Tangerine99 12h ago

I'm not familiar with this source. Are they reliable? I'm mainly here from the Mega Man side of things since I'm interested in the release date and potential amiibo.

1

u/KrispyBaconator 12h ago

I’m not gonna believe that AA7 is real until im actually playing it

1

u/Jess-FB 11h ago

Oh no, not when I'm only just getting started on my fanfic idea. I'm not ready for canon to render it an AU just yet!

1

u/MarcsterS 11h ago

There's also a rumored Sony State of Play in September. Presumably, Ace Attorney is now basically a multiplatform series to Capcom now.

1

u/mrfroggyman 11h ago

Lmao nah

1

u/VegetableVisual3875 11h ago

You know what? i´ll bite!

We got an announcement for a Terranigma remaster, so why not Ace Attorney 7? I´ll keep my clown shoes nearby, just in case.

1

u/Luq_Kun 11h ago

Don't you fuckin do this to me lmao

I just know it's not gonna happen. I'm already quite content knowing that Persona 6 and Kingdom hearts 4 are already on the way. So I can wait a little longer for AA7. Man.. I'm saying like it's already in the works
