Capcom Sneakily Trademarks Okamiden, Ghost Trick In North America
Last Friday, Capcom filed U.S. trademarks for upcoming DS titles Okamiden and Ghost Trick. Until now, these games had only been announced for Japan. While this isn't an official U.S. announcement yet, it's certainly looking more likely now.
Unveiled at last year's Tokyo Game Show, both titles generated a lot of buzz. Okamiden is a cute sequel to Clover's PlayStation 2 white wolf RPG and Ghost Trick involves a dead guy solving crimes and helping people. Did I mention it's from the mastermind behind the original Phoenix Wright trilogy?
Check out the trademark text below if you'd like. Who's excited about these bad boys?
