Professor Layton and the Curious Accents


The good news is that a new English-language Professor Layton and the Curious Village trailer has appeared, on GameStop's website, of all places, and it basically confirms that the American version of the game will feature full voice acting in its cutscenes.

The bad news is the voice acting.

We really don't want to cast any aspersions on what looks like a truly fantastic puzzle adventure game, and we don't want to suggest that the game is in any way bad. But we just can't let voice acting like this go by without comment. Apparently, Nintendo wasn't able to solve the puzzle of where to find people who speak with British accents.



[Update: the trailer has shown up on Gametrailers, and has been added to the post.]
