Just yesterday, we reported on the upcoming Professor Layton and the Mysterious Village (though yesterday, silly us, we thought it was a town), and lo, a trailer has materialized. How convenient! And is it ever eye-poppingly beautiful. Level 5 seems to really have a potential gold mine on their hands with this one. Check out the trailer embedded after the jump -- we promise it will not disappoint! The Japanese website is also open, and after you wipe away the drool that's sure to dribble a little while you're watching the trailer, you'll want to stop by.Professor Layton and the Mysterious Village trailer

Looks gorgeous. Anyone know if it's based on an existing anime/manga? Just as well it doesn't look too text based too, as I doubt there'll ever be an English version, at least in Europe (for some reason, you lucky Yanks get manga-based/manga-style games, but rarely us).

I just hope that this game will be released stateside eventually, it looks very promising.

I'm sorry, but WHY does this game look promising? That was just one long derivative Manga trailer... and the gameplay in it looked quite dull. Come on, sliding tile puzzles? Is that the best they could showcase.
Now I believe they might really be able to make this game interesting by wrapping typical minigames in a new emotional packaging... but I for one am skeptical.
Still, it was pretty and all. And I liked the slowish pacing of it all. Felt a bit like Warioware waaaay slowed down I guess. But I'm still skeptical.
Oh and I liked the music. But I'm still skeptical.
Ok, where do I preorder?

I was going to answer you, Butch, but you seem to have done it yourself!
