GDC08: Professor Layton watching over GDC

Nintendo's absolutely relentless promoting of Professor Layton and the Curious Village has shown no signs of letting up at the ongoing Game Developers Conference.

Siliconera's Spencer Yip spotted this giant rotating projector advert for the game looming over the North Hall of the Moscone Center (the GDC venue), and also reports that nearby bus stops are sporting their fair share of Layton ads. It's great to see Nintendo's American arm being so supportive of the game -- here's hoping all of this hard work reflects in the sales figures!

I also hope that this pushes Level 5:s popularity and allows them to make more awesome RPGs that get released and advertised outside of Japan. The PR for Dragon Quest 8 and Rogue Galaxy for example wasn't exactly massive even if DQ8 did get some. Level 5 deserves all the PR and sales they can get out of their games.
