WhileGhost Trick: Phantom Detectivewas a hit back on theNintendo DS, it seems that some players may have given up hope on getting their hands on a copy that they can hold in their hands. Will this remastered version of an excellent puzzle adventure have a physical copy, or will we have toSoul Jumpinto our console of choice to play this one?

However, if you’re in the States, you won’t be able to just walk into your favoritebrick-and-mortarstore to purchase this one. If you’re hoping to get your hands on it, you’re going to need to employ the help of a site likePlayAsia, which has copies available forPlayStationandSwitch, but unfortunately nothing forXbox owners.This could be due in part to the lack of demand for this particular family of consoles in the region.

For collectors and those looking to have something that will likely triple in value over the years, it almost goes without saying that you should consider snapping one of these up before they inevitably sell out once again. Plus, if we want to finally get a sequel to this game, we should consider snagging up four of five copies each. Kidding… unless?
