More On: Professor Layton and the Unwound Future
Puzzle fans everywhere can rejoice today as the release date Professor Layton and the Unwound Future has been pushed up from September 20th to September 12th.  This time around Professor Layton will be trying to prevent "London from plunging into chaos" and maybe even figure out the weird Batman/Robin relationship he has with his younger assistants.  I enjoyed the first game and it now looks like I have even less time to purchase and finish the second game.
The future will arrive sooner than expected for fans of LEVEL-5’s acclaimed Professor Layton video game series. Nintendo of America has announced a new launch date of Sept. 12 for Professor Layton and the Unwound Future™, a new hand-held adventure created exclusively for the top-selling Nintendo DS™ family of portable game systems. Previously scheduled for release on Sept. 20, the game will now be available a week earlier, treating newcomers and experienced players alike to a mesmerizing mix of mystery, time travel and puzzle-solving fun.

Professor Layton and the Unwound Future places the professor and his trusted apprentice at the center of a spellbinding adventure after they receive a strange letter sent from 10 years in the future. Players must wind their way through more than 165 mind-bending puzzles as they decipher clues and strive to unlock a time-twisting mystery that threatens to plunge London into chaos. Featuring richly rendered graphics and an engaging storyline, the Professor Layton game series has sold nearly 1.4 million units in the United States.
