Originally debuting in 1987 on the [[UsefulNotes/NintendoEntertainmentSystem Famicom]], various iterations of the series have sold over 2,220,000 copies in total, making it one of the longest standing and best-selling Japanese AdventureGame series.
The series had little to no American presence until 2008, when a UsefulNotes/NintendoDS remake of the first three installments featuring the character was translated in America as ''Jake Hunter: Detective Chronicles''. To put it kindly, it was a BlindIdiotTranslation and it came off as a DarkerAndEdgier rip-off of the ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' series and a poor one at that, making the chances of it ever catching on in the US slim. One year later, the three cases were re-released as ''Jake Hunter Detective Story: Memories of the Past'' with much better {{Woolseyism}}-type translations, three additional cases, six SuperDeformed mini-sodes, and a ton of unlockable extras. If you would be at all interested in the games, the 2009 release is the one to get. You'll thank us later.
