    Well, they're good, but the first game is out on cellphones and I think they're going to start releasing PC episodes too, so...no. Unless you were wanting a DS anyways.

    PC episodes were japan-only, last I heard.
    Probably, but then again, it's Capcom. They port everything eventually. Never ever buy a system for a Capcom game.

    I'll wait on the inevitable Wii-pack of all of them, than.

    But either way, I'm shocked no one else has jumped on the bad-ass lawyer video game bandwagon. It seems like it's such an unexplored genre.

    I'm reminded of that comic in the manual where Gumshoe sets off fireworks after Edgeworth wins a case.

    Also, it's gonna be real weird seeing

    G U I L T Y

    And trying to be upbeat about it.

    This is great. I just got my DS a couple of weeks ago and I've gobbled up Phoenix Wright and Apollo Justice. It's good to have more of these to come out because there's a lot of wit and good writing in most of the cases.

    The JFA manual had a short comic to explain where all the confetti and doves come from for the not guilty verdicts. Well it was in the Japanese one at least.

    I don't think Perfect Prosecutor's the actual name, is it? The original Japanese in the Famitsu article translated into something like "Gyakuten Kenji" or something.

    I made a post almost exactly like this back on page 2 - can we get an answer to this, please?

    Gyakuten = Turnabout

    Kenji = Public prosecutor

    I'm not sure where the "Perfect Prosecutor" came from either. Mistranslation or reserved English name?

    The fact the outline for the dead body is right behind Phoenix Wrights office.

    So some think it might be....PHOENIX WRIGHT IS DEAD.

    Nah.

    You're right. Nah. They wouldn't kill off Phoenix Wright. Is the bottom map picture linked with the top one? Maybe this Mr. Eldoon is the one who was killed.

    BY PHOENIX WRIGHT.

    Let me be the first to state that I've not beaten all of them because I'm in Europeland and we've not got Trials and Tribulations (I'm intended to import it at this point). I am however excited about a game featured Edgeworth and more investigation and classic adventure controls are fine by me.

    It might turn out to be the English name, but if the title wasn't even mentioned in the Famitsu article or by Capcom, why are we still using it? The English name may turn out to be completely different.

    Wow this looks seriously amazing, maybe this'll get me more interested in the investigation part (it's always seemed to me as the more boring of the two). And YES! Import PW3+4 arriving tomorrow. I can finally catch up and discuss it with all the cool dudes8-)

    Objection noted, I'll be sure to invent English titles to new Japanese game announcements in the future. ;)

    Holy crap, neat idea for a game. And I'm looking forward to the comedy gold in the interaction between the two characters:

    Edgeworth: "Good lord Gumshoe, I've finally pieced together these obscure clues and come up with a brilliant insight!
    Gumshoe: Derp de derpa when's lunch?
    Edgeworth: ....you have the raw intellectual capacity of a trout, you know that?
