Anyone here play Phoenix Wright besides me? :/

If so, discuss!~ [Ace Attorney, Justice For All, characters,etc.]

[Zerxer]

Yes! Dark Knight got me to download get it the other week. As soon as I beat it, I will get the next one. I play them on my DS. The 3rd one is coming out on DS in September, also.

[Guest_Dark Knight_*]

I did get him to get a copy of it, because they are awesome games. I've been playing them since the GBA originals however, so I'm waay ahead of you guys. In Japan they're on four games, with the fifth coming out soon. Benefits of speaking Japanese and deliberately seeking out (then) obscure games.

I did play the DS English remake of the first game (the first game made specifically for the DS was actually the fourth game, which is only out in Japan at the moment), since it has the extra trial tacked on the end of it, and I have to say I was less than impressed with that additional bit. It stood out, since it simply wasn't as well written as the trials taken from the original. I'm quite glad that the second and third DS remakes don't have another bit put on the end, out of sequence with the storyline that runs through all the games in continuity.

[Bosco]

I'm thinking about getting a copy.. how does the gameplay work?

Here's a YouTube Vid that shows the gameplay but be warned, it might spoil what happens in one of the games. *not going to watch it myself*


Oh and, here's a funny video I found. xD

Liar Liar: Phoenix Wright Style

I'm currently waiting for the third game to come out in English. Been a fan of it ever since my friend let me play his copy.

Also, Phoenix Wrong.

Uh I've played Gyakuten Saiban too. : P Watashi wa, nihongo wo hanashimasu~

Yeah I'm looking forward to getting the 3rd one this September~

I heard you get to be Mia for a case or two~ 8D


... this is random but what did you all think of Director Hotti?

[Guest_Dark Knight_*]

Self-proclaimed director who isn't a real doctor, likes to gossip, and is generally obnoxious. Has pink hair and missing teeth. What are you expecting to hear? That we all think he's witty and sexy? I actually like his Japanese name more than his English one. Roughly translated it means "we will overcharge you", whereas his English name is clearly a play on words of his obsession with hot chicks.

And not bad, your "I speak Japanese" is pretty good apart from the grammar. Your sentence more literally translated means "I, speak Japanese". I personally would have said "watashi wa nihongo wo hanasemasu (I can speak Japanese)", or at least 私は、日本語を、話します。, but I have a kyuu-2 and like to show off in kanji, heh.

[Zerxer]

I haven't gotten to see Director Hotti yet. I'm only on the uhhh 4th case maybe (whichever is the original last case before the tacked on DS one) on the first game.

*eats your spoilers*

[Guest_Dark Knight_*]

Yeah, Hotti is on the second trial of the second game.

[Zerxer]

Okay, I'm really curious about something now. After the second chapter, I believe, on the first game, Maya started calling me "Nick." Now, that is my real name so I was thinking "Hey, maybe she got the name from my DS" but now I'm not so sure... I'm on the 2nd to last trial (the official last before the tacked-on DS final trial) and she had screamed my name in front of that one camera like "NIIIII .... IIIIII .... IIIICK!" and I was like "Okay, that's weird if the name was just placed..."

Then later, she was like "Nick knows Santa? St. Nick and Nick.. Hey, I see a connection" and I was just like "What the hell? Does she mean the names?"

So now I'm curious, is the name Nick actually scripted into the game (and WHY) or does it actually get your real name from your DS and if it does, then what did she mean by a connection between St. Nick and Nick and how did she scream your names?

[Guest_Dark Knight_*]

Nick, it's scripted. Nick is PhoeNIX's nickname. And that's just a lot of nickers.

Darn.. That confused the hell out of me.

[Big Bidoof]

This game's really addictive. I'm up to the third part of Maya's trial, I just finished the first day in the courtroom.

It is, but as the game progresses, it makes you do more crap out of the courtroom. Investigating is the worst part ever.

[Guest_北海の鬼_*]

The English DS remake of the third game is out today for all you suckers who can't read Japanese.

I'm still on the last case of the first game; I always stop playing a game right before the end and jump to another game.

[I DON'T HAVE JAPANESE INSTALLED SO I SEE SQUARES CRAP FTW WHERE IS MY DISC?!] ...Grammar?

I was taught to write that way because it's PROPER JAPANESE [Or something. I dun even know how to use Waranai or what ever. Everything I was taught is proper and formal and what ever.]. My teacher was strict.So you're telling me the way a Japanese lady taught me to write is incorrect? :0

Hanasemasu? That's a new one for me. ... I need you to teach me more. xD I dropped the class starting Sophomore year since I didn't care about taking the language anymore at school. [I take spanish instead this year FTW AT ME RIGHT?]

EDIT: Jeez TRIED TO EDIT THIS IN LAST NIGHT BUT THE LAMERZ SPIRITOMB KEPT POPPING UP AND I WAS LIKE NO GO AWAY NOW LET ME EDIT. AS I AS SAYING~ I like to show off Kanji too. I was ahead in the class, I knew about 70+ more kanji than the other students knew [They only knew 1-10, nani, Sensei... yeah. That's pretty much it.]

DAMN IT I HAVE NO MONEY HOW AM I GOING TO GET PHOENIX WRIGHT 3?! I HAVEN'T EVEN REQUESTED THAT THEY SAVE A COPY FOR ME YET. CRAP CRAP CRAP~~ ... Which case was the hardest for you guys? I had the most trouble on that circus case in the second PW~

[Liquefy]

I've been searching desperately for the first one ever since it came out in the states but, you know, the people in my state are a bunch of dumb hicks who probably can't read, so there are no copies due to low demand *nod*

No, seriously though, I've NEVER seen the first (fourth, whatever) in any store in my area. The newest one is there, but sadly no first. I eventually just spent the money I've been holding on to for it and since I've done that, someone will have it -_-

Uh.. I'm going to guess since you're posting here that you DO have access to the internet. Why couldn't you just order it off a game store's website? Get it shipped in from another state. Hell, buy a cheaper copy off eBay. :|
