But for narrative-heavy games like Ace Attorney , the story is the appeal, and the risk of stagnation is that much greater. The great irony is that the backlash to Apollo Justice was never really about Apollo Justice. Phoenix himself drove too much of the plot, despite the fact that fans wanted to see Apollo and co.
A Japanese popularity poll of the characters in saw Apollo take second place, ahead of the other protagonists and behind only meme character Bobby Fulbright.
After that crossover with Professor Layton, Takumi went to work on a new spinoff duology set in the s. Early sales numbers seem to bear this out: the trilogy barely charted in its first week on sale in Japan. As for the next new game, who can say?
If we get AA7 in or , I want to see old characters from the original trilogy and Apollo Justice come back. This is why we long for it. I really have been longing for Ace Attorney 7! What in the world is happening with Capcom? The first 4 games of the series were masterpieces. Apollo Justice left a lot of questions bothering me and then, all of a sudden, feels like in Dual Destines the characters simply forgot everything that happened in AJ. Also, they brought Phoenix back just because, cause they never gave a good reason as for why he was readmited and could get the attorney badge back.
Is it true what Takumi said about AJ being his personal endpoint? It would be a perfect opportunity. But dai gyakuten saiban collection will coming in first quater of so ace attorney 7 might release on or I like them as they are.
Not ever game series needs to change dramatically. I demand a new Ace Attorney on the switch!! Every single Ace Attorney is such an insane journey to the truth, I can not get enough. Promise or not, I think Phoenix would have said something by now. I certainly would have bought them.
It is thanks to Bolt that I got acquainted with the Ace Attorney series! Thank you! I do so hope that Capcom will do something with the series sometime soon, and it will be something spectacular! Display Name. Learns to be an Attorney, his mentor is a criminal his best friend who was there during his childhood turmoil DIES, and he later reunites with his stepdad only to find out he's dead. Apollo can't have a father figure, even one that isn't at all related to his childhood without losing them Okay, let me put this as blatantly as I can.
Let's list their "tragedies". Apollo: Lost his sister, mother, father, step-father and mother and best friend. Criminal mentor. Phoenix: Mentor dies. Turnabout Sisters Keeps getting accused of murder ya think 4 times is enough Capcom?
Now, be honest, who do you think suffered more? I'd say Phoenix. Give Apollo time, but for now Phoenix has suffered the most out of anyone and rarely gets something for his services. User Info: TaylorHyuuga. Also, I still posit that the only reason people see Zak as a bad person is because he's a badly written character who does things that nobody would do in his situation and is given no reasons for it and is not portrayed as a bad person, so I argue that he doesn't count! Ahhh, useless, it's all useless -Battler Ushiromiya.
TaylorHyuuga posted Well we haven't seen her. The least Yamazaki could do is reference her like they did for Gumshoe in SoJ. And Zak was a joke. A dead horse joke, but still a joke nonetheless.
He's a badly written character yes, but he's meant to be that way. Yeah, but that's no reason to say she went to jail for life. Uuuuh, I'm sorry, what? Where is a statement by Takumi saying that he intentionally wrote him poorly? Saying that a character is intentionally poorly written is nonsense. Maya being accused of murder isn't exactly a tragedy because it ends up nicely every time and she's a big girl, knows how to deal with it. You're confusing the word tragedy with "dark".
You could argue Maya is more tragic than Apollo though I'd still say it's Apollo as she has more backstory than Nick and that is a rather grim and unfortunate one. However, she has Nick and she has Pearls like this little family. This tends to manifest when dealing with the eccentric characters including his friends , objects, and situations he comes across. Despite his usually relaxed attitude, he is a rather harsh critic when it comes to art, possibly due to his time as an art student, to the point of openly mocking his friends' art pieces on several occasions.
Wright has repeatedly shown himself to be a loyal friend and lawyer who will refuse to back down once his mind is made up. Known for this trait even in childhood, it has been a valuable asset for him, especially as it has translated into his dedication to defending and believing in the innocence of his clients. Wright's loyalty is such that he has often ended up risking his career, and even his life, for his friends and clients on several occasions. For instance, in the trial that got him disbarred , he showed calm concern for the fate of his client , even in the midst of allegations of fraud.
Drew Misham , in particular, was intrigued by this, claiming that despite Wright being the center of the problem, he was the only one who had not made a commotion. On the other hand, Wright's loyalty has clouded his better judgment on a few occasions. In university, he went through great lengths to protect his girlfriend, Dahlia Hawthorne, during his own trial , based on their relationship.
When his lawyer, Mia Fey, accused Hawthorne of poisoning Diego Armando and giving her bottle of poison to Wright disguised as a necklace, Wright refused to believe her and ate the necklace, though, fortunately for him, it had been emptied.
Even after the trial, he would conclude that Hawthorne was "not the woman [he] was dating", which would later turn out to be literally true. Years later , he attempted to cross a burning bridge in an attempt to save Maya, whom he believed to be trapped on the other side with a killer.
Despite Larry Butz begging him not to, Wright went as far as to push him out of the way to get to the bridge, which immediately broke, sending him plummeting down into the river below. In his university years, Wright was somewhat of a crybaby and a little childish, bursting into tears when Mia got angry with him for lying during his testimony.
His naivety manifested itself mostly in his relationship with Dahlia Hawthorne. His attitude at this time was somewhat comparable to that of his childhood friend Larry Butz, though the latter never really grew out of this behavior. Nonetheless, Wright was often considered the most mature out of all of his friends at the time.
In his earlier years as a lawyer, even after he had built up a respectable reputation for himself, Wright often depended on his former boss and mentor, Mia Fey, for advice. Even in death, she was generally available to help, thanks to the spirit channeling abilities of Maya and Pearl. At one point , Wright's morals were challenged when he was forced to choose between defending a guilty client to save Maya Fey or letting her die to see justice through.
Eventually, during the trial of Iris , Godot challenged him to argue his case without Mia's help, and Wright prevailed. Since then, Wright has become more self-confident and resistant to intimidation by his opponents, such as Gaspen Payne and Simon Blackquill or, at least, more resistant than Apollo Justice, Athena Cykes, and the judge.
However, Wright ended up underestimating Klavier Gavin due to the apparent gap in experience, and he paid for this by falling right into Gavin's trap and being exposed for presenting forged evidence, albeit unknowingly.
Wright has also become more eccentric and laid-back over the years, as well developing the habit of telling mostly bad jokes and occasionally giving cryptic advice, which at times irritates Apollo Justice. He also laughs more, and not as nervously as he did before. Often, when he is not in the heat of a trial, his actions and speech give off the vibe of the "omniscient old man" archetype in literature, at least externally.
Despite this, in the midst of a pressure-filled trial, his more excitable side from his earlier years as a lawyer rises back to the surface. His internal monologue also reveals that he has retained his private sardonic nature. During his disbarment period, Wright's morals seemed to be far more flexible, almost to the point of him adopting an "end justifies the means" mentality at times, as was demonstrated by his use of forged evidence in the Shadi Smith murder trial.
His rationale for this behavior was that he no longer had the responsibilities of a lawyer; moreover, people at the time thought he was a sham anyway, and so he had perhaps given up on caring what they thought of him.
However, he still deeply cared about those close to him, and he maintained contact with old friends such as Ema Skye, Maya Fey, and Miles Edgeworth. He seemingly did not hold any grudge regarding the loss of his badge, as one might have expected, instead diligently continuing his investigation of the case that had gotten him disbarred.
Phoenix and Trucy have a very close father-daughter relationship. He is extremely caring and protective of her, and, in turn, Trucy is very caring of her father. For the first two weeks after Phoenix was disbarred, he felt that his life was ruined and he started to act even more sardonically than usual when the loss of his badge was brought up.
Phoenix has stated that Trucy helped him make it through his disbarment period, referring to her as his light.
He always carries a locket with him with Trucy's picture in it, wearing it around his neck while disbarred and in his breast pocket after his return to the courtroom. Phoenix tends not to worry too much about Trucy, understanding that she is more than capable of handling herself and that she has Justice and Cykes to depend on if she needs help.
However, he did note he should more carefully watch what sort of magic she does after she proved herself to be proficient with throwing knives and often denies her requests to help with investigations due to her needing to focus on her schoolwork.
However, his more protective side was understandably more visible after she was held hostage by Aura Blackquill , leaving him scared about what was going to happen to his daughter.
As soon as he learned that Trucy had been arrested for murder , Phoenix frantically tried to get hold of Justice and Cykes, as he was out of the country at the time and thus unable to help her himself. However, he did calm down once they informed him they were taking her case and would save her. After the case, he called them back and after hearing that Trucy got a not guilty verdict, was immensely relieved to know she was safe. Phoenix has voiced his concern about Trucy's choice of magic props, namely her " magic panties ", especially since her magic shows involve her displaying said panties to strangers.
However, he claims that he does not want to say anything regarding the issue to her, partly because he has let her get away with it for so long that he does not wish to spoil her fun, but also because he does not want to waste the "expensive panties" he brought for her. Wright was well known for his bluffing tactics and his unwavering determination in the courtroom , both of which he inherited from Mia Fey. Wright would often not know where his logic was going and would make a story up and back it up with evidence or logic as requested as he went along.
Nonetheless, depending on how much attention he paid to the court record , his version of the murder would usually turn out to be true eventually.
Wright has also used tactics that would be considered bizarre by many such as cross- examining animals , but which have regardless eventually led him to the truth in his cases. Wright has also occasionally tricked witnesses into implicating themselves for the crime in question. Wright was also known for the clever lines he delivered while making his stand, though one was stolen off of Mia Fey.
However, such tactics have given Wright somewhat of a poor reputation among some of his enemies, such as Kristoph Gavin and Furio Tigre. Nonetheless, he was generally renowned for winning seemingly unwinnable cases. Wright's disbarment tarnished this reputation, with the media being quick to call him a "crooked attorney", but regardless, he and even his law firm have been referred to as "legendary" in certain circles, even in the criminal underworld.
The judicial system was apparently forgiving enough to allow Wright to head the Jurist System Simulated Court Committee, even giving him the power to choose the case, jurors, defense attorney, courtroom, and even the judge used for the trial. Wright was at one point known as the "undefeated defense attorney" by some people, including Ema Skye , up until he eventually suffered his first defeat.
Despite this, his record was still considered impressive since most defense attorneys would struggle to get a single win in their entire careers. In Khura'in, Wright became known as the Fighting Phoenix due to being the first defense attorney to appear in court in many years and win two murder trials despite the supposed infallibility of the Insights. Apparently, the top tastes as bitter as defeat but the bottom is as sweet as victory; Starr has suggested to "be careful not to eat it backward".
According to Starr, it is popular with kids around exam time due to its turnabout theme. Wright is known for his unique spiky hairstyle, which he claims is natural. This has prompted various nicknames over the years, many of them disparaging e.
His eye color is currently depicted as dark blue, but this has varied between different artwork and in-game assets. During Turnabout Memories , he wears jeans, a red scarf, and blue striped shoes with his initials on them, along with a pink sweater that Iris knitted for him, which also includes his initials.
During Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney , Wright wears a dark hooded jacket, black pants, sandals, and a blue hat with a yellow shocked face and the word "Papa" in pink.
He also keeps a locket with Trucy 's picture in it around his neck. After he regains his badge, he dons a suit similar to his old one, albeit with the addition of a light blue waistcoat and the locket in his breast pocket. His hair seems to have grown more spikes as he has matured. During Turnabout Memories , his first chronological appearance, he has three spikes of hair on each side; during the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy , he has four; and from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies onward, he has five.
Phoenix Wright and Franziska von Karma were originally supposed to be playable characters in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars. The main reason Wright was ultimately cut was that localization would enlarge the "Objection!
Producer Ryota Niitsuma later expressed a desire to implement Wright into future Capcom fighting games. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds downloadable characters if the game sold well enough. In said ending, Jennifer Walters She-Hulk's alter-ego becomes the host of a courtroom reality series entitled "Jen's Justice", which co-stars Wright and Edgeworth. When she accidentally smashes the judge's bench with her gavel, both lawyers can be seen cowering in fear.
The ending can be seen here. Phoenix Wright was confirmed playable in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 when a character profile image of him was accidentally uploaded onto the game's website.
He has three styles of "combat" to switch from: " Investigation Mode" is focused on finding clues to use against his foes in court, represented by three document folders. Wright can discover either legitimate evidence or junk which can be thrown away with each piece of evidence having its own effects, such as varieties of projectiles or even pieces of meat that can be used to restore health.
Wright can also call on Maya Fey as an assist to protect him while he searches for evidence. Missile can also be used as a throw as well as an assist whenever Wright is not active. Large speech bubbles act as attacks that stun Wright's opponent if they connect three times in a row. Once Wright has gathered three viable clues, he can go into his third mode, "Turnabout Mode" by using Questioning. Upon doing so, the stage's background music changes to the Pursuit - Corner the Culprit theme, Wright's special attacks become much more powerful, he gains access to his signature finger pointing which releases ghostly pointing fingers that possesses juggling abilities, his projectiles become faster and stronger, and he becomes able to use his Level 3 Hyper Combo, "Ace Attorney".
For this attack tied with Vergil 's Dark Angel as one of the strongest Hyper Combos in the game , Wright accuses his opponent until they break down , dealing massive amounts of damage. When playing in the game's "Simple" mode, Wright will only have access to the Investigation and Courtroom Modes and cannot collect any evidence, therefore locking out Turnabout Mode. As is standard with fighting games, Wright has a number of alternative costumes that reference other characters in the Ace Attorney series, namely: Miles Edgeworth, Dick Gumshoe, Larry Butz, and Godot, as well as a downloadable "Feenie" costume featuring his attire as a college student.
At some point during his original career , Phoenix Wright was approached by the Legal League of Attorneys and asked to take part in a business exchange trip to London.
He agreed, and so set off for England accompanied by Maya Fey. However, not long after arriving, Wright was asked to defend a mysterious student called Espella Cantabella on charges of theft and assault. Although he had not expected to be defending anyone during the exchange, Wright took the case and not only proved Cantabella innocent, but also revealed that the person she had been charged with assaulting was a jewel thief.
However, not long after the case was over, both Wright and Fey were suddenly transported to the mysterious medieval town of Labyrinthia that Cantabella called home.
Once there, the trio lost all memory of their previous meeting, with both Wright and Maya also losing their memories of their previous occupations and lives, instead believing they had worked in the local bakery alongside Cantabella for the last five years. It was at the bakery that Wright and Fey would first meet Hershel Layton and Luke Triton , who had also been transported to Labyrinthia. Despite having no memory of his former life, Wright once again found himself defending Cantabella in court, albeit this time for murder and being a witch after she was accused of using a fire spell to burn to death two thugs who had attempted to mug her.
In the process of proving her innocence, both Wright and Fey regained their memories. The pair then decided to team up with Layton and Triton to solve the mystery behind Labyrinthia.
However, it did not take long for Fey to get herself into trouble; whilst investigating the death of an alchemist that had occurred three months prior, she found herself under suspicion of being a witch after Layton was apparently transformed into a gold statue.
Although Wright was able to prove Maya's innocence , Cantabella then admitted to being the "Great Witch Bezella " in an attempt to stop any more people being executed as witches; if Bezella was killed, then there would be no more need for witch trials as she was the source of all witches. However, while freeing Cantabella from the cage that would be dropped into the flames below, Maya ended up switching places with her.
Pinned down by knights , Wright could only watch in horror as Maya was dropped into the fire pit used for executing witches and seemingly killed. After being asked by Heihachi Mishima to defend him on charges of smuggling illegal substances, Phoenix Wright and Maya Fey traveled to Japan and headed to Kamurocho, where they had agreed to meet. Whilst waiting, however, the area became infested with zombies. The two were eventually rescued by Mishima and the yakuza Goro Majima but were forced to retreat down a nearby manhole as the number of zombies increased.
The manhole leads to Makai , where Wright eventually met up with Demitri Maximoff and Morrigan Aensland , who agreed to help the duo return to the human world. After rendezvousing with the rest of their group, Wright and Fey were attacked by Baby Bonnie Hood , who was under contract with Shadaloo to kill Wright before he could clear Mishima's name. As the others would be unable to effectively fight off any enemies and protect them at the same time, Aensland supercharged Fey's magatama with spiritual energy, thereby allowing the relatively normal pair to defend themselves against powerful opponents.
Hood was eventually forced to retreat, and the group safely made it out of Makai. It was here that Reiji Arisu and Xiaomu , members of the special organization Shinra, revealed a threat posed by rival organization Ouma that would have dire consequences for the world. Although initially refusing to assist them, Wright eventually relented after an enthusiastic Fey pointed out that Hood was still after them and that they could use the protection.
Eventually, Arisu, Xiaomu, and their allies were able to defeat Ouma, thereby allowing Wright and Fey to return to their old lives. Not long afterward, the two were invited to a reunion at Maximoff's castle alongside all their allies.
During the party, a fight broke out between Heihachi Mishima, his son Kazuya , and grandson Jin Kazama , which they agreed to settle in a three-on-three fight. Wright failed to realize until it was too late that he had been selected to fight on Kazuya's team, much to his dismay. A page from the Kodansha Comics manga , translated into English.
