I love how Phoenix says he never really thought about why he presents it.
I hope the game sells enough for not only AA6 to be made, but also come to the west.

Didn't AA2 let you present profiles too? I remember shoving that into everyone's faces, but can't exactly remember if it was AA2 or AA3.

Yeah, that started with AA2.
For all the flak AA2 gets, it's introduced a lot of cool things - the health bar (instead of the fixed health "points"), the psyche-locks and the profiles being able to be used as evidence/etc.

Pretty sure AA6 will be made, it sold extremely well in Japan. The question if it will have some degree of success in the west to push Capcom to localize it.
I think there was a huge missed opportunity for a great line by Apollo in this game. Present that badge to someone and he says. "I AM APOLLO JUSTICE AND I AM A FINE ATTORNEY!"
I think AA5 is doing well on the eShop charts if that's anything to go by.
Both AA2 and AA3 did. It was a pretty a nice feature. I liked how in AA3, you could present Phoenix's profile, which usually led to funny results. I always made sure to do that to everyone, in addition to the obvious "show Attorney's Badge to everyone" option.
I AM APOLLO JUSTICE AND I'M FINE.
Aw, I love Apollo. He's so adorable. I was always sad that he got so much hate for AA4.
It's kind of bad but whenever Apollo starts going into that whole speech and then shouts about it I can't help but think of this
Then I cringe.

I didn't like AA4 for an entirely different reason that has hardly anything to do with Apollo. It's mostly the fact the cases in his game are almost all pretty bad imo. I only enjoyed the first case of that game. The others were too convoluted or just plain silly.

damn, that case 4 ending
by the time the fingerprint results were coming around, i had figured that it was going to be one of the key players, but damn, i wasn't expecting that...
i was thinking it was gonna be apollo

Nothing will ever top the convolution of AAI Case 5.
The victim is killed with a flower that's actually a knife, then dragged along from the neutral part of the embassy to Country A in a hot dog cart. Then a fire is started in the Country B side, such that the body is thrown into a well, which lowers when the fires are put out. Then the body is transported, the well is filled up again, and the killer goes into his office, fires a crossbow, using a ceiling fan as a pulley, and sending two gigantic statues flying through the air. THEN, he bashes another dude's skull in with said statue.
Good lord.

I believe the phrase "extraterritorial rights" was mentioned at least fifty times in that final confrontation.
AAI case 5 is the only case in the series I've never been able to force myself to beat more than once. It's so ridiculous and bad.
God, I need to go replay that case again. It's ridiculous because it all makes sense when Edgeworth is explaining it.
You're just jealous of his rocket head.
The part up to

I really love Apollo, too. Like, Phoenix is the coolest, but I feel like I identify more with Apollo for whatever reason.

kinda stuck at case 3
What to do?
Trial vs Means, he's talking about Juniper dragging him into it all, asking him to get her declared innocent, meeting her in the audio lab while the fake speech ran etc.
What to do?
This is when his last statement is that he'll defend her because it's humane, right? If he wanted to defend her, why did he give Hugh a certain something that made her more suspect ...? :O
That character is also in the dlc case.

That's true, but I meant that I would have preferred to not know of their existence if the first time they appear is the last case. Would have been much more of a surprise.
Not gonna read that spoiler because I haven't played AAI.

Mouth breather.
If anyone called me a mouth breather in real life, I would probably need an ace attorney.
Why did I say "tale" instead of "tail" I'm dumb

The new prosecutor looks cool but I don't like him (so far).
Godot stays unbothered.

Godot has been dethroned. Open your eyes to the truth.
Halfway through case 1, not terribly impressed so far. Question about the very first piece of evidence you present:
When did they take that photo of the bomb next to the stuffed animal if it was inside the animal when it blew up? Did they take the photo and put it back in? Wut? Unless this gets explained later...

The witness will henceforth testify truthfully under penalty of a painful bird attack.
I love this series.

Wut. The bomb was evidence for a different case, so the photo was made for that case. The bomb exploded during the trial of said case.
vv Sorian explains it better.
It was taken out to take a picture at the beginning of the trial that it pertained to originally. This happened after all of the evidence was brought to court that day but before the trial actually began. It was then put back in so that it could be presented as it was found at the crime scene.
Godot will never be dethroned. Best prosecutor this series had and ever will have.
Pfft, I don't even see how this is possible with Edgeworth around.
Oh it's going to be so satisfying to breakdown fucking golden boy into tiny itty bitty pieces
I don't even know if he's the real killer or not. I just want to see him SQUIRM
Edit: I'm not even going to consider this a spoiler because at this point all of the ace attorneys are douchebags. You know if someone takes the stand you are going to break them down.

Okay, so I finished the game. And then I went back to look at the each case's title art. And I noticed the "Chapter Select" option. It's.... it's so beautiful. That means I can just play the trial sections if I want to on replay.
Oh, and I think my favorite bit in this game? Case 5 Spoilers:

They explained the black Psyche-Locks. That is my absolute favorite thing.
