UMVC3: Phoenix Wright and Nova Revealed!

OH MY GODDD

Phoenix is hilarious, I might have to work him into a team on the strength of that alone. *DEAD* at walking up to the motherfucking Hulk and hurting him by swatting evidence in front of himself.

Edit: Youtube comments are the best:

"Doom forgot to use his diplomatic immunity."
 
Did the exhibition matches get revealed simultaneously with the characters last times?

Is that good or bad?

I don't know. I want to see Thanos out of all names I mention. Also Juggernaut is okay too.

I would love to see Gambit, Jin and CapCom, but this is NEW ERA FOR MAHVEL SERIES!


I am so hyped for Phoenix Wright. I don't need to defend this character because I want people to hate him. More salts for me to beat them with Objection and Evidences!
 
Phoenix Wright is my new favorite character next to Hawkeye. They will be on a team together. Synergy or no. I don't give a damn.

Phoenix/Jill or Edgeworth/Frank West team in coming.

In fact, I'd love Capcom to make a Phoenix/Edgeworth if he appeared team combo level three that is exclusive to them and only 1-2 parternet setup for a team super combo. Make it the courtroom and objection, HOLD IT! OBJECTION! HOLD IT! TAKE THAT! *bam*

With Gumshoe, and Maya appearing.
 
OH, Nova's beam hyper takes out his red health and probably will do more damage based off of that. And Nova seems to be what I thought he would be minus the beam. But still looks fun to play as.

And damn he looks fast as hell.

Gonna make a run down of the characters in a bit after watching the NYCC trailer as well.
Nova:
-beam hyper
-rushing ground punch
-self OTG capability
-Meteor Smash style projectile that causes ground bounce
-Inferno style hyper
-Beast canon style hyper
-Sliding kick that travels fullscreen across the floor
-Can combo off ground grab

Just helping you along.

I love Nova but he looks pretty boring in this.
They really did dial it in with him lol.

Just because PW isn't a fighter and he does goofy stuff doesn't mean he's a joke character.
Joke characters don't have to suck either. They just have to be funny. In fact, sometimes it's funnier when they're good.
 
Not impressed by either. :\ Though Nova I just probably need to see more of...

The poster in the busted up FF stage is more interesting to me -- it looks like whomever is in the upper left corner doesn't have anything over the picture; who is that?

If you had said that an hour ago, I would of agreed.

after watching that video, I strongly beg to differ. Even if he is Dark Phoneix levels of broken and all the top players a evo use him..he is still a joke character.

From a fan service point of view, I can see why you guys are hyped...congrats but for someone who has never been into PW his inclusion is a waste of a slot.

You cant even argue he is a good character to troll with. MODOK has that area well and truly covered.

thats another point. He doesn't even seem funny....just out of place.
 
What's this thing that Phoenix is using to create fireballs(?)? Doesn't look familiar to me.

well there's just one thing left to do

play pheonix wright
 
Phoenix Wright reminds me of Norimaro crossed with Polimar from TvC. Polimar has to charge up using a special three times to do his Level 3, though he can also cancel those charges into special move strings. Phoenix only seems to use evidence as a projectile.

Cry more, dude.

The Magatama that Maya gives him in the first game, IIRC.
 
In the original MVC3 pre-release thread I remember a number of people strongly advocating against the "waste of character slot" bitching because every character has their fans. So that when you whine that character A should be in instead of character B, you're just telling fans of B there shouldn't be a game for them.

PW was destined to cause triple the bitching though because he's not a macho serious character, so no surprise there.

I do have to think though, in a game with now 50 (FIFTY!) characters, opinions aside it seems petty to actually gripe about all of one character being unorthodox.
 
His theme DOES get changed when he gets "powered up".

LMAO @ "nice view" after looking at Maya's ass in the hyper.

Wright is the ultimate gimmick character... so much that he has to have his own UI. He can be DP broken or worse than Hsien Ko at this point. No one really knows to be honest but he's clearly not an anchor character.

That Beast Cannon style hyper barely did any damage. :/

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here lol.

I hope he sips a bit of that top tier juice so the kiddies can cry.
 
Did Nova just combo off his own grab with what appears to be a full screen sliding OTG? Well fuck!

And People already calling Phoenix a joke character. Joke characters doesn't necessarily translate into bad characters.

Edit: Must be imagining things, but when Phoenix is all powered up his damage seems to go up, like XF1 scaling it seems.
 
Wright's evidence bar reminds me of Platinum. Though it doesn't seem to rotate which is a bit of a shame because that could be sort-of deep and have situations for the evidence with HOLD ITS! popping up to block a characters progress while Wright changes the evidence or something.
 
Seriously, what is with all this anti-hype shit doing in this thread? :P

This is Mahvel, you don't question or critique, you just get hype.

/joking because I know some of you would actually take this to heart... :lol
 
What does Wright trip on and why in the PW vs. Nova video?

Happens coincidentally when 1/3 of his evidence bar runs out.
