UMVC3: Phoenix Wright and Nova Revealed!

His face could use a little more animation in close-ups. Looks somewhat dead without his crazy expressions. I guess it's no different than other characters in this game.

That bothered me too, feels like watching a poorly dubbed kung fu movie.
 
So he seriously has 2 themes? (Can't use sound here.)

Can't believe the one thing I had on my wishlist came true. :)

I see what you did there. Troll initiated.

edit: lol 3 quotes in a row, troll success!
 
Alright since people missed my earlier posts:

Nova's beam hyper consumes his red health. Watch his intro vid: So means more damage more damage it does.

His OTG punch is an overhead.
His charge moves seem to have some projectile invulnearability to them.

Just to let people know.

So far...

I like Phoenix' theme more than Nova's theme.

Nova's beast cannon hyper looks way too weaksauce for a guy with such meaty sound effects on contact. He better have 1 million health. He looks preeeety good otherwise.

Nova's ground walk/float seems very very fast. Am I the only one who noticed that?

Cannon hyper looks like a Maximum Wesker that doesn't get stuffed out by a fly appearing in front of him. Damage wise it also looks similar but the seeming invincibility on it looks like its best quality.

Nova's beam hyper consumes his red health. Watch his intro vid: So means more damage more damage it does.

Interesting.

Is it just me or does Thor look faster in the Nova vs Phoenix Wright video? His tridash looks faster than it used to. Could just be me or the video, though.

He literally has charge moves? With the motions?

Seems like a fair enough trade I guess.

The "I ALREADY DON'T LIKE THIS CHARACTER HE SUCKS" stuff is hilarious.

The only people who have played the game and talk openly about it seem to prefer him and it's not like you can even judge how the metagame is going to play out six months after release, much less a month before release.

Dude, people are judging how he LOOKS in game for the most part, not how he plays. We are not allowed to judge aesthetics now?

There was a discussion point a while back on how people pick their characters based on aesthetics.

I think him and his moves look lame. My opinion. Maybe he plays awesome and win EVO, who knows.

It's not the end of the world, and people are free to love him.

Everybody doesn't have to love him and everybody doesn't have to hate him.

Yeah, Cornered kicks in when he is in ass kicking mode.

I like that Maya throws the confetti from when you win cases at the end too.
 
That Maximum Nova is basically his "utility" hyper. I see it like Jill's gun hyper, it has invincibility on it and it goes all over. It has uses outside of just doing raw damage for which he has that Nova Force hyper and the Beam on the ground.

I am really hoping Nova's hypers can be linked in some way. Aside from Spider Man, the other characters in the game who don't have LVL3's usually have some ways to link their hypers together (like Sentinel, Taskmaster, Spencer).

I hope so. Odin knows he needs some buffing.

Thanks for reposting.

Caught that last two points but whoa that's interesting. Beam hyper does a fuckload of damage though.. Nova Inferno not so much.

Your butthurt is delicious. I'd love to see them nerf Dante, Vergil-clone and Strider and have Phoenix and Jean Grey/Dark Phoenix teams totally break the game just to hear you cry more about this "waste of a character slot. BAWWW BAWWW BAWWWW."
Click to expand...

Its got nothing to do with butthurt. I don't like the character, but it doesnt effect me so whatever.

Even If Dante, Vergil and strider were the worse character in the game, Id still play them.

Likewise even if Phoenix is the weakest character in the game, id still say he was a waste of a slot, maybe even more so.

For the ultimate joke, they should put 8-bit Mega Man and Aero (MML3 Girl).
 
When I say charge moves I mean his Gamma Charge esque moves. Sorry. The pseudo dashes were going through Wright's evidence. So he either gets projectile invinvibility or gains projectile status like Thor's Mighty Strike does for Thor.

EDIT: His intro vid. Arthur was using goddess bracelot at the end when he did Maximum Nova and he went through it.
 
The ultimate troll would be regular Mega Man DLC rather than X, proving Capcom hates X with a passion by never including him in anything ever.

Oh god...

Edit: @ Grecco: Combofiend to style with Phoenix confirmed? :P
 
WHY DOES MAYA EMERGE FROM PW'S LAP? I only played the first game, why is he laying down then boosts her off of him, looks weird as hell.

Also, who is Aero?
 
I don't like Phoenix's voice. Objection/Take that should sound like the real deal.
Also cornered theme was playing in the background already.

Still, maybe I should consider picking up this game.
 
Haha awesome, Phoenix wright has Maya and Missile the dog assit :)
He's pretty much what I expected for him and more, they even included the Judge gavel hyper we speculated on!

Also Megaman not slain or apprehended is interesting...

also I just realized that stage is a redux of the final fight stage, completing the old stages re-done stupidity.
 
Nova looks pretty plain to me to be honest. He looks like he'll be good just not all that new or different.

Phoenix is awesome but that voice doesn't do it for me at all. I'm also surprised at no Gumshoe, Franciska, or psych lock specials.

Looks like she falls on him and then he becomes surprised and frightened, because off she goes trying to fight for him.
