Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney

Good review. A little hard on the graphics really. The sprite animation has certainly improved since the GBA conversions, and the sprite detail is also better.

Case 4 spoiler

True, but it's by no means the leap I was expecting anyway...a couple of extra animations and some slightly more vibrant colours are not quite what I expected at all.

Perhaps my expectations are just too high then, but to me it looked like they'd simply spruced up the old sprites rather than recreating the characters from scratch...Don't get me wrong, though, as I love the artistic style and the animations are bloody hilarious, adding so much to the game. I'm talking purely from the stance that the DS ports and this purpose-built DS game at first glance do not look too different. Sure, analyse the two together closely and the differences will become apparent, but without checking, I didn't even notice anything had changed at first!

Anyway, hopefully this will do better than AA: PW and AA PW: JfA did in the UK...

I hope so, otherwise there\'s no hope for a T&T release in UK. NoE has taken it off their site, bad news.

EDIT: Now I feel bad for not being able to help, since I was impatient and imported, as I\'m sure many others did

Capcom still has it down on its release list, along with Harvey Birdman for Wii, so it'll likely come in Q4 2008...hopefully at a budget price!

Einspruch...!?

I'm gutted you don't get the snazzy artwork for each case when you complete it. Then again I've only completed the first case so I may be missing something.

Definitely a big WHYYYYYYYY!? from my part.

Oh yeah, I was gutted about that too. And yeah there aren't any at all, sorry.

Hahah, same. I swear I must have stared at the screen for a good 20 seconds thinking "Where is it? Where's the cool artwork? Where's my beautiful reward for finishing the case? " Traumatic times indeed.

I woulda liked a nice pic of Ema punching Klavier in the face. That'd have been awesome.

They prolly wouldn't have done that anyway, but you know what I mean.

There are quite a lot of things Capcom should have included but didn't, such as unlockable artwork or even the soundtrack...Seems an opportunity missed, to be honest.

Did the reviewer miss the fact that you can \'pause\' the perceiving process, to glance around the witness body without having to hurry before the paragraph in question runs out?

I think the answer would be 'yes'. But that still does not make the process any more fun, to be honest and wouldn't have bumped up the final score. Thanks for pointing that out, though.
