The agreed-upon crown jewel of the Ace Attorney series, Trials and Tribulations allowed players to act as three different attorneys throughout the game while also bringing back important characters that make sense in the plot, rather than “just because." If being able to play as Mia Fey wasn't enough to earn first place on this list, then Phoenix Wright's college backstory most certainly is.
In this game, players act as a new character, Apollo Justice, representing a passing of the torch from Phoenix to his “apprentice” figure. This signalled that Phoenix’s saga had come to a close (or so it seemed to indicate), and players were able to see characters grow and evolve during the 7 years that had passed since the last game.

While at school, they worked as a radio show host playing video game jams during the prime studying hours of 12-2 am. Having played over 700 hours of Pokémon Emerald, they are a true lifetime fan of the series.
With many fans expecting a sequel to Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney (and many fans disliking the new character), Capcom took a very different route. The first main series game on the 3DS, Dual Destinies arguably has one of the most fantastic soundtracks for a 3DS game, with renowned composer Noriyuki Iwadare at his best.
A welcome addition to the series, Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth is the first full game to feature Miles Edgeworth as a protagonist, a complex character (and fan-favourite). Having been playable for a short period in Ace Attorney: Trials & Tribulations, it was almost inevitable that Edgeworth would receive his own series of games. The prosecutor's inner thought process is a delight to watch.
Another hidden gem of the Ace Attorney series, many have played Ace Attorney Investigations 2 through the outstanding fan translation available online. Not only is this another Japanese-exclusive game in the series, but it also stands out as another sequel better than the original.
Justice For All is a worthy sequel to Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, though it excels in different ways than its predecessor. The intrigue of Edgeworth's disappearance combined with the introduction of a new Von Karma creates a curiosity that can only be sated by pouring over every word of the game. Akemi Kimura does a phenomenal job composing music for every mood and scenario, leaving a lasting impression for weeks afterward.
Ace Attorney began in 2000 as the brainchild of Capcom’s Shu Takumi. A long-time mystery fan, Takumi came up with the concept of a detective game told through the lens of the legal system: players would take on the role of a defense attorney, collect evidence and clues, and uncover contradictions and lies by matching evidence to testimony. Over the course of a year, he and his team assembled Gyakuten Saiban (“Turnabout Court”) and released it for the Game Boy Advance in late 2001. The game was a surprise hit, and a pair of sequels quickly followed, turning what was meant to be a one-off into an impromptu trilogy. In 2005, the game came to the west as Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney as part of a series of DS re-releases. The game was a sleeper hit, and translations of the second and third games were also greenlit. In the process, the games spawned a devoted fanbase and hefty amounts of fanart, fanfic, and memes — you couldn’t go two feet in 2006 without tripping over an “Objection!” bubble.
In 2016 Capcom released a sequel: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice. Much of the marketing push this time focused on Maya’s return as Phoenix’s assistant.
Barely a year after Apollo Justice hit shelves in Japan, Capcom announced a new team would be developing a new sub-series: Ace Attorney Investigations. Starring fan-favorite prosecutor Miles Edgeworth, the game would be carefully set in the two-month gap between Trials and Tribulations and Phoenix losing his badge. Joining Edgeworth was a parade of familiar characters, major and minor, and more references to Ace Attorney apocrypha than one could shake a stick at.
According to the leak, Capcom plans on announcing a localization of its Great Ace Attorney games, with the reveal happening this coming April and a planned June 2021 release date for PC, PS4, and Nintendo Switch. The two Great Ace Attorney games, originally released for the Nintendo 3DS, will be bundled together for $40 ...

Another Ace Attorney project mentioned in the Capcom leak is an Ace Attorney Collection for both the PS4 and Nintendo Switch. Apparently, Japan fans can look forward to a bundle that brings together both of the Great Ace Attorney games as well as the original Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy.
Originally released in 2010, Ace Attorney Investigations 2 would be the only Ace Attorney game to never be localized if the leak is accurate and the Great Ace Attorney games are indeed getting an English release. However, with Capcom bothering to localize the Great Ace Attorney games, perhaps it could finally be convinced to bring this game ...
This case was released for this service on March 16, 2010 in Japan, May 24, 2010 in North America, and May 28, 2010 in Europe, and has since been featured on every release of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney to date.
It is one of the longest episodes in the Ace Attorney series to date, spanning three investigation chapters and seven trial chapters and having the player carry more evidence in the court record than in any other episode in the main series of Ace Attorney games.
Episode 5: Rise from the Ashes is the final episode of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. An extra episode for the Nintendo DS version of the game which also saw an international release, it was not present in the original Japan -only release on the Game Boy Advance.
She introduced herself as Ema Skye, a junior in high school and an aspiring scientific investigator. Wright learned from her that her older sister had gone to the same law school as his late mentor Fey had, a few years above her.
During the recess, Gumshoe handed Wright a book called "Evidence Law". It contained the two rules when submitting evidence to the court, with a message from Lana: "if you want to take HIM on, you're going to need this book".
Back at the Wright & Co. Law Offices, Ema revealed that Neil Marshall had died saving her from Darke, leaving the evidence necessary to convict the killer, and that it was her own testimony that had helped to seal Darke's fate. Talking to Ema, Wright discovered that Lana had been a detective two years ago, and that she had become Chief Prosecutor after SL-9. Wright decided to talk to Lana, discovering she shared an office with Gant and that all of the people related to this case were related to SL-9. Wright couldn't believe it was a coincidence.
She said she had done it all by herself, including moving the body. She said she had done so because there were broken jar pieces on the floor, which would have led back to Ema. However, Wright pointed out that Ema's name was written in blood on the jar. If the jar had been broken by the time Lana found it, no one could have written Ema's name on it after it broke.
When game designer Shu Takumi first concocted the idea for Ace Attorney, his enthusiasm was not shared by his coworkers. When he described that the crime-based game would feature a lawyer, instead of the common detective archetype, his coworkers feared the game would be bogged down by courtroom procedures.
Perhaps the best known feature of the Ace Attorney series is the "Objection!" exclamation that has become synonymous with the franchise. As to be expected, these memorable shouts are typically provided by professional voice actors. However, for many games released on the Nintendo DS, character exclamations were actually provided not by actors, but by the Capcom staff. These weren't small roles, either; Capcom translators voiced main character Phoenix Wright and primary antagonist Franziska von Karma.
However, Roger Wright was eventually scrapped. The translators feared Roger Wright sounded too similar to Roger Rabbit, star of the animated film Who Framed Roger Rabbit?. To prevent confusion, the team settled on "Phoenix", a very unique name with a ring of heroic quality.
Takumi's pet Pomeranian Missile was the inspiration for the crime-solving pup. Strangely enough, while the real-life Missile is a Pomeranian, the virtual incarnation of the pet is a Shiba Inu breed .
5 Larry Butz: Almost a Pain in the Butz. Love him or hate him, Larry Butz, best friend of Phoenix Wright, has been a staple of the series since his appearance in the very first case of the franchise ( The First Turnabout). However, Larry was not initially intended to make an appearance in the introductory case.
Certainly a heartwarming story, but few know that this childhood tale is loosely based on Shu Takumi's own past.
Franziska von Karma remains a fan-favorite character, reappearing many times after her first appearance in the sizable sequel Justice For All . Many fans of the game and character recall her breakdown sequence, in which the confident and ferocious prosecutor suddenly breaks down crying. This attitude turnabout struck many fans as charming, but this entire sequence was added as an afterthought. When Franziska's sprite was intially designed, Takumi asked illustrator Tatsurō Iwamoto to create a crying sprite for the character... although they never planned on using it. Iwamoto, working with an unfinished script and the bare minimum of information about the character, designed a childish blubbering for Franziska.

The gameplay is split into two types of sections: investigations and courtroom trials.

The localization of the first game was outsourced to Bowne Global, and was handled by the writer Alexander O. Smithand the editor Steve Anderson. While the Japanese version takes place in Japan, the localized version is set in the United States: because one of the episodes involves time zones, they had to specify where the game takes place, and chose the United States without thinking a lot about it. The Japanese justice system of the original still remained intact in the loc…
The Ace Attorney series has been well received by critics, and has performed well commercially: in December 2009, it was Capcom's 9th-best-selling series of all time, and in October 2010, they called it one of their "strongest intellectual properties", with more than 3.9 million units sold worldwide. By December 2013, the series had sold over 5 million units. In the United States, the first game became surprisingly successful, forcing Capcom to prepare at least three additional r…
