IMO the major misstep with Phoenix getting disbarred is that, unless I'm mistaken, it happens maybe a couple of months after 3-5. The least they could have done was to space it out 2-3 years to have Phoenix have even more of that seasoned feel, maybe even using more of the smug sprite against Klavier before dropping the hammer.

Godot’s grudge was over at that point, if he found out he was probably real devastated that somebody he ultimately accepted as carrying on Mia’s legacy turned out to cheat.

I’ve got the mental imagery of him laying in his deathbed, realizing that today’s the day, making peace with it, and asking to see the news one last time for comfort’s sake...

Going by the Court Records twitter, they were using never-before-seen localized names for Great Ace Attorney characters and terms though, so that’s probably a good sign.

this is so long removed from the present day games that the wright family would have time to move to like five other countries before settling to america by the time of them, so i don't think it's much of an immersion problem really

I will never get over how perfect of a localization choice "Herlock Sholmes" is. :allears:

Also “Phoenix Wright is Japanese-American” is the obvious and easy localization choice, especially given that the explanation from the localization team for Japanifornia is “there was more Japanese immigration to California and the immigrants were more accepted than in reality”.

I wonder how many people had heard the Doyle estate might be leery of using the Holmes name, and immediately thought "no biggie, just introduce entirely original character Herlock Sholmes." I know I thought it, and I saw at least three unrelated posts suggesting the same.

When you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however obvious, must be the truth.

Yeah it's not particularly hard to believe that a Californian man has a Japanese ancestor.

ChaosArgate posted:

I mean it's less a "choice" and more of a legal necessity. But yeah I think it sortof works given the character and tone.

Still, it amuses me that they didn't change the name at all. I halfway expected them to change Naruhodo to Hinotori Laito or something.

They still had the choice of what to rename him, so they went the double-literary-reference and cribbed Maurice Leblanc's solution for the same problem from a century ago.

Obviously Watson decided to change the names when it came to publication so that the stories aren't clearly about real people.

Sherlock Holmes might be a fictional literary character in that universe just like he is in ours. Maybe it's parodying Herlock Sholmes, the guy that actually existed!
e: That Lisa Mc.Rad tweet put it even better.

Anyways excellent news all around. These games deserve an international release.

Motherfuck. I can't wait to finally play these. I'm glad I didn't jump through all those hoops to play a fan translation on the worst console (3DS) or the worst gaming platform (Android).
