Ace Attorney - Spirit Of Justice (AA6)

This is an odd one. New Ace Attorney series director (who took over after Apollo Justice it would seem) Takeshi Yamazaki confirmed in December last year that Ace Attorney 6 is very much on its way for 2014. http://www.siliconera.com/2013/12/29/capcom-already-working-new-ace-attorney-game/

And this was right at the same time Shu Takumi also revealed that his new project (Which I've been very excited about after the great Ghost Trick and slight disappointment of what turned out to be a Takumi-less Ace Attorney 5) will also be shown off this year.

But wait! Shu Takumi is working on Ace Attorney again. http://www.siliconera.com/2014/02/13/original-ace-attorney-creator-working-brand-new-ace-attorney-game/

While I'm a bit disappointed we aren't seeing something new, could Shu Takumi be working on Ace Attorney 6 or a 'new' Ace Attorney series?

Since Phoenix has his license back I hope it involves him again either way

Ahhhhhh Fronk, I thought this was going to be some hard information! Way to get me excited.  

That said, I probably shouldn't get excited regardless, since we have no idea how likely it is to come out over here.

I'd be happy to have Shu Takumi back on AA in any capacity. Only the DLC case of Dual Destinies felt like 'real' Ace Attorney to me, so any input is good input.

More Shu is good Shu but it's rather see him do something brand new again. After AA and GT, the man is one of the brightest games makers out there.

Yeah, me too.

Though I think Ace Attorney 6 isn't the Takumi game, it doesn't make sense. The new team started work on AA6 after AA5 was complete, but it's been a while since Ghost Trick.

I'd love to see a new reboot/side series from Takumi, *not* a follow-up to Ace Attorney 5, which has been a disappointment for me.

BUMP! This is on its slow, winding way to the West! It features a non-Japan (which will translate to non-US) country, temples, and a "Water Mirror". No sign of any returning characters bar Phoenix yet, although the girl could be Jinxie Tenma.

I'll take more Wright in any way I can so I'm well up for this.

They've built up a number of different styles over the last few 'proper' AA games, and I'd be sad to see that fall by the wayside if that, indeed, is to be the way of things. Hopefully they're simply dishing out the dirt slowly and we'll see Apollo and the like return alongside Nick.

Presenting Chinese Winston Payne, psychic warrior not-Maya, and more Magatamas than you can eat! But seriously, there's never been a better scenario for Maya to make a comeback.

Mmmm... Magatama... :homer:

Still as keen on this as ever, especially if the Magatama gameplay is more heavily featured. It remains my favourite way of cracking cases.

Hey guys! Quick sort of related question, was trials and tribulations the first ace attorney game?

Trials & Tribulations is the third one, after Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Justice For All.

Cheers.

It's also widely* considered to be the best in the series.

*Andy and I both think so anyway.

I've just watched with subtitles: THE KINGDOM OF KURAIN. No way Maya's not making a reappearance!

I do too - though I also recognise that without the impact of the first one, I would never have made it to the third one.

It's true - the first one lays the necessary foundations for the third to shine.

We can all agree that JfA was highly variable, though, right?

Yes - despite carrying the most shocking moment of the whole series, in my opinion. And it spawned 'The Miracle Never Happen', if I remember rightly.

You mean

JfA BIG SPOILER:

Yes, I thought the last case was great. Bits of cases one and two weren't bad either (although Ini Miney...).

A bit belated, but the new prosecutor is this creepy gender-neutral person. I've seen someone say it reminds them of Kuja.

TriPo (save me somebody): look who's back.

I'll save you!

Though all I can say is that yeah I saw that she's back and in new get up. I haven't really seen much yet

Aww man! Best gaming news I've had since the reveal of Planet Robobobobobobot. It was a day one anyway but now...

Get hyped. September release. Great news. (Apollo's continued starring role, less so.)

Can we get a thread title change please administratorialators?

Title amended. Well up for this, of course - it might have leapfrogged Robobobobot into Second Most Wanted 3DS Game (ain't nothing shifting Sun & Moon, friends).
