Title: Why is Phoenix Wright a hobo in Apollo Justice?
Post by: CurseoftheGods on January 07, 2008, 12:55:58 PM: I am in the middle of Trials and Tribulations, and out of anticipation for the new game I watched the Apollo Justice trailer on YouTube. Wtf? Why has Phoenix Wright gone all gangsta? Without spoiling too much, does something really bad happen at the end of Trials and Tribulations? I need to know. :lol

spoiler (click to show/hide)
the magician sidekick of the new lawyer in Ace Attorney 4 is Phoenix's adopted daughter! WTF!
[close]

That's the only spoiler I've read. I've heard that people aren't liking it as much as the first 3, but I'm still going to give it a try.

I wonder how that works, the spirit is of legal age, but the body she's inhabiting isn't. Ah well, Phoenix is a defense lawyer I'm sure he could figure it out.

P.S. Franziska von Karma is hot. :-[

Post by: bork on January 07, 2008, 11:55:00 PM: Phoenix is a piano player at some bar in Ace Attorney 4. The reason why he quit being an attorney is in one of the cases in the fourth game, apparently.

If this is a pre-order bonus sign me up.

Hopefully it isn't just some Japan only thing like it probably is. :-\

I don't think it's a pre-order bonus since the game came out in Japan like 8 months ago.

I expected that keychain thing to be a plushy not a keychain :/

I was disappointed too. The promo picture was pretty misleading.
