Ace Attorney Stage
Courtroom
Yeah, well, someone was going to submit it. So here we go.
The courtroom is the main place of gameplay in all Ace Attorney games, so it only makes sense that it would be the location chosen for Smash. This is roughly what the scene would look like, with the area in front of the stand and benches being playable. The 2 walls of the trial grounds floor will remain there, with both of those being breakable walls making walkoffs possible. It will be possible to go on top of those walls as well as on parts of the witness stands.
Battlefield/Omega - The battlefield and omega versions will be fairly identical to each other. The background will still include the judges bench and a court backdrop. The judge will sit in his stand and do nothing. The floor and platforms where applicable will be brown like the court floor
Cameos(Gimmick and Hazards included here)
The Prosecutor bench - Prosecutors opposed by Phoenix and co will appear at this bench. Some inclusions would be Winston Payne, Miles Edgeworth, Gadot, Franziska Von Karma, and Klavier Gavin. Prosecutors from games 5 and 6 may appear as well as well, I haven't played those yet so I don't know who they would be and don't want to look them up for spoilers sake. They may occasionally hit poses from their games aimed at the defense, which can cause damage and knockback to players. Edgeworth will shout "OBJECTION", which will appear as a speech bubble. Von Karma will use her whip, Gadot will throw his coffee cup, and Gavin will air guitar, causing sound waves that will pulse out from him. They can be influenced to do this by attacking them.
The Defense stand - The defense lawyers will appear here. Apollo Justice, Athena Cykes, Mia Fey, and Phoenix Wright himself(if not being used) will show up here. The judicial assistants, Maya Fey, Pearl Fey, Trucy Wright, and others I may not know about yet will be here as well. The defense will occasionally shout an OBJECTION, HOLD IT, or GOTCHA out towards the prosecution. If hit while doing this they will attempt to block the opposing bench from being able to damage players.
The judges bench - The judge will be present at his bench. He will be present and is interactable as well. After a period of time of the prosecution and defense being active the judge will bang his gavel and call for order in the court, which will stop both sides from doing anything for a bit. You can also trigger this by standing in front of the judges bench and performing a successful taunt.
The witness stand - Popular witnesses from the series will appear here. They will not be interactive. For spoiler sakes I won't list them right here. If leadership wishes to pick them out or if I need to add them later I can.
Again, we will conduct this via poll at the top of the thread.Courtroom
So I'm gonna submit my take on an Ace Attorney stage that borrows a bit from Minecraft World. The gimmick being that depending on button inputs, you can change the appearance of the stage. Let's go over the base appearance and its functions.
Ace Attorney

This is the base appearance of the stage. It is a flat walk off with the spectator bench acting as giant walls. With enough damage, these walls can be broken although the walls do not reach up to the ceiling and more so halfway up the screen. The stage has a couple of cameos though. Apollo Justice and Klavier Gavin can be seen in a trial defending a random Smash Bros. character not currently in the match while the Judge oversees.

These characters are chosen to take part in the trial if Phoenix is currently fighting on the stage. If Phoenix isn't in the match currently however, he will be duking it out with his own rival, Miles Edgeworth.

With hazards on, every stage will have the same stage hazard. Some of the characters may shout OBJECTION! These speech bubble can hurt any player in its range and will launch them away. And now for the alternate looks,
Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies
This variation of the courtroom comes from Dual Destinies where an explosive detonated completely demolishing it. In this version of Courtroom, there are no walls blocking half each side. However, rubble is scattered across the floor making the ground uneven. The two characters on trial are Athena Cykes and Simon Blackquill with his pet bird Taka.

Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice
View attachment 342881
This layout resembles the courtroom of the Kingdom of Khura'in, a faraway country in the world of Ace Attorney. This version is similar to the Mishima Dojo stage in that a mystical barrier coats the entirety of both sides of the stage meaning that it will be need to be broken before a character can be KO'd and once it is broken, it stays broken permanently. Apollo Justice returns as well as his new rival, Nahyuta Sahdmadi.

The Great Ace Attorney
View attachment 342884
The final layout is from The Great Ace Attorney taking place 100 years into the past focusing on the adventures of Naruhodo Ryunosuke, Phoenix Wright's ancestor. Specifically, this courtroom is one inside the Old Bailey in Great Britain. The layout is identical to that of the base version although the blastzone is a bit wider. Ryunosuke will be presiding this trial from the past against his rival, Barok van Zieks.

Omega/Battlefield
The Omega and Battlefield stage variants will take the appearance of the Ace Attorney Trilogy courtroom appearance with the trial happening in the background and the stage basing its appearance of the legal counsel benches.
Nice Idea for an Assist Trophy, Though Maybe without the panties it would still work for smash.Trucy Wright
Phoenix Wrights adoptive daughter, Apollo Justices partner and recurring character.
Once Spawned, Trucy will appear in the background and start her magic act where she can do one of a few things
She will either Take out her magic panties and pull an item from them or Take Out Mr. Hat and have him attack other players
Yes, we would not be able to incorporate magical pantries. This is why they were passed up as Evidence.Trucy Wright
Phoenix Wrights adoptive daughter, Apollo Justices partner and recurring character.

Literally 1984!
In that case just replace all instances if magic panties with her hat
I see no reason to ban pantries. They're quite a convinient way to store food and cooking items. There's nothing inappropriate about them
Then the Panties are gonna appear in trash can to make the game friendlier for everyone.
I mean outside of that, are we good boys & girls? all of us?
Hey, I just noticed your icon. That's from Xeternaflamebryx.
Yup, you guessed it!
Pantries? weren't we talking about...girls' underwear?
I accidentally misspelled “panties” with “pantries”. Autocorrect didn’t catch it and I didn’t realize it until much later. After realizing my slip up, I decided to run with along with everyone else.
I feel like she should do something that she actually does in the games.Personally I feel like panties are ultimately just a piece of clothes and it’s weird to automatically associate them as a sexual thing but given that they do have such an association, especially in Japan, I can understand feeling they shouldn’t be “allowed.”
Anyways my assist trophy will be Ema Skye
She mixes two beakers together which results in a large, colorful explosion around her. After the explosion is done she throws you an item and disappears.
Also I don’t wanna sound annoying in saying this but I do think it would make much more sense to have the assist trophy be an assistant or detective who actually directly assists a protagonist in the games since there are so many of those characters
Franziska Von Karma
Franziska Von Karma
Yup. Of all the characters I could have chosen, I went with Franziska. Well hear me out. Franziska would spawn and snap her whip forward before quickly performing the sprite shown below:
She would then walk slowly, but confidentially on the stage. When she's close enough to a fighter, she would then attack with her whip, which launches far and has great K.O. potential.
Trucy Wright
Phoenix Wrights adoptive daughter, Apollo Justices partner and recurring character.
Once Spawned, Trucy will appear in the background and start her magic act where she can do one of a few things
