TAKE THAT! Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney smashes the prosecution!

[THE SLOTH]

Oh man The Game Awards are going to be sick! We did it bros!

He's in! I can't wait to hear his iconic line, "Phoenix Wright Object!" in game!

Jokes aside, I would have disqualified this on the grounds of it being blurry. That's always a red flag for fake leaks.

Hmm, while I obviously agree in regards to this specific "leak"... dunno, man, all fakes are blurry, but not all blurries are fake. You can count it as a red flag if you want, but I don't think we can use it to argue objectively.

Case in point: Ken leak and ESRB leak in Smash 4.

Also because it's the very first render google gives you for "Phoenix Wright Render" lol

Ooh, I see. Didn't recognize the render and thought he had the thumb up, that's why I mistook it for the Ken taunt lol.

Would have been a cool gag tho. Especially since they're Capcom bros.

Even if these are no actual hints, I think it's always fun to speculate and speculation is what keeps this thread alive.

Therefore I have an idea: For every new, daily picture Sakurai posts, let us try to find a connection to Ace Attorney. The more ridiculous the connection, the better. Note that this shouldn't be taken too seriously, it's just a fun little game

I can't believe it's happening.

Edit:
Dammit I forgot to remove the Joker logo lmao

I had a different Ace Attorney character in mind for the line of Jokers pointing their guns...

Day 2: Sakurai's pic of the day is totally a reference to the intro of the most beloved case in the series, Turnabout Big Top! Sakurai wanted to depict magician Maximilion Galactica flying away from the stage with today's picture.

Nono you got it all wrong. The Duck is obviously a reference to Polly from Turnabout Goodbyes.

And Pichu wants to cross-examine it.

Oh, hey! looks like work on the DGS2 fan translation is coming along!
https://twitter.com/ScarletStudy1

Thanks for the heads up! DGS1 remains my favorite game I played through and completed this year. While it may be better to wait until DGS2 is fully translated, I'm too excited to pass up the opportunity to play through cases 1 and 2 right now, as I purchased a copy of DGS2 right after I beat DGS1. I can't wait to dive into the beginning of DGS2!

i think this is what happens when people are bored

 

[Jovahexeon Joranvexeon]

• "Arsenals at the ready!" (September) introduced Daemon X Machina Spirits
• "Attack of the Tetriminos" (October) introduced the Tetris Spirits
• "New Galar Region Pokémon Discovered!" (November) introduced the Sword and Shield Spirits

As someone who missed out on these events, I wonder when those spirits will become available again.

I'm at the least sure they randomly drop onto the shop every now and then (as do spirits from DLC boards funnily enough). I can't attest to whether they ranndomly appear on the spirit boards however.

What stage is this even from?

According to the comments, Sak used to hang out on Miiverse. That would explain a bit...

His Final Smash is him arresting the opponent before Edgeworth can question them.

Wright: The autopsy report clearly states that the victim was killed with a Burger King bag...

I'm leaving the decade how I came into it, with the first Ace Attorney.

Obviously that's referring to the oil painting situation from Turnabout Sisters.

It can also be interpreted as a Dante reference, as Hideki Kamiya created both Devil May Cry and Bayonetta. And Devil May Cry is a Capcom franchise. Wha tother franchise does Capcom have? That's right. Ace Attorney.

If Wright had an alternate costume, which one would it be?

I suppose some would bring up another character from the franchise (maybe Edgeworth), but I would personally add his alternate costume from UMvC3.

I want his pre-timeskip and post-timeskip suit looks. And if we're lucky enough to get more, I'd want his Apollo Justice "hobo" look and the pink Feenie sweater.

I could see Sak go for those, honestly. Luckily Nick isn't a traditional fighting game character, so maybe the chances are a tad higher here.

I remember seeing a YouTube comment saying that Adrian Andrews from Justice For All was "Zero Suit Samus with glasses".

Therefore, I deduce that this is Justice For All Adrian Andrews vs. Trials and Tribulations Adrian Andrews.

If Wright had an alternate costume, which one would it be?

I suppose some would bring up another character from the franchise (maybe Edgeworth), but I would personally add his alternate costume from UMvC3.

At the very least, I see us getting both his pre-time skip appearance from the original trilogy and his post-time skip appearance from Dual Destinies onward. There'a also the the obvious choices of his "Feenie" jacket from Trials and Tribulations, and his hobo phase from Apollo Justice.

Other than that? Well, there's Furio Tigre's jacket, which was a DLC costume in Spirit of Justice. And while this is extremely unlikely, there's also the Japan-exclusive Sengoku Basara costume also from Spirit of Justice...
