Ace Attorney 5

Can't wait to play as Revengeance Apollo.

Aren't Nintendo's digital stores terrible? I heard they were terrible.

They might have been on the Wii/DSi, I never used them. Wii U and 3DS are fine though, both are better than the "upgraded" PS store.

There's a demo for this up on the eshop now, it's coming out on the 24th.

The demo is so fucking good, oh my goooooood.

Agreed, the 3D models are good and the animations don't seem to have lost any of their charm in the transition from sprites, Athena's mechanic seems cool and I like Revengeance Apollo. Really looking forward to this.

Downloading this now, I'm almost as hyped as I was for Pokemon.

Fuck Europe, we still aren't able to get it.

I thought the first case was good, at least as much as a first case can be good considering all the hand-holding making things take ten times as long as they should.

I've never played an Ace Attorney game before, but the demo was quite impressive, even if it was basically impossible to lose the case.

Took me a while to stop playing Pokemon and do it but I thought the second case was pretty good. The characters are fun, Chou is the villain (this isn't a spoiler, it's shown in the opening case cinematic) and at the end it showed off a new mechanic that I thought was really cool. It basically lets you play the final epiphany and piece together what really happened through a string of choices, instead of just reading it like the other games.

Finished this today, I think it's about on par with T&T on the whole. Prosecutor is a little less interesting than Godot and Case 4 isn't much more than a big prologue to the final case but everything else is fantastic. I really hope we get AAI2, LaytonxAA and anything else that's made in the future.
