For all you Europeans who “objected” to not having Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, fear not. May 9 is the magic day that justice will be delivered and you, too, can have the sequel to the popular Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. You’ll be able to judge for yourself whether this game will live up to its predecessor, or if this game is the death sentence of the series (okay, that’s not fair, it’s meant to be a great game, but there aren’t any really good puns for “this game is excellent, you should all go and try it”).
Capcom has announced that they’ll be doling out the hot Apollo Justice in North America on February 12th. Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney is the first game in the Ace Attorney series created specifically for the Nintendo DS, fully utilizing the system’s various features to enhance your experience as Phoenix Wright’s spiritual successor. Play CSI in the all new Crime Recreation Mode, or simply have fun terrifying the people on the bus by shouting :OBJECTION!: and “HOLD IT!” at the top of your lungs into the DS microphone. I love this series, if anything for the awesome attorney names. Phoenix Wright? Apollo Justice? It’s enough to make a guy want to legally change his name. This is Manticore Steel for Kotaku, signing off. Oh yeah, that’s the stuff.
