We all know that when you present a wrong piece of evidence, the Judge will say the evidence is wrong and you will receive a penalty but the sentences vary each time.

I'm not sure how it worked in PW1 and 2 but in PW3, there are 14 Penalty Statements. I found this is out thanks to the script that was ripped by 'The Thinker'.

Now when you present a wrong piece of evidence, the game will randomly pick one of the statements but in a certain way. You guys will have to confirm this to make sure I got this right by the way as I'm not played Case 4 and 5 let. They will need double checking as well so let me know of any errors that have been put.


Anyway, 4/14 of the Statements are used when you play as Phoenix Wright. You will have noticed that Older Judge (the one from the previous two games) is always the Judge for Phoenix's case. Ever wondered why the Older Judge was in charge of Case 5 Part 2 Trial? It was so Capcom didn't have to make any more extra statements. XD

Anyway, these are the Penalty Statements when Phoenix Wright presents the wrong evidence.




Now Mia Fey unlike poor Phoenix has seven penalty statements. But don't forget that Mia gets to VS both Older and Younger Judge. From my memory of playing Case 1, 4/14 are used during Case 1 and 3/14 and used during Case 4. At least Capcom could be bothered to make the Younger Judge use separate Penalty Statements.





Finally, we have Miles Edgeworth who only uses 3/14 Penalty Statements. Come on Capcom, you could have given him 4 instead of 3. But enough of my complaining. Don't forget Edgeworth is talking with the Younger Judge.




Now I also found this in the script that was dumped. Most of it is obvious where they appear but some I have not got a clue.

Cool

I wanna play that! I guess I should play arround with that hex editor again, huh?

Maybe they were planning on adding an extra case.

It's probably just when you use a debugger of some sort, or maybe some codes. If not, somebody should try to find more about this, but I doubt it.

(Maybe you can debug to create a case!)
