To continue the stereotype, he talks about doughnuts and coffee. I'm just glad he doesn't emphasize his love for moose meat. <.<

The best thing about judge-bro is how they use him to make fun of the judge going "Hmm..." after so many testimonies.

"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
I see."

As a Canadian, I'm mildly surprised the localization team would throw a couple of the stereotypes in there to begin with.....Sigh LOL...

Makes me remember this lil commercial: http://youtube.com/watch?v=TL01SReeOqE

And besides... "Aboot" sounds more like a Scottish accent to me than anything else!

Did you ever think in that Timbit-filled Canadian head of yours, that there's a possibility that someone on the localization team was in fact Canadian, and that served as inspiration for the character? :godot: Or perhaps there was someone on the localization that was Canadian and it was a cute little characterization of said person? :redd: Or perhaps... gasp, the person who wrote the judge's brother as a Canadian was in fact a Canadian? :karma: Think about that while you munch on your ketchup chips and poutine, lol. :minuki:

And if you think Aboot is Scottish, you obviously have not been to Maritime Canada. Oh, sorry, I forgot, Toronto is the center of the universe, therefore Aboot doesn't exist. My bad, haha :) :keiko:

Blarg to the tacked-on sterotypes. I'm slightly disappointed by the choice, especially if the Judge's Bro wasn't like this in Gyakuten Saiban 3. (Perhaps a GS3 vet can answer that, did he use regional based humor in the original Japanese script?) If not, it seems like a cheap way to add "personality" to a character.

But, I'm not really put off by it. I know it's not meant to be mean spirited. It does not effect my seething anticipation for T&T. (Two more months...)

Well, you have to remember that Canada is really cold. That would put me in a perpetual bad mood too. :gant: (I'm kidding, of course!)

Seriously though, I'd be surprised if the GS3 character didn't have some form of an accent, because pretty much all the characters seem to have something like that going on. When they're not making up words altogether, that is! :redd:

They had to differentiate the Judge's bro from the normal Judge, anyway - and this was a clever way of doing it.

At one point I did think that someone was possibly a Canadian in the localization team, and most of the Canadian jokes I read in the game reminded me of a beer commercial of all things.

It was all so left field I just didn't think someone would put it all in there. :welly: A Canadian judge presiding over an American court? Not that it's impossible or wrong or anything, but the thought alone is enough make me go "Huhh?" :yogi:

[The "Toronto vs the rest of Canada" thing is just pointless as someone sticking nipples on the Starbucks logo. Nothing personal itsumobasho, I never really understood it even though I'm not a "Torontoian". My apologies if I ruffled your feathers, but you didn't have to dump all that on me.]

I lawled.

Of course, I personally don't believe he's gay. He's incredibly uptight and really dislikes any kind of small talk, which Larry seems to specialize in. He's not a man for nonsense, in any event. But let's not open this can of worms here. :redd:

These Edgeworth quotes are cracking me up, especially that one with the description of the Megatama as "What utter nonsense".

One thing I like about TaT so far, are the small details that are easily missed. TaT, which surprised me, had alot of names and locations given, that are unessential to the plot. I think it is worthwhile to list the small details here. Don't you agree?

- Phoenix says, in case 3, that he only knows two flowers - a Dahlia not being one of them. Sure enough, he never actually DOES call Dahlia his 'flower' in case 1, now does he?

- The sports magazine lists a person called 'Gutsen Brawn' as a professional boxer, as told by Maggey. That is obviously made from Guts and Brawl.

The game is LITTERED with small comments as this. It's unbelivable nice localization.

Not sure if those have been said yet, but I think here are some more external references:

(Ending of one of Luke Atmey's cross-examinations)
:aiga: ...and that's all she wrote.

"Murder, she wrote"

(When talking on the recess of the fourth case trial)
:javado: My senses are tingling all over...

I'm not 100% sure, but may it be a reference to Spiderman?

(At the bridge with Maya)
:phoenix: "I see dead people" sounds more like a cause of alarm for me...

"The sixth sense"

(At Hazakurain, talking with Bikini)
:maya: Forgive him, sister, for he knows not what he's saying.

My grandma used to say a prayer which said something very similar...

Here are all I have found yet, hopefully they haven't been said, that's the correct thread, and none of the little things which may fail on a first post happened... If so, sorry, n00b here :will:

Unlike previous games, everything is 'heck' and 'dang'. The fuck happened to damn and hell? It's gonna get a teen rating anyway!

Also, "if you're a man, wipe your own ass" = "if you're a man, clean up your own mess"
