Yeah, this is clearly marketing. But it seems a little premature to complain when we haven't even seen it in the context of the game. No doubt Edgeworth will know straight away who DeKiller is, whilst the incompetent police go about their incompetent business...

The char designs have gotten progressively weirder over the course of the franchise. PW1 everyone was borderline normal. PW3 was starting to push the envelope. 1-5 went overboard with insufferable freaks like Meekins. By GS4 most are utterly bizzare, like the hideous Brushel.

You really didn't like GK, did you? While it's true it hasn't been subjected to the critique by fandom it probably deserves, well people just accept it as the UNcontroversial fanservice/spinoff it is so nobody can be bothered with critical analysis. (Myself, I keep meaning to replay but I seem to use up all the time on writing fanfic instead, hmm) And there's signs that GK2 MAY improve GK's shortcomings, for example them saying it will focus on Edgeworth's 'dilemma' or whatever, maybe there'll be more compelling characterisation/plot this time?

Edgeworth didn't get any character development in GK1, but he doesn't need it either so it's harder to write.

His Feenie-style flashback in GK didn't contribute anything new to his characterisation like 3-1. And they're not going to pull a hobo on Edgeworth, in many ways they made GK the opposite of GS4. And like we've said previously, dealing with the disbarring issue is logical further char development but I doubt they'll do it, if it had major ties to AJ maybe we'd have got hints by now as it's a potential selling point.

I wish. But there'd have to be a Layton figure too, so it won't happen.

If each pre-order of the game would come with either a Maya, Phoenix, Layton or Luke figure, I would buy FOUR! :godot:

Dear god, that is so cuddly. If you don't mind cuddling with plastic or other synthetic material that has been converted to resemble something cuddly.

I am totally going to get that limited edition. That action figure is awesome. I wonder how much it will be in US dollars (and for that matter Euros and other currencies from Europe)?

By this token, the characters in AAI are dressed rather acceptably minus the series' traditional quirks (e.g. box hair, bright pink leotard, inch wide bullet holes in coat).

Thank Capcom for it! If the character designers had continued down the road of T&T's wacky costumes, I might have had a difficult time taking AAI seriously.

The box art is great. This depiction of Edgeworth seems more appropriate as he is more of a serious type of person. I didn't think anything about the art changes since art in many game and manga series are always slightly becoming different over time, however, I don't think it was that drastic. Anyways, I think it fits the box art better this way. It really sets the tone. Also, Kay's expression is awesome. It really mixes well next to Edgeworth's serious expression. The two other characters have good designs.

OT: Also, I ship :edgeworth: x :keylady: anytime from 18 and on. I like their friendship the way it is when she is 17. :{ That is why I made fan art of her earlier depicting her at 22, since it would be neat if she became his assistant after all these events. I'm also for Gumshoe x Maggie. I can't think of any others at the moment.

Edit: I always thought the Steel Samurai, Pink Princess, and Iron Infant was something like an allusion to Edgeworth's and Kay's future. :Y That's how I saw it anyway. It seemed to imply that they would eventually end up together.

Anyone think Fedoraman could be Badd's cousin, or younger sibling?

Actually, I was thinking that he might be related to Jake Marshall. BUT THIS. THIS IS A BETTER IDEA.

Doesn't The Pink Princess more canonically represent Maya though? =/

Not saying that it in any way implies Edgeworth/Maya. I just don't see how you're getting Kay from The Pink Princess. XD (I always thought The Steel Samurai was more Phoenix than Edgeworth too, but that's just me and it can go either way, I guess)

Especially since the game then dashes Steel Samurai/Pink Princess as a serious pairing and makes it all a joke anyway by making it Larry and OLDBAG of all people.

And the Iron Infant gets irresponsibly thrown in the laundry. I sure HOPE Edgeworth wouldn't treat his future kids that way.

...now I want to see kid Edgeworth realizing he left a baby Franziska at the laundromat and freaking out. Ahaha...

Not to mention the fact that Will Powers played both roles, so if any pairings come out of Steel Samurai/Pink Princess, it ought to be Will Powers and his right hand. :meekins:

OR left hand! Don't be prejudiced, now!

I seriously laughed at that, Adrian in Black. XD Just imagining a cheesy romance movie poster starring Will Powers and his hand. LOVE TRIANGLE BETWEEN THE LEFT AND RIGHT ONE.

There's no reason it can't be both. There's enough Will to go around!

...Well, no, I take that back. Unless Sal Manella finds a way to write the exercise bunny into the Steel Samurai universe.

I too must second that notion. :sadshoe:

The whole point of Ace Attorney is the dialogue, and I'm not paying one bill for what would essentially devolve into a bookshelf collectible (I have never been a fan of limited editions, collector's editions, etc.)
