According to the leaker, Sherlock Holmes will appear in Dai Gyakuten Saiban (presumably as the rival character). This version's Watson is an eight-year-old girl.
Both characters were silhouetted on the official site recently:
Quote:
For now, best to treat this as a rumor, but it does seem just crazy enough that Takumi would do it.
Update: enough other sources are picking this up that we're calling it confirmed. From Gematsu:
Quote:
Detective of the century Sherlock Holmes will appear in The Great Ace Attorney alongside eight-year-old M.D. and literary girl Iris Watson, this week’s Famitsu reveals.
Together with Holmes, protagonist Ryuunosuke Naruhodou will investigate incidents. However, that doesn’t seem to mean the pair will be together at all times.
Famitsu also introduces a new element called “Joint Reasoning.” As Naruhodou and Holmes work together to solve mysteries, players will point out where Holmes is taking his reasoning further than the truth in order to get to the bottom of what really happened.
As far as the game’s flow goes, it will be similar to previous entries in that it follows detective and courtroom parts. This time, however, it will have both 3D characters and 3D backgrounds. And the actual depth of the background will be utilized (meaning, the character can actually go into the background).
The Great Ace Attorney is due out for 3DS in Japan in 2015.

Update 2: First scan of Holmes (thanks Mijimaru):
Spoiler: scan
Update 3: Some scans and screenshots over at Kotaku, including a look at Watson!
Update 4: Full scans, and some new info:
- Ryuunosuke begins the game in Japan, where as a college student he’s involved in a certain case that puts him on the path to becoming a formal attorney. To better study law, he transfers to England along with Mikotoba, where he meets Holmes.
- Most of the story will take place in London, with Japan serving as the setting for Ryuunosuke’s first case.
- Court and investigation proceed in mostly the same way, but during investigations Ryuunosuke and Holmes will use “joint reasoning” - a system where, as Ryuunosuke, you must point out any inconsistencies in Holmes’ rapid-fire reasoning. (The example shown is Holmes accusing a witness of being a certain revolutionary.)
- Part of the reason they settled on 3D was to allow for a very dynamic camera to match Holmes’ high-speed thinking. Takumi jokes that Holmes really set the stage for the game!
- Takumi has a deep love of the Sherlock Holmes stories, so he’s trying to respect the character. Holmes is described as falling somewhere between the “storybook Holmes” and a “real Holmes” - a man who focuses maybe too much on his investigations, but isn’t a bad person at heart.
- Ryuunosuke and Holmes’ meeting is a key point of the game.

Well, he does know the Japanese art of "baritsu". Also, DGS could be set in the blank years after Reichenbach Falls.
But then again, a Japanese speaking Holmes would mess up all those Natsume Soseki / Sherlock Holmes crossovers people for some reason love to write...

Though I'd almost certainly peg Holmes' as a detective character rather than a prosecutor and I'm still a bit sceptical it'll be the literal Holmes himself.

But then, I'd also wonder exactly why Sherlock (and Watson) are in feudal Japan and their law system.

I can't say I approve but if anyone could pull it off, it's Takumi.
Takumi would make Sherlock a complete joke character, ignoring that Sherly was pretty serious at times. Also, I doubt he'd take over the canonity that Sherly tended to use drugs to keep himself going.

In a series where you can cross examine parrots, radios, spirits, convicts, face a samurai and a whip-toting sadist in court, and meet all sorts of wacky, messed up people, this seems almost too normal in comparison to me.

Impossible to pull off, because if this WAS Sherlock, they'd be absolutely wrong since Sherly was a detective and never a prosecutor.

Either way, I really hope this gets localized, because if we end up getting a "Sherlock Holmes vs. Phoenix Wright" I want to be able to play it sometime soon.
I used to have Sam Waterston as my avatar but photobucket added a watermark and also Law & Order has been cancelled for 10 years so it's time for me to move on.

Speaking of localization, I find it kind of funny that Iris Watson's first name is, well, Iris.

Umh.. What's an M.D. ?
It stands for Medical Doctor. I actually hadn't read that part about Watson, and that adds to my uncertainty a little bit. I have enough of a hard time buying a 13 year old Prosecutor, but this is going to be really hard to just roll with unless they come up with some kind of crazy reason.
Also, I'm betting that the ACTUAL Dr. Watson is going to be missing or involved in the crime and will be found/the crime will be resolved in the end.

Ah that's cool to hear they're working together for the truth, I would've found it weird if he was destroying Sherlock in court given his intellect. Although I was excited for the possibility of 2-d graphics returning I'm fine with 3D by now (and the camera angles they allow during dramatic moments) so all's well. Can't wait until we get a new trailer.
As long as they keep the DD way of matching the sprite movements, I'm good with the 3D. I'm not digging everyone's movements in PLvsAA, though. It looks so slow and out of place.

Am I the only one who cares about this more than the character reveals? We can go INTO the backgrounds, guys! That means we can walk all over the place AND teleport! Yaaaaaay!
"Joint Reasoning" sounds like an interesting concept. I'm hoping for something along the lines of the "zapping system" from the Detective Conan games, but it might just be some form of connecting the dots. Or, maybe it's something in-between! I'm not sure how it'll work out, but it sounds cool.
Even on the off-chance that this leak isn't completely true, I'd at least want these points to be.

Yeah it's really appealing. I just hope they make it similar enough to the history books that you could, say, read all the books and then jump into this and nothing would clash too much. Obviously Watson is different but like I said before I'm not necessarily convinced this is AA's version of the "John Watson" character.
