I dunno.. it's just that .. I was searching for prosecutor badges on google, and when I couldn't find any proper ones I decided to go PW for help.

And I was thinking 'Omg Edgeworth must so totally have a sexy badge on that sexy pink suit of his'
and it turned out he didn't! D=
I was so dissappointed.
So I looked through all of the prosecutors and I realised that all of the defense attorneys have badges (with the exception of Diego Armando) and none of the prosecutors actually have badges. =/

Which leads me to my question, do prosecutors need badges? Or can they just barge in in a courtroom with an 'I'm-an-arrogant-bastard; be-ready-to-be-wowed-by-my-awesomeness' look and pass as a prosecutor?
Or do they go by ID card or something?
OR did Capcom make a huge, giant glitch?
xD I must sound like a complete n00b right now to all you law people.

I doubt it was a glitch. If it was they would have corrected it.
Spoiler: 3-5
Plus when you play as Edgy in court you see he has a badge on his lapel now, albeit it be Phoenix's badge. This is because you're playing 'Miles Edgeworth, Ace Attorney' :D -shot-

My guess is that they can do this so freely is because as far as we know all prosecutors thus far in the game work for the state. So my guess is the police already know about the Prosecutor going into court. But again, PW doesn't completely copy the law system in America. Prosecutors in America do have some form of badge, as Defense Attorneys do.

From what I hear (with Tails as my evidence) Prosecutors in the states have badges that look like kinda like FBI badges. Like, they are in small wallets. Also, I think prosecutors arn't allowed to post pictures of their badges online since it's a form of their ID.

So that might be why we never see them. Maybe the creators of the game put the badges on the Defence Attorneys to show that they arn't the prosecution, but that's my opinion.

I've got it!


All of them wear outdated or weird clothing!

Think about it.

Edgeworth - Crevat

Von Karma - Do I really need to say it?

Franny - poofy shoulder corset...thing

Godot - 50's news editor

Klavier - Rock god necklace and black leather pants.

From what I've seen, the actual "badge" is something like this, attached to a wallet-style leather cover with an ID on the other side, much like the badges you see special investigators flip out in the movies.

They mentioned the prosecutor's badge and why they won't wear it in Rise from the Ashes. The mark on the floor found in Gant's office is apparently designed after said badge. Let's examine it when Detective Gumshoe's in the office.

:ema: This mark looks like some kind of flower.
:gumshoe: Word is, it's designed after the insignia on the prosecutor's badge.
:phoenix: "Prosecutor's badge"...?
:gumshoe: Yeah, like the one hanging from your collar.
:phoenix: What!? They have badges too!?
:gumshoe: The design's supposed to portray the severity of the punishment system.
:ema: Now that you mention it, it does look all pointy and kind of painful.
:phoenix: But Mr. Edgeworth never wears a badge.
:gumshoe: That's because he's a sharp dresser. A badge like that wouldn't go too well with his outfit.
:ema: So sharp dressers don't need to wear badges?
:gumshoe: I guess everyone just kind of lets it slide.
:phoenix: (I don't see how that's supposed to signify severe punishment...)

So yeah, they're not obligated to wear it.

...So...in essence, Gumshoe kinda just proved my idea of snappy dressers getting away with it?

Prosecutors in Japan do have badges. They're kind of fancy looking, really - there's a picture in the Japanese guidebook for Rise From The Ashes. It used to be on the site.... I'll see if I can dig it up.

Why no one in the game ever wears one...I have no idea!

Please tell me the reason you don't have Payne on your list is because you forgot him.

Ah well, nobody cares about him anyways...

Payne's weird dress is his hair, or lack thereof depending one when you meet him

I wouldn't say it's a glitch, just something they chose not to represent from the real world. If pressed they'll just defend it under the "it's not a real court of law" disclaimer they have in the manual of every game.

What about this state prosecutor from Ohio?

I see her badge shown in the top left corner. At least I think it's her badge. I found this on google's image search.

Ah, but the image is really small, so technically nobody can try to copy it...
IDENTITY THEFT isn't cool. :zenitora: already showed that. xD;
