Ace Attorney Wiki posted:"Rhoda" comes from the Ancient Greek for "rose" or "from the island of Rhodes" (a Greek island that is economically tourist-orientated). Her name shares the first three letters with "rhombus" which, considering her hairstyle and the shape of the buttons on her air hostess uniform, seems fitting. It's mostly derived from her Japanese name, which roughly translates to "This thin road," referring to her being narrow-minded, possibly in suspecting Edgeworth right away.

A good rule of thumb is if the meaning of a name isn't super apparent, it's probably a reference to their Japanese name.

I'm on that case now, and I didn't realise how much I missed Gumshoe until this.

boy that rakugo case is somewhat impenetrable for people who aren't at all familiar with that aspect of classical japanese theater, huh?

Not really. The case gave enough details about it so anyone could follow along as long as they weren't lightly skimming. Honestly I feel like you'd be in for a rougher time if you didn't pay attention to the difference between udon and soba.

Completely rewrite the entire case so it's about standups, case revolves around the Aristocrats.

The noodle bit is forreal the only actually impenetrable part. Suddenly everyone is talking about different types of noodle dough with japanese names as if I were supposed to understand the significance (and I was!!) I mean yeah I inferred it eventually but boy was it clumsy.

Although it literally just occurred to me now that "Rhoda Teneiro" might sounds a lot like "Robert De Niro," if you say it fast enough. I don't know what the one has to do with the other, though. AAI is a game I dearly love. I like that it tried something a little different, and I genuinely enjoyed all the cases, though the last one does go on a bit too long. I've heard so many great things about the sequel, and I'd love to play it, but even something fairly simple like patching and emulation is pretty far past me, so I think I'll probably just hope the English edition ends up on the eShop someday.

This will never happen. Like, actually never. So if you're willing to find out how to use an emulator [32-bit version] (download, set up controls for DS buttons in "Config", select "Open Rom"), then i'd be willing to point you to where you can find a pre-patched rom in a PM. The only other thing you should probably do then is double the display size via the menu "View > Magnification Filter > Nearest 2X", unless you enjoy stamp vision. edit: you might not even need to set up button controls, since i think the entire game can be controlled with the HenryEx fucked around with this message at 13:57 on Aug 18, 2017 |

There's also some option I needed to select so that the game didn't run at .5 speed or something stupid. Can't remember the details though.

AAI2 is never going to be officially localized. It sucks, but your only option is emulation. Please play it. It is amazing.

There's going to be an Ace Attorney show at Tokyo Game Show this year. We know for a fact there's going to be discussion about Apollo Justice 3DS, with Apollo's JP voice actor being a guest, but I would not discount the possibility of an AA7 tease, seeing as it's already been a year since SoJ and they announce these games about a year out from release.

So am I a idiot for not figuring out that (5-1 investigation spoilers) they wanted me to have one of the orb puzzle box things between two pieces? Because that feels kinda mean to not at least have it be a hint.

The treasure would have been safe from me, so I guess the security works.

There actually is a hint about it if you get to the point where you can consult, iirc. Unrelated: I hope Datz becomes Apollo's Gumshoe.

Rayfa is part of the Little Sister Squad with Trucy and Athena. Nahyuta is his new Klavier.

I really do think that AA7 will be an Athena story, even if they introduce a new character to round out the Agency, much like how DD was an Apollo story despite introducing Athena.

I joke but this game actually did involve a boss battle against a head of state. I do wonder what they'll have to do to escalate things next time. Quite possibly literally dying (or at least comatose) and having to perform defence attorney duties in Hell.

Yeah, Fran and Gumshoe are the only characters left that we really need to check in with. Edgeworth can stay home.

I love Nick but he's already had his time to shine and really overstayed his welcome in the spotlight, and it actively damaged Apollo in his first game.

Pairing Athena with Franziska as a comparative straight man would rule. She can be doing a stint at interpol or wherever Fran works now.
