GAA1-1 is semi-unique since I think it's the only case where the accused has to essentially represent themselves.

I'll admit it's actually been so long I've actually forgotten most of Apollo justice (and probably dual destinies and spirit of justice) so this is effectively brand new to me! (that Apollo justice video is definitely coming up and I have not forgotten)

Yeah, the second half of 1-2 has Redd accuse Nick of killing Mia and then Nick, having been warned of the corruption and blackmail at Redd's fingertips, refuses his public defender and proceeds to defend himself. It's kinda easy to forget that detail in the wackiness of the rest of the case, and with how little it effectively changes (absolutely nothing).

I think the most hosed up thing about these games is that there are only two cases in which Phoenix is the defence, Maya the assistant, and Edgeworth the prosecutor, and they are 1-3 and 6-DLC.

also 6-DLC clearly wanted to make Gumshoe the detective, but they didn't want to bring him back for whatever reason, so they just made Ema bungle a bunch of poo poo even though she is consistently a competent detective in any other case. maybe I'm the only person who's mad about that, but I didn't care for it

Honestly, the only game where I felt it overstayed its welcome is AJ itself, though I haven't played the new collection yet. In DD and SoJ I found I could generally intuit which lines and body parts I was expected to focus on.

(AA5-3 spoilers) I honestly got stuck and had to look up that I had to perceive, of all things, Juniper's scarf. I kept watching her hands, eyes, etc. Didn't even think about looking at a covered up body part.

So I realized Apollo Justice case 3 actually has a direct contradiction. If Lamiroir is supposed to be blind, how did she recognize her brooch when you showed it to her.

Presumably you're allowing her to touch it or describing it to her or something like that.

Speaking of case 3 of AJ, I am completely stuck in the second day investigation. Ema found some thing under a couch but I can’t get it in my inventory or do anything from there? I’ve checkmarked all the dialogue options with everyone, examined everything, I feel like I’ve shown everyone everything I have. Anyone remember how you’re supposed to advance?

Finished AA6-2 and this really feels like a case that should have been swapped with AA5-2. It's a Trucy-focused case, which AA5 kinda needed since she was otherwise near invisible there. And it brings back Ema, who was in AA4 and is notably completely absent in AA5. Feels like 5-2 was just the 'Fullbright introduction case' to start building the rapport for him.
