Yes, so according to the localization, the game takes place in "California", but the game is still full of Japanese references everywhere. It is a common joke to say the game takes place in the state of Japanifornia.

I feel it would be very unfair for me - and most others following this LP, who will have played this game before- to vote on something where we already know the correct answer. I agree that you should press everything but I think it's much more interesting if you, as the blind player, have to figure out for yourself what to present.

In case you haven't figured it out - there's usually some extra blurb of test if you go past the end of the testimony. It doesn't kick you out of testimony mode or anything.

That's strange. Those voice clip sound effects play in my browser, except for Edgeworth's "Hold it" and "Take that" which ask me to download them to my computer. I also get a security warning but that's simply resolved by changing the [url]http://[/url] links into https://. It doesn't fix that download issue though.

In the scene, Phoenix seems to be looking at the main gate *from the inside*. He did a, uh, turnabout, because the old bag snuck up behind him or whatever. So from that perspective, the employee area is to his right.

Question, imagine if in a real court case, the prosecutor came up with shoddy, incomplete evidence such as the photo of the guy walking in the suit here, and the defense does not object to this because they're idiots, what would happen? Like, is a judge allowed to step in and say "this evidence isn't enough to prove guilt" or do they have to stay neutral at all times?

Japanifornia is probably more walkable than California.

I have a suspicion that early on in development, it turned out the game would glitch out in some weird way if Phoenix' inventory was completely empty, so they just hardcoded it to always have the badge to prevent that glitch.

Rythian posted:I don't really pop in to vote, since I've played the games already so I know the right answer, and I either vote the correct answer, or something I know is incorrect. Yes, for the exact same reason I won't vote either. There's prob people voting who know the game in and out and I wonder how they decide to vote (if they vote anything that's not the badge).

DKII posted:Only the "2" on the signpost will do, here. The signpost here shows the bottom half of a "2", and the gate itself has a backwards "2" on it, but for some reason clicking on the gate just produces a generic failure. You mean the "S" for STUDIO on the gate? If you look under the arm of the Samurai you can even see part of the T.

Nidoking posted:In any case, while there's not usually as much flash or excitement in real courtrooms as in fictional ones, the process is still pretty interesting. It just tends to be far more interesting in retrospective summaries than actually sitting through it. I think LegalEagle on Youtube did a series analyzing fictional depictions of court rooms and pointing out inaccuracies. There might be Phoenix Wright spoilers in that series so maybe don't go look it up if you want to stay unspoiled. LegalEagle is a cool Youtuber though. He's an American and I have no idea how similar/different court cases in other legislations are. I know over here there's no sense of a jury, all final decisions are made by a judge (for small cases) or a group of judges (for larger cases).

I mean, the main christmas tradition in Japan is getting a bucket of KFC. Whether "spending time with your loved ones" is part of it I don't know.

DKII posted:Wait, when did Marshall get back on the witness stand? Wasn't Ema there earlier? Did he just wander back up there after she stormed in? quote:Was Lana living in the same legal system as Manfred von Karma and his crooked 40-year "perfect" record? In Japanese law, cases never make it into court unless the police can give the prosecution enough evidence that it'll be a clear "win" for them. That's why in over 99% of cases, the suspect is found guilty. If the police has any doubt about the suspect's guilt it never makes it into court. So, in Japan, when working in the police, you'd prob have to let cases go if you can't get the evidence together, which can be frustrating if you're quite certain who did it. But working as a prosecutor, you're going to win basically every case.

What I was referring to is, if you scroll back a little bit from the point I was quoting, in the same update, the last time you posted screenshots of either of them, Marshall was on the witness stand and Ema was assisting Phoenix.

Well done, and thanks for taking us along on this ride. Interested to see your impressions of the second game... after a well deserved break.
