Talk:Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth

About the reception/sales part

Considering that Dragon Quest IX sold more than 2.3 million units on it's first week of sales, I wish to see the position of Ace Attorney Investigations sales corrected.. in which place it actually is in comparison to other DS titles, and in comparison to the other Ace Attorney series titles. Can someone provide such info?

English Case Names and UK Release Date

First, the English case names under the Plot header are not official, they are translations by Croik of http://www.court-records.net, which were just guesses as to what the names would be, whether or not they should be kept is debateable. Maybe a footnote explaining that these are not the offical English case names?

Second, there may soon be edits listing that this game will be released in the UK in November 2009. A rumor that has been posted as official on a few sites. Capcom has made no offical release of a UK date, and thusly, I highly doubt that it would be released before the US, as none of the other games have done so. Just take note that there shouldn't be a UK release date. -Percei —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.215.183.10 (talk) 00:27, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

New video

I don't know how much we can use this since 1) its japanese 2) it's a youtube video that I believe was ultimate from Famitsu, but there's new details regarding the game here YouTube video. There is confirmation of one new character and several returning ones. --MASEM 17:56, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Wait, just because there weren't any court scenes in the video doesn't necessarily mean that there aren't any in the game. Any proof of this? 128.235.140.13 (talk) 14:38, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Meaning, he wont be actively participating as the public prosecutor, but doing detective work. Zerocannon (talk) 07:26, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

FWIW, the official site shows substantially the same gameplay as the youtube video. --moof (talk) 15:31, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Article Title?

This game has an English name now, shouldn't we change the article to reflect that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.71.35.179 (talk) 15:17, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Can you provide a source for an official english name? The "Perfect Prosecutor" is a fan-based one, and thus not official. --MASEM 15:20, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't have an English name. Wikipedian06 (talk) 20:44, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Officially now named Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, (http://kotaku.com/5230136/ace-attorney-investigations-hits-north-american-ds-this-winter), I propose it changed to this. :) J4cK0fHe4rt5 (talk) 16:26, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

US Release?

Does anyone have any idea whether or not the game is scheduled for release in the United States? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.105.204.255 (talk) 04:55, 7 September 2008 (UTC) There currently isn't any information on a US release. There isn't even information on the Japanese release yet, for that matter, so just wait a while. 71.190.99.60 (talk) 06:35, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

I doubt there's any reason for it not to get a US release. Even so, like the previous ace attorney games, it may have a dual english/japanese option.-81.86.137.162 (talk) 04:15, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Actually one the first three game has one with the fourth being Japanese language only. --76.71.208.110 (talk) 19:49, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Phases

It seems that the notion of dividing the game into three phases might be speculation and is probably wrong. In Ace Attorney games, investigations terminated and then the trials began, which terminated again to make way for investigations. Logic and Confrontation seem to work equivalently to the Psyche-Locks in AA2-3. This is also speculation, but I think the ambiguity should be noted. Capefeather (talk) 02:47, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Box art?

Is this an official box art image? Or is it considerably doubtable? Capefeather (talk) 00:00, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Dual language support?

I've noticed that previous Japanese Gyakuten Saiban titles (minus Gyakuten Saiban 4 ) has had the dual language support, with an option to play in English. Does anyone know if Gyakuten Kenji will have the same feature? --Ramfan2772 (talk) 03:00, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Probably not; keep in mind that all the DS games until 4 were simply ports of older GBA games, and the English script had already been completed. 4 was (and Kenji will be) a brand-new game.--173.55.159.73 (talk) 05:09, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

The English trailer does prove that some of the script is done: I admit it's unlikely, but still not impossible at this point in time. We won't know for sure until May 28. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.79.152.9 (talk) 01:22, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

I can confirm that there's no english translation unfortunately. We'll have to wait until the U.S. version.

The game's title (Miles Edgeworth at front or back)

The game's title has been referred to as both Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth and Miles Edgeworth: Ace Attorney Investigations. Which of these is correct? Discuss. --Meph (talk) 16:50, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

I see this (http://kotaku.com/5230136/ace-attorney-investigations-hits-north-american-ds-this-winter) as a valid source, and believe their styling of the title to be the correct one. J4cK0fHe4rt5 (talk) 17:06, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

But that might be pure speculation, too. Do we really know how anyone gets these conclusions? Capefeather (talk) 21:49, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Actually, wasn't Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney referred to as "Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice" for some time? DeMatador (talk) 19:07, 28 April 2009 (GMT -3, please convert to UTC)

Sites such as IGN and even Capcom are referring to it as Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth. Lets leave it as it is. --Meph (talk) 18:57, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Strange, because the layout of the logo seems to be the same as all the Ace Attorney games since Justice For All, indicating that at least the logo designer thought it was called Miles Edgeworth: Ace Attorney Investigations. It's a terrible title anyway...eyeball226 (talk) 16:41, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Actually, Wikipedia seems to have trouble figuring out exactly how to name all of the AA articles. If the Capcom Store is any indication, the second game should be Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Justice For All, the third game should be Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations (note the colon) and this game is indeed Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth. (Side note: As if Perfect Prosecutor would have been any better...) Capefeather (talk) 17:50, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Plot revamp

All over the internet it seems nobody's been willing to write a proper account of the plot of this game. Even in this article, the plot is lacking in information such as the names of the episodes (with original Japanese). I would add in the info, but I'm not playing the game.

Regarding a recent edit war

Dragonmaster88 has been undoing my two recent edits which were the following:

1. Changing the logic header from level 3 to level 4
2. Setting the release date for PAL regions.

I will explain why I have done these edits.

1. Logic is part of the investigation mode. It is not a separate part of the game.
2. When Capcom announced that they were making an English version of the game at Captivate 2009, they also announced a release date. They said that the game would be released in Winter 2009 in all PAL regions.

Okay then? :) --Meph (talk) 08:13, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

I wouldn't exactly call it an edit war, if you can't cite where you saw this on the net =^-^=;;--"I am an oktau and a baka at times but deny proven facts and you got a fight" comment added by Dragonmaster88 (talk • contribs) 18:19, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

NEW Gyakuten NOT Saiban

I have proof that the codename for the game is "NEW Gyakuten NOT Saiban." Please stop being so immature and changing it back all the time. It's got nothing to do with grammar! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCeoLl_57fw --Meph (talk) 15:19, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Its a code name? =O-o=; thats a weird code name and secondly I am not being immature =-_-=--I am an oktau and a baka at times but deny proven facts and you got a fight" comment added by Dragonmaster88 (talk • contribs) 17:55, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

E3 release date?

Can anyone give his/her thoughts on this? Capefeather (talk) 01:12, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
