Come on, he's 35 years old now and, despite the 7 year absence, not a rookie lawyer anymore. He should stop looking that horrified when something goes wrong. He was a freaking poker player for 7 years, where's his poker face?

What's wrong with Nick's
face? It's hilarious. What I don't prefer is Nick's new confident face. His smile seems a bit too wide, but it's not too distracting anyway.The thing is that Phoenix was this guy for a few years:
You know, cool as liquid hydrogen. And now we should believe he is nervous and fearful again?
Personally I hope he only acts nervous for the first case, so that they have a reason to give new players a tutorial. I would have prefered a tutorial where Phoenix explains stuff to Athena, but we don't even know if case 1 is actually Athena's first case.

Well, to be fair, the only cases he was shown to be really cool as liquid hydrogen involved Kristoph and a case he just needed 7 years to find Kristoph guilty of. Those were also in Apollo's point-of-view.
His dorkiness was still apparent in Case 3 and 4 when Trucy talked about what happened on a Ferris Wheel, and then when Phoenix got surprised about a possibility he never thought for 7 years about the Troupe Gramarye case.

True. People say that he's still GONNA BE that way. I hope not.

Well, I don't say he should act like he did during Kristoph's trial, but he shouldn't be just the same Phoenix we know of AA1 to AA3. Before I judge him I have to play the full game myself, but I hope his nervous behaviour we saw in the demo won't last long. Of course his official art looks very confident and determined, so I am pretty sure they will go this way.

I don't know what you mean, is "cool as liquid nitrogen" a common phrase? I just chose liquid hydrogen, because it's even cooler than liquid nitrogen.

His smile seems a bit too wide, but it's not too distracting anyway.Because it doesn't suit an older, more sophisticated Phoenix who has managed to clear his name and return to the Law. It makes sense for Apollo to have it, since he's still kind of a rookie in terms of court mind-plays and all. And as mentioned, Phoenix played poker.
What, did he never learn how to create a damn poker face?

In 4-4, Zak says Phoenix didn't look surprised and Phoenix says something along the lines of "must be my poker face".

This is the one thing that has bothered me since TGS last year. AJ's Nick is radically different from DD's because one giant 7-year-worth burden has been lifted. Admittedly, Nick does seem a bit too nervous in the first case, but I'm sure it's meant as a joke, sort of a nostalgic glance to the AA. (Nick makes a constant effort to lampshade the fact, even.) And I wouldn't say "cool as liquid hydrogen" - more like "cool as a spring breeze".
Even during the "present" investigations of Turnabout Succession, he wasn't acting much different from his "past" self. Besides, Apollo is just that easy to make fun of. Nick's been the center of verbal abuse ever since he began his career; having someone to tease without getting backlashes is like a priceless treasure to cherish.

To be fair, it's easier to hide your emotions when you're playing poker than it is when you're defending somebody from being jailed for murder... or for blowing up a courtroom.

Spoiler:
Regarding Phoenix's
face, that was a small concern to me too, but if I remember correctly, when I played the demo the only time Phoenix did that was if I presented the wrong evidence, something that isn't ever canon anyway, so if the demo is any indication they might only use it when the player makes a mistake, which makes sense since if a genius legendary defense attorney who never lost a case made a mistake that big, they'd probably have a bit of a freakout.The thing about info regarding new AA is that it's a little like seeing a trailer/clip to an upcoming comedy series. A lot of new stuff seems unmemorable or weird when you are seeing it for the first time and without any context, but when you end up watching/playing, in context everything works. So while none of the new characters seem that interesting to me now, that's only because I don't have the game in my hands to experience in full. So I don't really have any feelings or opinions on any of the new stuff, other than that it does indeed look like AA, and that the info we have been getting about it in the last year has consistently not only met but have exceeded my expectations about this game.
I used to have Sam Waterston as my avatar but photobucket added a watermark and also Law & Order has been cancelled for 10 years so it's time for me to move on.

Not really. If you're good enough with a poker face, you can put it on in any situation.

Does anybody recognize the name of this Yumihiko Ichiyanagi-look-alike? He looks just about the same as him, except with the dictionary and different color hair.

The student's name is Rei (レイ). He seems to respect Phoenix, if he's using his proper title "Attorney Wright" (成歩堂弁護士). But he doesn't share the same sentiments for Apollo and Athena.

I hope Phoenix isnt made like Rookie GS1 Phoenix for the sake of it, that would be stupid. He was a poker player for 7 years and he has matured, 35 years old now so should be calmer than he was before.
