The Capcom Live Stream was today, here's some new info as well as some info that was implied but not confirmed.
Slight spoilers for returning characters, localized names, and plot elements.

Spoiler:
1.The Length of Dual Destinies is about the same as Trials and Tribulations
They wouldn't specify on the amount of cases, but he said that it would have roughly the same amount of content as T&T and would take 25-30 hours to complete.

2. The Jurist system will not be returning.
Apparently the Jury will not be returning. No details about how that plot line changed at the moment.

3. Sam Reigel is officially back as Phoenix Wright
I think we guessed this already based on the English trailer, but the man who voiced Phoenix in Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 is returning as Phoenix.

4. Simon Blackquill is a convicted prosecutor who uses psychological manipulation on his opponents and the Judge.
Again, something I think we already kind of knew, but it's been confirmed.

5. The recurring Stepladder joke returns in Dual Destinies.
Eshiro confirmed that the Stepladder joke returns in some form, but that the players have to find it for themselves.

6. Maya hinted as a returning character? (No denial of Maya)
When asked if Maya would return, Eshiro simply said something along the lines of "I wonder about Maya...", being deliberately vague. In light of his response to the question about Gumshoe, this seems to indicate Maya will return (as if we didn't know that already).

7. Detective Gumshoe will not be in Dual Destinies (Most likely)
When asked about Gumshoe, Eshiro said that he didn't know what Gumshoe was up to these days, and another Capcom host said something along the lines of "Well, you can't have every character come back in every single game". This means that Gumshoe probably won't appear.

8. Simon's Detective is named Detective Fulbright.
Fulbright's motto is "In Justice We Trust!". Fulbright is immune to Simon's psychological manipulation because he's too oblivious to know Simon is trying to manipulate him.

Things that Capcom said they could not answer:
When the game will be released
Cost
DLC

The guy doing the Ducktales stream has done ahead and confirmed we're not getting an exact release date... :sadshoe:

Apparently product details won't be revealed today. :edgeworth:

I'm going to try to ask anyway

I really had wanted a release date or a new trailer.

Fall 2013 is anywhere from September to December, so there's still a lot of unknowns about the release.

The new things was:
  • The english name for the new detective is Fulbright.
  • The jurist system is not going to show up

Not surprising, given that the Jurist System did nothing less than negate the eternal thorn in your side (and sustainer of player tension) of the series: insufficient evidence. Its introduction in GS4 was as strong an indication as any that Takumi intended the series to end with that game. It will be interesting to see if they even attempt to explain why this system Phoenix worked so long and hard to bring back isn't sticking around. Too open to exploitation, perhaps?

Fulbright is a real name, not fake. Assuming they spell it that way, at least.

They referred to him as Detective <Fulbright>, so I'm pretty sure that's his last name.

Yeah I'm very disappointed in this. It seemed like with the new courtroom look and the plot that the jury would have fit in there.

I just hope they actually explain it in a way that makes sense.

I was pretty disappointed in the lack of the jury system, until I realized there's a fairly simple explanation as to why the Jurist System isn't returning.

The bombing took down the courtroom that likely served a large portion of Los Angeles, so without a courtroom, LA has to fit double the cases into another courtroom somewhere else. It could very well be that, with twice the cases, there isn't enough time to go through the Jurist system, so they temporarily reinstated the Initial Trial system until the old one can be rebuilt.

That's my guess, at least. If it's been removed for good then I will flip.

That would make sense if the bomb was strong enough to close off at least half the courthouse (for structural reasons). I doubt that'd be the the reason the Jurist system was stopped, but it's a good idea nonetheless.

Also, I would think the detective's name would be Fulbright, as Fullbright shows up as a spelling error for me (and Google corrects it too).

Well, we know that at the very least the bomb caused enough damage for the old courthouse to be abandoned for the time being, since the game takes place at a different courthouse.

I really, really hope that this is the reason why (or some other explanation that I haven't thought of and doesn't involve getting rid of the Jurist system permanently). Just deciding to get rid of the Jurist system would remove half of the point of Turnabout Succession.

Considering it's one article from a relatively obscure source, it sounds suspiciously like a misinterpretation of the article, or a knee-jerk assumption on the article writer's part. It's not unreasonable to speculate that they moved to a new courthouse because the old one got bombed. However, I think it would at least have affected how Gaspen referred to the bombed courtroom in the demo. As it is, Gaspen just says that Courtroom No. 4 got bombed.

I didn't like him at all in UMvC3 but I actually thought his Objection in the english trailer for DD wasn't bad at all. in fact, I like it better than the original Objection! noise.

Having said that, we still haven't heard any cutscenes by him, so he might still not be that great.

It's not a different courthouse. Only courtroom No. 4 was bombed, and it has the same build as courtroom No. 5. What's new about them is the interior design from GS4 to GS5.

Capcom most likely rushed through development so that implementing a jury would take too much trouble. Now, I don't see why it'd be so difficult to include an anonymous group of people watching from their chambers and making a vote, but I suppose it'd be better than just a few extra lines of dialogue at the end of the trial about the jury's verdict. This game had potential for a completely new game play mechanic involving the jury's wavering opinion, but they didn't go that route. Perhaps they're saving it for a future game?

Well, the easiest way I can see for Capcom to not implement the jurist system yet is because of either the two reasons.

a) The courts still need to test the system out with more test trials, thus it's not implemented yet.
b) The dark days of law (ie corruption) prevented the jurist system from being rolled out.

Depends how they do it, but that would roll out quite nicely for me.

You bring up some good points. Politics may have a large role in this game after all. It also explains Phoenix's return to court and Edgeworth's rise in position... and possibly Maya's secret role in the plot. For them to keep her presence so hushed, she ought to have a rather spoiler-filled role, right? I hope so.

I wouldn't put it past Capcom to cut corners on implementing new game mechanics, but we go with what we get.

You guys do realize the jury trial was only a test trial in AJ? They could have easily chosen not to use it afterwards.
There are countless reasons for the writer to get rid of it, I don't really get why many of you always imagine the worst.

Pretty much this. Can anyone clarify if the game said the Jurist System was really implemented. It didn't help that Phoenix was pretty much controlling it either.

No Jury System?
WTF? I was looking forward to seeing what they'd do with that, maybe you would have to persuade the jury as well as the judge, or something.
Anyway I thought the jury system was introduced in GS4 to reflect changes in the actual law system in Japan, so why have they dropped it? It just.. doesnt make any sense!

I had a feeling they'd ignore the jurist system, as it wasn't shown in any of the initial screens, or in the demo. If that were the case, it would've been explained on the sight under the "System" section. It is a shame though. The idea of jurors, at least in one case, would have been a unique mechanic to have, much like the scrapped 'torture trials' (probably better than them...)

I'm shocked that after 6 consecutive AA games, Gumshoe has been removed! (He may be mentioned) Although I am happy that they hinted at Maya. That's 1 of the 3 that people expected to return.
Spoiler:
(The others being Gumshoe and Franziska... And Franzy did say she'd want to meet Phoenix again at the end of JFA, to give him Shelly's card, so... I wonder if they'll bring that back up)

Anyway, I'm still so psyched for this game!

Here's the thing about about the Jurist system not continuing on from 4 to 5.
Spoiler: Just in case
It took Phoenix 7 years to track down enough evidence to form a case against Kristoph, and even then, there was no decisive evidence to convict him. I'm pretty sure that, whether he wanted to reform the system or not, it was all an elaborate ploy to get Kristoph sealed away for good. After all, do you think it's a coincidence that the Jurist system was tested out on that case?
Besides, even in that case, the judge could still declare the defendant guilty without the aid of the jury there. It just overcomplicates the gameplay.

I have mixed feelings about Ema Skye not returning as a detective. After all, she only got to be detective for one game. However, I recently tried replaying the 4th game on my 3DS, and it's hard to do the fingerprints with the location of the microphone versus the first DS or the DS Lite. Aside from that, though, I had fun doing all the CSI-style work. Not all THAT attached to the character either way.

I honestly don't mind the dropping of the jurist system. Ok, maybe it's hard to explain in plot terms given how hard Phoenix fought for it, but gameplay-wise, it would have beat down the "on-the-edge" feel of the trials had they have kept it. Hopefully they come up with a good explanation as to why it's gone.

However, I recently tried replaying the 4th game on my 3DS, and it's hard to do the fingerprints with the location of the microphone versus the first DS or the DS Lite. Aside from that, though, I had fun doing all the CSI-style work. Not all THAT attached to the character either way.

Well Fulbright might be tied to Simon so it's possible that Ema might return when Edgeworth is the prosecutor.

How do I feel about this? Hmmm....
1. They BETTER HAVE A GOOD EXPLANATION for the disappearance of the Jurist System.
2. I like Fulbright. It's a real last name and it looks like it fits the the guy.
3. Maya hype is good hype.
4. Damn stepladder spammers. Of course it's coming back, damn.
5. I really need a new trailer. I really really need it.
6. I want 6 cases for some reason. Or like 7.
7. I want Sam Riegel to do a good job, and I want Scott Menville for Apollo.
8. I cannot fucking wait for this game. Hype hype hype

That's all I have to say

They said "roughly same amount of content as T&T". That would be horrible for anything more than 5 cases. It'll be 4 meaty cases or 5 cases where one (after the first one) will be shorter than the others.

Spoiler warnings, I guess, I really don't feel like putting this into spoilers...

2. The Jurist system will not be returning

Wait, what was the whole point of Apollo Justice, then, if they introduce the Jury System in that thing and then chuck it out the window immediately? Total bull, man, and that destroys my idea of the gameplay requiring me to convince the Jury onto my side. And the whole corrupt Jury thing. And the initial suspicion the Jury could have, depending on who the defendant is.

4. Simon Blackquill is a convicted prosecutor who uses psychological manipulation on his opponents and the Judge

So he's basically gonna be a dick who uses wordplays and similar to confuse opponents? How is that any different from the previous prosecutors?

5. The recurring Stepladder joke returns in Dual Destinies

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! :scratch:
Let it DIE, Capcom, let it DIE!! The joke hasn't been funny since Justice For All!

6. Maya hinted as a returning character? (No denial of Maya)
7. Detective Gumshoe will not be in Dual Destinies (Most likely)


Oh sure, bringing in Detective Gumshoe, who was Edgeworth's partner for years is just so dumb! But Maya, that little hyperactive snotball that got either kidnapped, tried for murder again and again or even was tried to get murdered herself totally has to appear in the game. Totally makes sense, Capcom.

8. Simon's Detective is named Detective Fulbright

Okay, can I just say that I find his name hilarious because - except for that extra L - that is the name of an American Law Firm?

Scott Menville? What, the guy that gave Lloyd Irving a total 12-year-old voice in Symphonia?
No thanks... he can't voice a 17 year old properly, I shudder at what he'll do with a 23 year old man.

I seem to remember AAI having as much content as T&T. Am I wrong there? Did AAi have more/less? Because now that I think about it I'd think he'd reference his own game if he was going to mention one.

I didn't want either of them back originally, but if I had to pick I'd rather have Maya back than Gumshoe. I always liked Gumshoe but I always preferred Ema as a detective and through the recent games he's become a bit of a parody of himself. I'm very happy that he's not coming back and has finally ridden himself of all of the people who make his day hard (Edgeworth, Phoenix, etc.). Maybe he bought a timeshare of some sort.

As for Maya returning, I don't think they'll try her for Murder again because its been done so many times before. Maybe she just becomes involved in a case, or ends up channeling the victim or something. I think she'll have an important role but I don't think that they will retread that much.

The fact that Gumshoe isn't returning actually gives me some confidence that the game won't be too self-referential. I think it shows restraint and hopefully that means none of the other characters we've seen enough of (Von Karma, Larry, Oldbag) will be present this time. It's not that I don't like those characters, but there are plenty of other characters who've missed out on screentime.
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.
