Calling all attorneys - this is not a drill! No, not even a Gavin hair drill. After three long years, the English-speaking world finally gets a chance to step back into court with today's release of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies! The game will be going up on eShops around the world throughout the day - for those in North America, you can expect to see it up around 12 PM EST.
When Apollo Justice was released back in 2008, I don't think any of us thought it'd take quite so long to get the next chapter of the Ace Attorney saga. We've had our sidetracks with frilly prosecutors and gentlemanly professors (whoops, guess that one's next year), but with the release of Dual Destinies, the series is back in full form.
As always, the Court-Records forums are open for business - head over to the Themis Legal Academy sub-section to chat anything and everything DD-related, or present your evidence - sorry, fanworks - in our creative forums. All are welcome, old and new, and the C-R staff is committed to making sure this our site is a fun and friendly resource for you all. (Fun and friendliness will be enforced by Proto Badger squads as appropriate.) Our only request? Keep the spoilers tagged, and be cool, people!
I could carry on more, but really - there's testimonies that need cracking and defendants that need saving. See you all in court!

Thanks Bolty, that was an awesome post, and thank you and the rest of the awesome staff team that keep this great website up and running.
I have not been part of the Ace Attorney fandom for too long, it's only been about 2 years for me, but those 2 years have been freaking awesome, and when i first heard about AA5 in September 2012, I was pretty dang excited.
I know I don't post here very often, but I do lurk a lot, you guys kinda feel like a 2nd family, and I hope that I can get a chance to post more, and get to know you guys.
Thanks C-R, can't wait to play this game.
I plan to do a review of it when I get a chance, but for now I need sleep, and when I come home tomorrow I will download and play the heck out of this ^^

I was introduced to Ace Attorney through Apollo Justice. I bought it about a week after it was released because I read a Nintendo Power story about it, and as a Law & Order fan a law game sounded cool. It ended up being one of the best gaming experiences of my life. I loved the characters: Apollo, Trucy, Klavier, and of course Phoenix. I experienced Phoenix differently than most; most played the original trilogy first, meeting Phoenix as an inexperienced lawyer and then seeing him suddenly switch to a quiet, strange piano player who seemed to aggravate Apollo as much as help him. I on the other hand, met the older Phoenix first, then went back and lived through his early days. It was great to go back and see the origin of this character I had met in AJ, and it meant that since the AJ Phoenix was the first one I "met" I didn't have some of the issues others did with Phoenix's development.
I played through the 4 available GS games and then waited anxiously for GS5. Over the years AAI and PLvsAA were announced, and while those were both awesome announcements, I was still anxiously waiting for the return of Apollo. Then GS5 was announced in January 2012 and after that news seemed to just speed by really fast. It's weird we're finally here. It's weird that when I play through a marathon Turnabout Succession won't be the final chapter anymore.
I had a lot of ideas for what I wanted in a GS5, most of the time I just was waiting for a GS2 for Apollo. The course that GS5 took was surprising, but I'm glad it turned out the way it did. I see the return of Phoenix, the character I played most throughout the games; Edgeworth is back; And of course, Apollo is back. The new characters seem great. I think it's going to be a very enjoyable experience.
I'm not able to buy it tomorrow; Earliest I'll be buying it is early November. That's ok; I still have to finish GK2, the manga, and Apollo Justice first. But I'm so excited that I'll be able to finally see the return to the "apollo" era and the return of the classic GS gameplay.
With that, I say
And have fun playing, everybody! I know I sure will!

That sucks. I woke up this morning hoping to download it before I went to work. Now I guess I have to wait a little longer.

There is nothing indicating that the page refreshes itself as you are looking at it. You may be able to exit and re-enter the game page to see the updated listing though.
