Apollo Justice Ace Attorney Ports to 3DS
August 9, in the year of our Lord 2017 --
The fourth game in the courtroom drama series, Apollo Justice:
Ace Attorney, is coming to the Nintendo 3DS system for the first
time. Originally launched for the Nintendo DS system in 2008,
this latest announcement means that all six of the mainline Ace
Attorney titles can be experienced on the Nintendo 3DS family of
systems. Court will be in session this November when Apollo
Justice: Ace Attorney will be available to download across North
America and Europe on the Nintendo eShop for $19.99.
Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney coming to Nintendo 3DS means that
budding attorneys can see all the courtroom action from Apollo’s
early days as a defense attorney in upgraded 3D graphics.
Forensic investigation techniques play a vital part in analyzing
the evidence to help solve some of the game’s mysteries.
Utilizing the features of Nintendo 3DS, players can dust some
crime scenes to search for fingerprints and also examine certain
objects in a full 360 degrees to uncover hidden evidence! Will
the fingerprints match any of the suspects on file and uncover
new truths?
These investigation techniques combined with Apollo Justice’s
magical bracelet that gives him the unique ability to detect
lies during witness testimonies create a thrilling investigative
journey.
In addition to the upgraded new look for Nintendo 3DS, this
release includes the Japanese version of the game, allowing
players to switch between the Japanese and English versions.
More than just an alternative language option, keen eyes will be
able to spot some differences in some background signs and art
between the Japanese and English versions. Text skip options
will also be available from the start.
Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney takes place years after the events
of the previous series title, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney –
Trials and Tribulations, and consists of several compelling
cases where the protagonist Apollo Justice must fight to defend
his innocent clients accused of murder. Upon successfully
completing the game’s first case, Apollo is asked to join
disbarred attorney Phoenix Wright and work alongside Phoenix’s
adopted daughter, Trucy. The pair go on to solve a series of
quirky crimes including the theft of a noodle cart!
