My last discussion didn't open users up so I made another one talking about the series on Wii, Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS.
Perhaps if there's a difference between the Ace Attorney series and the western series like Law and Order which was popular in the 90's, is the way the stories were told and finding a unique way to get to the truth. The plots maybe black and white but the characters in the anime can be absurd because of the magic behind it that even impossible situations can also be resolved.
I myself have recently checked the anime series on YouTube to see what I've missed and my interest really is what makes this videogame series so special. Most recently, there's one Japanese movie called "Ace Attorney" made in 2012 from Capcom. It really deals with the first albeit the changes to make the real life adaptation work. Check out that movie since it works really well without taking too much of its core value.
As for the videogame series, you can't help but enjoy seeing the court cases dealing with wild characters and turning the courthouse into a house of laughter. If I have an opinion on this, I'd like the Ace Attorney series to go on the Nintendo consoles for the first time like most recently the Nintendo Switch and maybe have a character battle of wits with each other. It's never done but it will someday. You don't have to be a lawyer to enjoy this game, just find a way to get out of this absurdity to get a "not guilty" verdict unless you're dealing with the real villain that seriously needs a "guilty" verdict.
I hope once more for you gamers to share your thoughts on the series. Don't be shy. Try those games out, watch anime and real life movie adaptation and tell me what you think. Thank you.
