Oh, that sucks. Well, not like I have an option for japanese text.

Yeah, there's a couple winks. It's nothing significant really. If you already have the trilogy it wouldn't hurt to play them first.
Barely. There are a small number of very small references IIRC (having played through the first game of this collection). It's well and truly stand alone. If you want to start with this one, do so. But the original trilogy is legendary for a reason, so if you want to start there, you absolutely should. It's totally up to you. Either way you're in for an amazing time.
You can directly skip to any chapter in any episode you want, so nothing is missable.
The more complex achievements even have a list of items that get checked off.
I actually read them despite not having played the second game. I don't feel spoiled, though. Probably another case were only people who already know what the spoiler is about can be "spoiled".
...
Of course you don't feel spoiled, you haven't heard the question it spoils yet. Just because the spoiler isn't something blatant like "Exposed the killer *person* " doesn't mean it isn't a spoiler.
Genuinely curious; Why did you feel the need to tell me this? I KNOW it's a spoiler but I'm not gonna explain why because...it's a spoiler...
Like, what do you want me to say?
Ok, I think I will start with the original trilogy first and see how I like the games. I'm new to the Ace Attorney games.
Thanks!
I imagine full voiceovers would be way too expensive for a small game like this, considering the sheer amount of text and the numerous characters.
Also, half the fun is imagining the voices inside your head. The comedic timing of the text boxes and sounds is genius, at least in the original trilogy. Larry Butz etc. would now work with voice-overs. Actually, the cut-scenes with voices in the newer games are mostly cringe, I think.
Agreed. I feel like a lot of the charm these games and characters have would be lost if everyone was fully voiced tbh.
Ugh, I keep forgetting I haven't bought a monitor for my PS4 (I just moved in to LA without any TV), so I won't be able to play this launch time.
What's a good monitor these days that I can use as a second monitor for my MacBook Pro (the touchpad one). I also do some video editing

About to boot it up, so excited! BTW those waiting for the digital Ace Attorney Turnabout Collection, it becomes active on the store once TGAAC releases.
Can you remote play on your phone? If your internet's good you can use that
Edit: oops, forgot you'll need a screen to set it up. My bad

Fair enough. Although I saw someone on here saying the colors/saturation might be off on the switch version? anyone confirm that's true?
I played AA 1 though 4, should I give the 5th and 6th game a shot? Is iOS a good way to play 6?
The way the AA series handles "text" is magical(also the use of music is unmatched), it would be a downgrade for it to be voice acted.
It's innovative but mostly replaceable. With the exception of the opening case of SoJ, however, which truly does use the text sounds in a way that wouldn't have anywhere near the same effect with voiceovers.
Yes, they're worth playing. I don't love 5, but 6 is really quite fun. The iOS versions for both of those games are excellent ports.
In my experience, there's no way anyone can be "grumpy" playing an Ace Attorney game. They're like, the definition of delightful.
I imagine the next Ace Attorney will have full VA, at least for the trials.
I'm ready to see what everyone thinks! I loved this set of games. Will likely play through the localizations, see what Janet's team was able to come up with!
From the IGN India preview of the PC version:
So 30fps everywhere. Guessing that's due to game logic being tied to frame rate
I'd be stunned if they even went that far. That's where a good deal of the chitchat is happening, and these games don't exactly have Capcom's full confidence. They couldn't even shore up the resources (people, time, and money) for some of the extra content the dev team wanted for this collection, e.g., a hint system rather than the story mode, which was a debug feature turned into a gameplay option.
Besides the sheer amount of text, the games also program animations to the text roll, and I imagine that poses its own challenges for voice acting. The voiced court segments 6 had the characters speaking very slowly.
Is there going to be a physical version of the full 5-game set?
This might be a longshot, but does anyone know if the white flashes can be turned off?
I was watching a review and had to stop because during the dialogue exchanges the screen kept flashing white which gives me migraines. I had to play FF7 in 30 fps because of this.

It's worth waiting until someone can test for you, but this blog post shows that a screen flash toggle has been added to the menu.
There's one in Japan, but not overseas.
That's promising, thanks. I'll wait to be sure, but if so, I'm sold. Game looks great.

I'm playing in handheld mode on Switch and it looks good.
Disabling screen flash is in the game. I've played a bit both with and without it, you can toggle it from the main menu options before starting or via pause during the game at any time.

Theres definitely a 'Screen Flashes' on and off toggle in the options menu. I've just seen it but haven't tried it
My gamestop pre-order shipped today, slated for delivery tomorrow. Very excited, will be going into this 80% blind.
I'm so ready for this.
I got myself in the right frame of mind today by blasting through fellow 1800s attorney simulator, Aviary Attorney, boy that went from "haha birb ace attorney" to some serious business real fast, I'll have to go back through and try and get myself a non crummy ending after GAA
Indeed though it served its purpose, I'm ready

Are you playing on Switch? If so that's really cool as I was expecting a random afternoon unlock instead of midnight.
Would this game be of any interest for fans of courtroom dramas/true crime? Me and my girlfriend love Dateline/48 hours/ 20-20, and we especially love seeing how the lawyers create stories out of the evidence to defend/prosecute. We've thought about how a lawyer videogame would be very cool. Does this pull it off? Also does it have full voice acting, that's sort of needed for us to play games together.
