New faces and places in Gyakuten Kenji screens

There are some simply lovely new screens featuring next year's biggest hero, Miles Edgeworth, but they're a bit spoilery, so realize that you're entering the gallery at your own risk. And you know you want to. You want to see. And why? Because otherwise, everyone who doesn't import Gyakuten Kenji will probably still be mooning over screenshots this time next year.

Officially no idea what part of that was considered a spoiler, unless you can read Japanese.

OBJECTION! I've always felt that media items that are revealed before the game is released don't constitute spoilers because the company intends for the consumer to view these things. It's part of the overall marketing strategy. To each his own, though.
And I should add that I'm hopeful for a smaller localization delay than there was between the Japanese and NA releases of the PW games. After all, after the series was picked up for NA release, most of the delay for Apollo Justice was attributable to the fact that Capcom had three text-heavy games to translate in short succession. By the time Gyakuten Saiban 4 came out in Japan, Capcom was probably still wading through Justice for All and hadn't even started with Trials and Tribulations.

Let this be their lesson not to make lame characters replace our favorite main characters.
Don't get me wrong, Apollo was -ok-, but he wasn't main character worthy. I did like the new humor, though.
"*Shows Phoenix Trucy's Panties*
Phoenix: As a concerned father, I really have to wonder what you're still doing with my daughter's panties.
Apollo: Uh-oh! Better hide these.."
"It's actually called a Step-Ladder."

Actually, they knew the pitfalls early on and considered not giving us Apollo Justice at all. I was hesitant at first, but by the end of it I loved the game just about as much as the ones with Phoenix.
There wasn't a lesson to be learned: "Japan finds these changes more acceptable than we do," is common knowledge to their developers/publishers.
And the step ladder joke spans a few games.

Yeah, I just thought I should mention it considering it's -the- Phoenix Wright joke. Why think I'd complain about Apollo if I'd never played any of the others? (: (I've beaten all of them)

Yes, but will the japanese game includes a English version ?

Almost certainly not. The only reason the JP versions of AA, JFA, and TaT did was that they were ports of a GBA game, and as such they could take the time to translate before the JP release. In fact, this was actually a selling point.

Oh crap. Another year waiting for a new GS game to hit the shores. Fantastic.
Thnx for the answer ! ;)

I want Gyakuten Kenji in my hands, NOW! Damn it!
One question: I've just read the article "2008's Biggest Blips: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney" by JC Fletcher and I would like to know: how did he edit those images? I've found a Phoenix Wright Generator online (http://objection.mrdictionary.net/index.php) but the graphics don't look as polished. Is there any way to contact JC Fletcher so that he can let me know?
