I can't imagine fixing such a thing could take more than a couple of minutes. Maybe I'm wrong, though. Luckily, I have a certain reverence for translation errors, haha. It's not something we see often anymore.

Nah, man. It's hard getting these things right.
It's not like this is the single most seen evidence in the series or anything!

Fuck digital and fuck Capcom. My DS games work just fine.

LOL maybe only having the German translation to play for the first one wasn't such a bad thing after all.
j/k attponey is hilarious, I need to see this for myself

Posted this in another thread the other day lol. The climax to case 1-5 in the iOS versions. All the buildup to this moment and you get this. (Killer's name blurred to prevent spoilers.)
I just posted that a couple posts up!
So you did! :O Oops.
After playing that translation I like to imagine his breakdown is not a result of the accusation, but a result of the horrible grammar.

If you've never played the series, then this collection is a good start.
I was waiting for this announcement. I guess I'll import the Japanese version since no physical western release 
Although, I'm a little apprehensive hearing about the typos XD Eh, I guess it doesn't really matter since I want to buy it more for collector's purposes rather than to replay them.
The only other problem with importing it is the chance that Capcpom might take (potentially) lower sales of the re-re-re-released digital trilogy as some sort of indicator of the AA series popularity in the west... -_-

The 3DS is region locked though.

I think I'll stick with my DS versions, but if it was my first time playing I'd totally be all over this, believe me.
I don't even hate the new art like some people do. But after spending so much time with the old art, it's just comforting.
edit: I take it back, Phoenix's face looks kind of weird

Is there anything to justify the mark-up? I mean I got the iOS version for like half that. :\

It's not a mobile game.
Aside from that, it's apparently a much less crappy port.
I don't know, there's something about the original Ds series sprite work that was just mesmerizing. I could spend hours looking at facial expressions and idle animations. It really showed how much care went into creating the characters.
I'm not knocking the new artstyle but it just looks plastic like to me. I can't in all honesty say I like it, but that may be because I played the sprite trilogy first. So I can see how people who like clean graphics, sharp colors, etc. might enjoy this.

I think the problem is the DS/GBA sprites did so much with so little and the iOS/3DS sprites are doing so little with so much.
1. Haven't seen slowdown yet. (I only played 3 cases of 1, and 1 case of 3 so far).
2. Apparently they're based off of the HQ versions from the Gyakuten Saiban Sound Box. I don't have the iOS version so I can't do a direct comparison.
3. Also haven't noticed any typos but I'll let everyone know. Is there a list of typos in the iOS version anywhere?
I also do think the new art doesn't look nearly as bad on an actual 3DS XL than the screenshots.
I'd prefer a retail release, but I don't know if I have the strength to not buy this.
Oh, this is an apt observation.

As hilarious as these terrible typos are, I hope beyond hope that they are aware of them and fix as many as possible prior to release of the 3DS version.
I have no idea how typos like this get introduced. Did someone manually retype the text into the iOS version? Copy and paste is a thing, yo.

They aren't present in the 3DS release (the JP one at least). The usual DS translation issues seem to be present, though.
I may be wrong, but I think that the iOS version used the text from the English option in the Japanese DS games, which I don't believe had fully been edited to iron out the typos. I seem to remember reading that the "the killer you" text was in that one, too.
Good to hear the Japanese version of this release seems to use the North American DS text, which - while still having some errors - is still a lot better!
Too bad it'll probably have fixed "The miracle never happen" like the EU version did. That one's a classic!

No body would want that. The localization has been fantastic. Hell even several fan translations of AAI2 play off the localization well.
Glad to hear this.
Interesting possibility. I played through most of the English releases, as well as the Japanese releases, but never thought to play through the English option on the Japanese releases, since I assumed they were identical to the English releases.

Why are we getting this before Phenoix vs Layton? I'm starting to worry that I'll have to import just to play that.

How do you know that? I don't think Level-5 has announced Layton vs Ace Attorney release date yet, and I wouldn't be too surprised if that's shown on the Nintendo Digital Event.
Being fan translated.

Looking past the typo, this is just so poorly designed. There needs to be padding to the left of the text in the evidence description, the typeface is inappropriate for in-game text (for one thing, it's way too bold), and in the background, you can see that the dialog is slightly off center vertically and the box is way too wide for it.
The games were so polished on the DS. This stuff would bug me the entire time I was playing it.

Misread. I thought that this was being released this month. I am still worried.

I know I'm late here but I'm playing the iOS version now and that typo isn't in there. I haven't noticed others yet either, but I'm not far along. So they must have fixed at least some of the typos in a recent update. Hopefully this 3DS version is typo-free from the get-go.
