Bug stomping

henke37 — Mon, 28 Mar 2016 16:21:46 GMT

We are running around in panic trying to find all the bugs, but at the moment we are simply unable to catch them all.

As such we are asking for help in finding them. Please post your reports here and we will do our best to catch them before launch.

Great Ace Attorney Chronicles Releases

Toatali — Thu, 29 Jul 2021 20:49:46 GMT

The Great Ace Attorney Adventures, originally released in Japan under the name "Dai Gyakuten Saiban (大逆転裁判)" was first released in Japan in July 2015. The game was first teased in a Japanese only Nintendo Direct a year before that, with only the information that Shu Takumi was working on a new Ace Attorney project. With only one game left untranslated thus far, non Japanese Ace Attorney fans would have had no reason to believe that they would be left waiting six whole years for the game to finally be translated and officially released worldwide.

For those who have played the game, either in the original Japanese or through the fan made translation worked on tirelessly throughout the waiting period, this new release offers the chance to experience the adventures of Ryunosuke and Herlock Sholmes afresh, in beautiful HD on Switch, PS4 or Steam.

For those who weren't able to play the games before, today marks the ever exciting release of two brand new Ace Attorney games, ones which have been teased and hyped up for longer than the gap between any Japanese and English release in the series so far.

The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is now available on Switch, Playstation and Steam in some regions, and will release within the next day in other timezones. You can follow us here or on twitter for any news about the series post release of this game, but for right now - The game is afoot!

AA News Roundup

Toatali — Wed, 17 Jul 2019 10:24:24 GMT

If it seems all quiet on the Ace Attorney front, that's because it has been. However, there's still been a little trickle of news coming out of Japan.

- If you're a big fan of the lads from The Great Ace Attorney and are willing to pay a staggering price, you can now purchase 75 cm plushies of Ryu and Asogi from eCapcom in Japan.

- There was an Ace Attorney rock concert a couple of days ago, and you can see a snippet of rehearsal footage for that here (including some impressive accordion playing to make Weird Al proud).

- Don't forget that the 2019 orchestra concert CD comes out on the 24th - you can purchase it here or here, and thanks to WarChild on the forums, the track list seems to be

Come watch E3 with us!

Toatali — Tue, 04 Jun 2019 13:29:53 GMT

Although not strictly Ace Attorney related, at around this time of year a bunch of AA fans gather together to watch companies that aren't Capcom showcase their latest offerings, all while asking each other where all the lawyers are.

That's right, it's E3 time, and as always Court Records will be hosting live viewings of each of the major conferences. While we don't normally expect AA news at any of these except maybe Nintendo's, it's always a fun time chatting about the more general state of the gaming world with like-minded people, so please make sure to join us there.

Here's a list of timings for each of the E3 showings, but also make sure to follow us on twitter to see when we're going live. As always, the streams will be hosted on our cytube page.

Ace Attorney Trilogy HD Out Worldwide

Toatali — Tue, 09 Apr 2019 15:59:08 GMT

The new version of the Ace Attorney Trilogy is now available worldwide on consoles after its Japanese release, and for the first time on Steam. There's a new trailer for the game here, which confirms additional languages coming to the game in August.

You can buy the game on Switch, PS4, Xbox One and Steam.

AA Trilogy Western Release Date

Toatali — Thu, 28 Feb 2019 10:05:23 GMT

The Western release date for the HD remaster of the Ace Attorney Trilogy has been revealed as April 9th by Capcom. The game will be digital only in the West, and will release with English and Japanese language support, with French and German to be added in a post-launch update. April 9th will also be the first time the game will release on Steam, and it's probably the delay in this version of the game that is causing a slight delay in the game's Western release. PS4 and Steam versions of the game come with a pre-order bonus wallpaper.

You can read more about the game's Western release from Capcom here.

Ace Attorney Trilogy released in Japan

Toatali — Wed, 20 Feb 2019 17:19:15 GMT

Well, the time has finally come - an Ace Attorney game has been released on the new generation of consoles. Of course, the excitement of this occasion is dampened slightly for fans of the series, as this is the port of a trilogy that's already received five (or more, it's a lot to keep track of) ports and is playable on everything from your phone to your 3DS. But this at least looks to be the cleanest, most extensive port yet, and its availability on most modern platforms means that the reach of the trilogy now extends further than ever.

The PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch versions of this game launch today in Japan, with the Steam version to follow at a later date. An English release has been announced to come out sometime later this year (last minute update: the release date for the English language version will be announced next week), but if you can't wait, the game does have English language support.

It may not be the new Ace Attorney game we were all clamouring for, but hopefully it'll be a way to get new fans into the series, and a way for old fans to revisit the original trilogy.

Nintendo Direct 13/02 and News Roundup

Toatali — Tue, 12 Feb 2019 14:11:57 GMT

A new Nintendo Direct has been announced for air tomorrow, and as always Court Records will be hosting a stream of the Direct at http://cytube.court-records.net/r/CR. Although Ace Attorney news is unlikely, we may possibly see a release date announcement for the HD Trilogy in the West.

The Direct airs at 2pm PT, 5pm ET, 10pm GMT and 11pm CET.

In addition, if you don't follow our twitter, you might have missed some smaller items of Ace Attorney related news, including the fact that the soundtracks for most of the games have been recently released on Spotify. You can find them by searching for 'Capcom Sound Team'.

In order to promote the AA Trilogy remaster, Capcom has also released a remaster of an old Ace Attorney Investigations trailer, which features the Steel Samurai theme song with lyrics. You can find that here.

Hope to see some of you on the Direct stream tomorrow!

First4Figures Phoenix Wright revealed

Toatali — Sat, 17 Nov 2018 12:58:10 GMT

After first being teased way back in 2014, First 4 Figures has finally unveiled its Phoenix Wright statue, which opens for pre-orders on Friday 23rd November. You can find out how to pre-order the figure and watch a short video on F4F's website here (but be warned, they're usually on the pricey side). Even if you don't preorder, I think it's a promising sign that we're finally seeing some AA merch widely available outside Japan.

Depending on which version you buy, it comes with a copy of the game, a soundtrack CD, a drama CD, a mini canvas art piece, a buildable Blue Badger kit and even some Steel Samurai trading cards. You can order them here!

General feedback thread

Bolt Storm — Wed, 01 Jun 2016 03:31:06 GMT

Got something that isn't a bug, feature, or styling suggestion? Or maybe you just want to sound off in general about the redesign as it goes along? Consider this an open feedback thread to chat about the redesign in general.

Feature and styling suggestions

Bolt Storm — Wed, 01 Jun 2016 03:28:02 GMT

As stated many, many, many times, this is a work-in-progress beta! That said, we feel we have a pretty good grip on the functionality and style for the site going forward...

...But maybe we don't? If you have a feature you think would really improve the site, or if there's some piece of styling that's absolutely ruining your experience, let us know in this thread! (Do note that some pages, like the character index at time of this posting, are totally without styling, so reporting those is a bit of a no-op!)

Navbar content

henke37 — Tue, 31 May 2016 14:55:39 GMT

Feel free to discuss the navbar here. Let us know our prioritizations are right and the correct items are easily accessible.

Tinkering with sprite displays

henke37 — Fri, 06 May 2016 18:00:49 GMT

This week I have been tinkering with the sprite animation displays. I am driving everything from the database now. But the visual alignment isn't quite finished. Especially not when it comes to the poll block. Please excuse the mess as we figure out how CSS works.

Experimenting with newlines in bbcode

henke37 — Thu, 28 Apr 2016 17:38:34 GMT

I've done some rather experimental changes to how bbcode interacts with newlines. This is rather tricky code, so please test various combinations of tags and newlines.

Adding in the character animations

henke37 — Sun, 27 Mar 2016 08:29:26 GMT

Today I'm adding the character animations to the system. Someone less talented would waste hours manually linking things up. Me? I use smart shell scripts and sql queries to do things in bulk.

Welcome to the beta!

henke37 — Sat, 26 Mar 2016 13:36:43 GMT

We in the redesign team are proud to present this beta of the redesign. We hope to bring court-records.net into the current century while also offering many new features.
