Description

Take on the role of the titular Phoenix Wright, a rookie lawyer ready for his first case. Learn the ropes, carefully examine evidence, and if the solution doesn't seem to present itself right away, press your witnesses for more information until they slip up and create a contradiction with the evidence.

Phoenix Wright is an enhanced port of Gyakuten Saiban. This version features all of the cases from the Game Boy Advance release, with the addition of a fifth case, which is as long as the four previous cases put together. The fifth case makes extensive use of the DS' special features, such as the microphone and the ability to examine inventory in 3D using the stylus. As well as the courtroom action, Phoenix will also get to investigate in the field and interrogate people who were near the crime scene.

Alternate Titles

  • "逆转裁判:新生的逆转" -- Chinese spelling (simplified)
  • "逆転裁判 蘇る逆転" -- Japanese spelling
  • "Gyakuten Saiban: Yomigaeru Gyakuten" -- Japanese title

Trivia

If the game's language is set to Japanese and the game is started with the Gyakuten Saiban cartridge in the GBA slot of the DS, the first four cases will automatically be as if they have been completed, allowing to play the DS exclusive case straight away.
