Ace Attorney

[The 7th Number]

Quick question about the ace attorney games. Are they made to be played in order?

 

[Homerun17]

They have references to the previous ones you won't get if you haven't played the other ones......

 

[machoman_93]

They should be played in order but its fine if you don't. Its just that they make references to past cases in past games sometimes.

I would definitely want to play them in order, but like they said, that's just me. The first game has a rad bonus case made just for the DS. The first three are ports from the Game Boy Advance games, only the first one has anything extra.

If you can, play them in order. You don't have to to enjoy them, but you're gonna spoil and/or not get some things depending on how you play them.

Yeah, I too would recommend playing them in order as it is more fun that way. I need to pick up the last one (numero 4) that just came out.

Its hard to find the first one for less than 30. I dont want to pay that much. Id rather move to the 2nd one for 15

the first 3 ace attorney games are being re-released in japan next month at a 2,000 yen price point. you can pre-order them at play asia for $19, so that might be a relatively economical option for the first one.

All the games except Apollo Justice(Gyakuten Saiban 4) have an english option. But after 1, you don't get any price advantage with importing. And if for some reason you ever want a US copy, Capcom's store sells them new for 29.99

You can always pick up the Ace games at Capcom during a Con (i.e. SD Comic-Con, etc.). They also sell the Ace pointer stylus, but that always sells out immediately or has long lines to get and I haven't gotten a chance to pick one up yet.
