It has been four years since Apollo Justice hit retail, but in terms of in-game time passage, the events of the fifth main entry, Dual Destinies, take place a year later with Phoenix Wright ready to step back into the ring, earning his Attorney's badge once more after shaking off the cobwebs that had built up after being disbarred. Issues that fans may have with that aside, the pertinent point has to be whether or not this lives up to the series' heritage. Thankfully, in order to get the fifth title - the first on 3DS - out as quickly as possible, Capcom has decided the safest route is bringing Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies out as an eShop exclusive. Despite critical acclaim across the first three DS remakes of the GBA originals, as well as plaudits for the DS-specific fourth entry, Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice, sales still never hit dizzy heights, leaving the fate of the series' future here in the balance. It was only when the first game was remade for Nintendo DS that Capcom finally gave it a shot over in the US, with a helping hand from Nintendo in Europe. Not familiar with the Ace Attorney series? Well, you can be somewhat forgiven as the games have never quite hit the same lofty heights in the West as over in Japan, where it began life on the Game Boy Advance under its local name of Gyakuten Saiban (which translates as 'Turnabout Trial' in literal terms).
