And so it ends....
I beat Phoenix Wright last night. It made me a little sad, you know? It's definately one of my favorite games--I beat it in less than a week. O.o That rarely happens with me and games, normally it takes months.
I always get sad when I beat a game that has become my favorite. Because it's over...you know? It's the end of the story, and i'm taken out of the world I had grown to almost feel at home in...I'm like that with my favorite books, too.
I WANT a sequel, and, sadder yet, I know there IS a sequel. Two of them. But I'll probably never have a chance to play them--they're for the Game Boy Advance, which...although games are still being made for it...is slowly and surely dying out as it rolls towards the inevitable next generation for it. The games have been out forever in Japan, but have never been translated here. And considering the appearantly horrible sales of Phoenix Wright (which seems odd, as far as I know it has a pretty large fan following here, and it certainly didn't get bad reviews), they're probably not going to be too motivated to translate them now, as much as I want them to. I mean, there's rumors going aroud the game's even discontinued. The fact that Phoenix Wright is no longer listed at the Capcom website sort of confirms the rumors.
We *might* get the new DS game when it comes out, but those will feature all new characters. Even though I'm sure I'll still love it, there's only a slim chance I'll be able to see the continuation of the stories of Phoenix, Maya, and Edgeworth. It really makes me sort of sad.
I'm glad they at least brought this one over, though. ^^ It's an excellent game that was blessed with an excellent localization team. I hope, if it is discontinued, there will be enough of a fan outcry to make them second-guess the decision and bring it back, or at least bring the sequels over here.
