Ł2.99 is pretty cheap for a five years old game, but playing the game MADE for DS and double screen fitted onto iPhone felt cheaply done.

Could have properly ported it over.

Still for those WHO havent played Phoenix Wright and got an iPhone, you now have the chance!

The Phoenix Wright games have always been a great deal of fun. While I don't care much for iPhones and the like, I can't argue with them getting out to a larger crowd.

It wasn't 'Made for DS', it as made for the Gameboy Advance and ported, though the GBA version never saw the light of day outside Japan.

I've been after this on DS for ages but didn't want to pay full price for it as its an old game (and I couldn't find it anywhere for less than Ł30 if they happened to have it in stock)

So for Ł2.99 and meaning I don't have to bother with my DS is fantastic, been playing it on the commute and I love it. Bargaintastic!

Ł2.99 is a fantastic price for this game. I'll be buying it as soon as I get home from work ( >20mb need wifi ).

The description says "5 original GBA cases" - but the 5th case was made specifically for the DS, wasn't it? Confusing.

The Ace Attorney games are awesome and yeah, if you haven't got any previous version (I got all of them on the DS so it's not relevant for me) and can get this one do so!

Buy this game - you get to cross-examine a BIRD in court!

Does this include Rise From the Ashes? If so, that's a terrific deal. That and case four are two of the best in the series - very long, complex and simply awesome.

Any chance of an Android port? Otherwise I'll have to get an iPod touch for this...

The DS concessions are pretty weird with the GIANT progression covering half the screen. Even so it's 3 quid for Phoenix Wright, even thought I've got the DS version it's still a bit of a bargain.

"appears to be a straight port of the original DS game"

Word is the iPhone version has instant save/load, which the DS version didn't have.

@EarlBassett

You are court-ing controversy with that pun.

(sorry as well)

I was just recommending this game to my brother two days ago.

Not his cup of tea but I'll be more likely able to persuade him to try it on the iPhone.

Now that's an argument for pitching the iPhone as a competitor for consoles.

But would my appetite for a good iPhone game be sustained?

Now that it's no longer boxed copy only and available in digi format, does that mean case dismissed?

Great, I just bought the Wiiware version because I thought at 10 euros it would've been a nice deal. I wonder if they're going to bring the other 2 Phoenix Wright titles to the apple store?
