Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Samurai” (Phoenix Wright – Case 3)
“Turnabout Samurai” is easily the most controversial case in the first Ace Attorney game – most think it birthed the infamous “Case Three Syndrome”, while others (including myself) find it charming and harmless … but will it hold up to a intensive retrospective?
