Full version synopsis[]

Should the demo's synopsis be substituted for the full version's, or should a note be made of the demo version in a subsection? ImperfectXIII (talk) 21:08, November 10, 2013 (UTC)

There are significant differences between the demo and the final product, so it might be worth noting them. capefeather (talk) 22:16, November 10, 2013 (UTC)
Ok um But we didn't do that with Turnabout Visitor granted it was more similar to the actual game than this one but is it extreamly necessary? Franzyfan1998 (talk) 02:11, November 11, 2013 (UTC)
If there are any differences worth noting between the demo and full versions of Turnabout Visitor, they should be noted. But the demo and full versions of Turnabout Countdown start from different points of view, have different lines of dialogue and pieces of evidence, and the demo makes no mention of Candice Arme. With that many differences, I don't think filling the Trivia section with "in the demo, this happens; in the full version, that happens" would be good enough. ImperfectXIII (talk) 02:30, November 11, 2013 (UTC)
But...only one of these versions of canon. Obviously the full version is canon, but the demo version didn't happen. Wouldn't it be a little confusing for people, who haven't played the game itself, and read this? They'd be wondering constantly, if what they're reading really happened in-universe. If we are gonna do this, we should at least have some sort of note that the demo version isn't canon. It seems like an obvious point, but it can save confusion none-the-less. 2.26.102.204 07:14, November 11, 2013 (UTC)

I would think that the demo stuff would be in a section separate from the canon stuff in an obvious way. Maybe it could even have its own page. capefeather (talk) 01:07, November 12, 2013 (UTC)

Inconsistency?[]

Just to clarify from my edit summery, I don't think the crowd evacuating from the courtroom is an inconsistency. We don't know if those doors were there in the old design, we don't really know where they lead to, and the scene is "shot" in such a way that the ones you see stumbling out at the end may have left through the main entrance. That's without mentioning the apparent drastic design changes to the courthouse (glass roof anyone?). - Strabo412 (talk) 22:41, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

Lack of glass roof earlier can be explained by the others courtroom being on lower floors, pretty much. That is... was any other courtroom, aside from Courtroom no. 4 confirmed to be on the last floor?

I don't know, its was just something that I wanted to point out, since I saw lots of DD cutsecene stuff recerencing Turnabout Reminiscence's architecture. - Sligneris (talk) 22:47, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

But there could just as easily have been a glass roof in the old design (considering that we have seen CR4 before in the series). Hell, the entire courtroom could have a glass ceiling and we wouldn't know! :P That actually sounds quite nice, although it would be a pain in the arse to clean. I'm actually curious as to what you mean by "DD cutscene stuff referencing Turnabout Reminiscence's architecture" though. The two designs seem fairly different to me (old: Media:Courtroom 2012.png and new: Media:Img 3d pict02p.jpg). - Strabo412 (talk) 23:11, August 22, 2014 (UTC)
The courthouse was remodeled! Besides that it should be noted that the courtroom from Turnabout Reminiscense was Courtroom No. 3, not Courtroom No. 4! Also Courtroom No. 3 was on the thrid floor as stated in TR. Clearly No. 4 is not the only on on the top floor. - Franzyfan1998 (talk) 23:25, August 22, 2014 (UTC)
It was role not a whole lot of an inconsistency, rather an interesting fact to note regarding courtroom building. Stop saying it was remodeled, because I do know it was, except I don't see how it prevents anyone from mentioning things from the game - Sligneris (talk) 10:22, August 23, 2014 (UTC)

9/11 attacks trivia[]

"The concept for this case was intended for inclusion in the first game but was scrapped for it's October 2001 release, due to the terrorist attack which destroyed the World Trade Center in September the same year. Shu Takumi believed that a swift Western localization was likely and feared that defending a suspect over the destruction of a building in a bombing would be something North American players wouldn't be comfortable with."

Is this actually accurate? Currently the only source for the trivia is a wikipedia article, where the trivia has been added but is in itself entirely unsourced. The information pertaining to the trivia, including Takumi's belief that a swift western localization was very likely, are accurate so I don't want to write it off entirely but it seems suspect to me. Idkanymore23 (talk) 22:05, June 19, 2017 (UTC)

I asked around in the Court Records discord once and part of it seems to be true, though I was never given sources for it. I figure the whole thing should just get a "citation needed" tag for now. capefeather (talk) 23:55, June 19, 2017 (UTC)

Phoenix’s second trial[]

I’m not sure if this should be labeled as Phoenix’s second trial since getting his badge back. I just finished Turnabout reclaimed yesterday and it wasn’t a single trial it was two. The first for Orla and the second for Sasha. While both were for the murder of Jack they were still two separate trials. --Volectro (talk) 01:43, January 8, 2018 (UTC)

Include anime cutscenes in transcript?[]

I've noticed the transcript pages ignore the anime cutscenes. If you'd be okay with it, I'd be willing to add them in. Was it a deliberate decision to not include them in the transcripts?--SuperbowserX (talk) 08:56, August 5, 2020 (UTC)
