The director of the Ace Attorney series has admitted that the success of his DS courtroom series has surprised him.
In fact, Shu Takumi told ONM that he wasn't even expecting the Phoenix Wright games to be released in the West! Responding to a question from ONM forum member hooeylewissukz, Takumi said "The Ace Attorney franchise is a materialised form of my ideals of the mystery genre... I am also a big fan of courtroom drama so I knew the first Ace Attorney would be a good game but...I wasn't expecting it to be this popular - I didn't even dream of a day Phoenix Wright went abroad!"
