Things they don't tell you about playing 1-4 according to the actual dates:

I have been playing Ace Attorney for four hours and I'm still not done with the 26th despite it being well into the early hours of the 27th already

1-1 is the best of the training levels because it’s the introduction case not just to the game but the entire series and therefore knows that it can’t rely on any previous goodwill or prior knowledge of how the mechanics or story progression works from the player, and is still enjoyable to replay because it’s written wittily and with the player in mind of carefully funneling them into the correct choices without speaking down to them, so no matter what level of proficiency you come in with, there’s always some character quirk or bit of brilliance that is enjoyable to re-experience, and is always satisfying to see the conclusion to as it feeds into the larger game as a whole; 2-1 in comparison is somewhat lacking because it has to account for new and old players alike, and so has to fall back on tropes that even in 2002 had been seen a good handful of times before, and then doesn’t stick the landing (pun intended) of its own setup by not seeing through to its conclusion in the cohesive and chronological way that 1-1 lead its audience through, thus making it a weak sequel hook as well as difficult for new players to get into the series without knowledge of the first game

But that’s just my two cents

Look, I know I already own all three of the original Ace Attorney trilogy in Japanese for DS but like

The original Ace Attorney trilogy in Japanese for GBA isn’t that expensive....

I just had the stupidest Ace Attorney name pun idea and therefore must implement it immediately

1-4 is just as much of a trip the third time around
