About Name Changes

It is well-known that all of the 40 or so names for the characters got replaced in the American version, then again in the French Version. AA3 and AA4 even had a couple of names changed for German and Spanish versions. All that so that the puns retain their meanings.

Does it warrant an addition under the Regional Changes, like the Mario Kart 3DS page?

On a side note, is the fact that Case 3-2 in AA3 got the date changed from 11-Sept-2013 (JP version) to 11-Oct-2013 (US/EU) worth a new article? Montas1992 13:02, 3 October 2012 (EDT)

I'd assume the names would be worth documenting. I definitely think there's some importance to the date change. Considering how specific the timeline can be (http://aceattorney.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline), I found it odd that they would change it. I understand that September 11th is synonymous with a terrible event in history, but do we really need to censor it in all forms of media possible? ~M64m-sig.pngM64m 19:30, 3 October 2012 (EDT)
TV Tropes has a list of Japanese -> English names and the English -> French names can be found here for 1, 2, 3, AJ, and AAI. Also, I think Juan Corrida from 2-4 is called Juan Rivera in the Spanish translation of the game. There are some other non-name differences too, I might just write down the ones I know elsewhere for now. --GyroMan (talk) 23:34, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Unused song in GBA version?

Apparently. Miles of SmashWiki 02:01, 25 July 2013 (EDT)

Is this using the correct soundfont? I'll try to look into it later. --Dr. Yay 03:43, 25 July 2013 (EDT)

GBA Versions

Do the Ace Attorney pages cover the GBA versions as well? Because the DS version was a port 4 years later, they might have gotten rid of a lot of goodies from the GBA version. Should we go treasure hunting?The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zsdrfty (talk • contribs)

According to the Bob, this article is about the DS game. Likely, we could either have an article for each version, which will likely be unneeded since I doubt they would remove things. The second option could be to have this article be about both games, possibly with a category for "Games with regional differences" if there are any. --Sgv Sth (talk) 02:38, 17 November 2014 (EST)
Also, there are some music changes. The developers made use of the DS's more advanced sequenced music capabilities. Robotortoise (talk) 01:39, 19 May 2015 (EDT)
Unfortunately I'll have to disagree with you on the GBA version not removing things. Shouts appearing on different sides of the screen depending on the character shouting and a certain animation of Phoenix waggling his pointer finger are both omitted from the DS port, to my knowledge. --In1tiate (talk) 09:01, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
