Question about the Phoenix Wright Games - Which one to buy first?

So the Phoenix Wright games are now on sale in the 3ds e-shop and I always wanted to play them, but I never wanted to spend 30 bucks on them. Now they are a lot cheaper but since I never played the games, I have no idea which one to buy first. Could somebody who has played the games give me some insight on which is the best game to start with? Thanks :)

  • Buy the first trilogy first, and just play them by order. It's a series with a lot of recurring characters and jokes that make the game worth playing chronologically.

    . @dojo32161, someone is shining the Ace Attorney symbol!

    (...err, dojo’s a big Ace Attorney fan who loves to introduce others to it, so I tagged him in the hope he can respond to your question!)

  • Oh boy, it's a job for me. Just start with the original trilogy (the first three games are generally bundled together) and work your way from there. If you decide you enjoyed the games, then you can either go to Apollo Justice (the 4th main game) or go to the Investigations spin off games, of which there are 2, though you'll need to emulate and use an excellent fan translation for the second since Capcom never localized it.

  • Thank you both for the answers! I'm gonna buy the original trilogy tomorrow
