Turns out all my 3DS needed was a brand new charger. Now we’re back in business. I already finished the 3rd case and am now well into the 4th. Maybe it’s the long break, or maybe the second half of the 3rd case was just that crappy, either way my Spirit of Justice fever has broken and now it’s becoming a bit of a slog. Actually it’s mostly because the 4th case of SoJ focuses on Athena Cykes. I like the bits with Phoenix Wright himself in charge and rather dislike the rest of the game. More Phoenix, please!
Barring any unforeseen circumstances (like yet another 3DS disaster, that handheld is seriously cursed) I should be done soon, so it’s time to look forward. Concerning Ray Gigant, I’m going to have to put it on hold. My laptop failed, which was okay because it had been failing for a long time and I already had a replacement lined up. Unfortunately while I was able to transfer most of my files, the Ray Gigant save file didn’t make it over somehow. I’m going to have to start a New Game if I want to play it, and do I want that? No, not really. I’ll do it eventually but for now it’s going to the back of the queue.
Next up: I started Ace Attorney Investigations 2 during the break to scratch my Ace Attorney itch. The outcome of the game is spoiled somewhat by the later games (i.e. Edgeworth becomes Chief Prosecutor, which means the current Chief is going to end up either evil or dead) but I’m going to see it through to the end if I can because, eh, I might as well. There’s seriously too much talking in that game though. Small doses, small doses. Also I’d like to finish Sakura Taisen 3 before the end of the year so I don’t carry any unfinished business over. Somewhere in between the two of them I’m also going to play Rune Factory 4 and the rest of my New Year resolution games. That’s it for the rest of the year, God willing!
