I loved Phoenix Wright, another cool thing is that neither Edgeworth or Gumshoe were a part of his gameplay, making it possible that Edgie could be playable in a later update. Nova looks....he's badass...but a lot of his moves seem taken from other characters. Where's my Mega Man X and Gambit? Or at least Sigma, if Capcom really doesn't want Rock in this.
Gambit's not really got a chance, and Capcom just loves to troll those Megaman fans like so.
And yes, I agree that Nova looks rather uninspired.
