I'm on the 4th case so far. It's pretty clear that this is a DS native game, in contrast to the Phoenix Wright chapters in the Ace Attorney series, which were ports. Ema Skye and her "Forensic Science" mechanic from the DS bonus case in Phoenix Wright 1 feature prominently.
What I find most notable so far is a major improvement in execution of the investigation sequences - nearly every "area" gives you a conversational cue to move on once you've collected all the plot tokens.
Story-wise, it's remarkable that this game so thoroughly averts the evil prosecutor trope - so far, at least.
