1''[[http://www.gameplayer.com/game/mario-mario-ace-attorney Mario Mario Ace Attorney]]'', [[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/408217 formerly hosted on]] Website/{{Newgrounds}}, is a Flash-based ''VisualNovel/AceAttorney'' fan-game, using ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' characters. It contains many tropes endemic to the ''Ace Attorney'' series, but also averts many of them (though it seems likely that this is simply because the game is so short).

4!!This game provides examples of:
5
6* AccuseTheWitness: Twice in the same case.
7* AlwaysMurder: The only case you play through is a murder case.
8* AmateurSleuth: You check Peach's room for evidence during a recess.
9* BigNo: When a witness breaks down after being presented with irrefutable evidence that he/she is the killer.
10* BigWordShout: "Objection!"
11* BreakingTheFourthWall: Towards the end, where one of the murderer's reasons for committing the crime is because they don't get to appear in as many games as the victim.
12* ButThouMust: Manifests in the usual ways. When presenting evidence, the game does not recognise a logical equivalence between presenting an autopsy report only stating: "The victim died from poisoning" and presenting the poison itself.
13* ConvictionByContradiction: The only way to progress is to expose lies in a witness's testimony.
14* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Arguably the name of the game itself.
15* FriendlyEnemy: Opposing council is your brother.
16* GivingSomeoneThePointerFinger: Averted; the sprites don't move their arms.
17* GuideDangIt: As mentioned above, sometimes only one of two logically equivalent pieces of evidence will allow the player to progress. Or the piece of evidence the game requires you to present doesn't actually make any kind of sense.
18* INeverSaidItWasPoison: Averted, though presumably because the dev team didn't think of it.
19* IntercontinuityCrossover: The game.
20* KangarooCourt: Averted.
21* KleptomaniacHero: You take a piece of evidence from Peach's room during a recess.
22* LifeMeter
23* MoonLogicPuzzle: As stated above.
24* MotiveRant: When the witness confesses to being the real killer.
25* ThePerryMasonMethod
