* DisappointingLastLevel: The revisualization segment of "Turnabout Time Traveler" is widely considered the most underwhelming to date, and to many players feels more like it's only there out of obligation, having only three questions with the first two being painfully obvious. The first question effectively amounts to [[CaptainObvious "the murderer used the murder weapon"]], a fact people have mercilessly mocked this revisualization for ever since. Part of the problem is the revisualization's placement in the narrative, as instead of taking place when the defense is in a dire spot and the culprit is about to get away with everything, it happens when the culprit is already pretty much cornered and the defense is simply readying to deliver the final blow, so the whole thing can also come across as an AntiClimax.

The entire level can disappoint people who'd prefer to end the Apollo Justice Trilogy with a case demonstrating how Phoenix has matured since his original appearances.

* PlayerPunch: [[spoiler:Dhurke]]'s death. [[spoiler:He suddenly shows up in case 5 after being teased multiple times and appearing very briefly at the end of the third case, and it turns out he's a [[AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents hilarious]] [[GoodParents father]] who wants nothing more than to reconnect with his foster son and figure out a way to have the revolution succeed. He manages to reconnect with Apollo after saving his life- but upon their return to Kuh'rain he manages to get framed for murder. He's made extremely lovable and sympathetic over one day in-game and then, as you slowly find out, he was DeadAllAlong.]]

** Case 1 operates under the constant threat of one and uses it to establish the stakes you are up against: if you lose this trial not only is a nine-year old ''child'' going to be ''sentenced to death'' for a murder they aren't guilty of but the DC Act ensures Phoenix Wright himself is going to join him. Never in the series has the potential outcome of a trial felt as direly winner-take-all as this one with as much pressure to not screw up and you're just starting the game.

Spelling/grammar fix(es); funny side note, I bet the user who typed "DDC" instead of "DC" is a Touhou fan, lol


** [[spoiler:[[AntiVillain Tahrust Inmee]] is a member of the Defiant Dragons and a high priest in Khura'in. After finding out his wife murdered Rheel Nehmu out of self-defense he staged a plan to defend her by committing suicide, pinning the blaming on Maya and the identity of Lady Kee'ra using the divination sense as an advantage thanks to the DDC Act. After Phoenix finds the entire truth about his death and the murder of Nehmu, Inmee confesses his crimes before bidding farewell to his wife in the Twilight Realm.]]

* HilariousInHindsight:
** The final case of the game is called "Turnabout Revolution". In 2012, [[http://aceattorney.sparklin.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=7959 a (now cancelled) trial with the exact same name was released on Ace Attorney Online.]]
** Case 4 takes the relationship between Athena and Simon in a new direction and that direction is "[[MemeticMutation Notice Me, Sempai!]]"
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNHI9sFWGW4 This comic]] from Webcomic/{{Hiimdaisy}} is made much more funny since [[spoiler:Dhurke sees Trucy as Apollo's bride material.]]

** The fact that the two Asinine Attorney episodes are not ported to iOS and Android, and are not present in the ''Trilogy'' rerelease. On one hand, many fans didn't like those episodes, anyway and a sub-group from that group were actually quite glad that Capcom didn't waste their energy porting those and channeled their energy into polishing the port instead. On the other hand, there are fans who quite enjoyed those chapters, or are intrigued by the chapters because they don't live in a region who have access to the eShop and want to experience everything AA, regardless of the quality.
