I think part of the fun of Phoenix Wright would really be lost in an animated medium. What makes Phoenix Wright so much fun is it's so over the top, and you're playing it, figuring out what's really happened. It's the fact that the entire experience is interactive, right down to you screaming "OBJECTION!" into your DS that makes PW a downright brilliant game. Being a passive observer of a Phoenix Wright storyline? Not so much my thing, I guess. :/ If you're just watching, then PW is just reduced to a comic load of cheese, in my opinion.
