Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney.

Some Capcom exec saw that and thought “Wow, so people really don’t like it when we change up the protagonist! Let’s give up on forehead boy, and go back to the classic Phoenix Wright!” When, ironically, the biggest issue with that game was that Phoenix himself was frequently upstaging Apollo through xanatos gambits.

Ace Attorney is a great formula, but it sort of needed to divorce itself from the name “Phoenix Wright” since it’s very character-based, and you can only tell so many stories with a single person. It managed to do that with the Edgeworth and Naruhodo games eventually.
