Sorry Darth_Destro, but if your Wii strap splits, you must acquit!

    Judge: Let's put his guilt to a vote. If he's guilty, say "Eye"

    Miles:
    I want a Nintendo Wii for Christmas!
    Mrs. Edgeworth:
    Sorry, son, but you can't.
    Miles:
    What? Why not?
    Mrs. Edgeworth:
    Because you'll WiiMote your eye out!

    There were 6 reports today of wiimote related deaths…

  5. Vosur on April 9th, 2011 10:13 pm

    The theory still allowed him to win the case by default since the prosecutor was out of commission.

  6. Tartaurus on April 9th, 2011 10:14 pm

    The true reason Godot wears the visor. Too bad he wasnt in court that day…

    OH GOD THIS ONE.

    So old, yet so gold.

  9. Vosur on April 9th, 2011 10:27 pm

    He should've kept his eyes peeled for an opening in the case.

  10. DM1293 on April 9th, 2011 10:27 pm

    A lack of foresight, for sure. But in hindsight, Phoenix underestimates the strength of his objection hand.

  11. Lordshadow on April 9th, 2011 10:27 pm

    I, personally, am surprised that I got a positive reply out of Grammar Berzerker, on a joke that required misspelling "Aye."

    Headshot

  14. Deep Thought on April 9th, 2011 10:32 pm

    I don't think he'll have to look far to find a lawyer to represent him

  15. SHODAK on April 9th, 2011 10:33 pm

    Edgworth: The prosecution OHGOODGOD rests, your OHTHEPAIN honor.

    Phoenix: OBJECTION!
    As you can clearly see, the break on this wrist-strap is completely different from the break on the plaintiff's wrist-strap!

    Edgeworth: ARRRGHWhere are youOHGODgoing with this, Wright?ARGHWHYAREN'TYOUHELPINGME

    Phoenix: Obviously either my strap was sabotaged…
    OR THE PLAINTIFF'S WAS!

    Wiimote to the head!

  18. smashpro1 on April 9th, 2011 10:52 pm

    Well, I guess that Wii have a problem.

  19. GameboyPATH on April 9th, 2011 10:56 pm

    That's what he gets for not using the WiiMote condo- I MEAN Wiimote Jacket.

  21. Lordshadow on April 9th, 2011 11:08 pm

    The sad part, other than the cries of excruciating pain, that's exactly how a Phoenix Wright case would go.

  22. Jimmy on April 9th, 2011 11:12 pm

    Psh, give people waggle, they complain the strap breaks and ruins their tvs. Lower the waggle and every other game console copies your shit. FUCK.

  23. smartmonkey on April 9th, 2011 11:15 pm
  24. BTSnoogans on April 9th, 2011 11:27 pm

    True, but I don't envision Phoenix winning this case.

  25. MasterLuigi452 on April 9th, 2011 11:28 pm
  26. BTSnoogans on April 9th, 2011 11:30 pm

    Oh my God!

    There's a 15-player game on the Wii?

  27. BTSnoogans on April 9th, 2011 11:32 pm

    Don't blame Phoenix. It wasn't even REMOTEly his fault.

  28. FutureGentlman on April 9th, 2011 11:37 pm

    In foresight, he should of looked at the bindings then he would of foreseen this problem and could of looked for one that wasnt broken.

    Eyeballs.

  29. Redzeroine on April 9th, 2011 11:43 pm

    But we can still agree that he was Wright in this case

  30. Vabolo on April 10th, 2011 12:11 am

    Wait, the joke I made a few submissions ago was already done on the Internet? HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO MII!

  31. Vabolo on April 10th, 2011 12:19 am

    Takes 15 just to get her off these days

  33. Vabolo on April 10th, 2011 12:20 am

    Is everyone here Nintending to make bad puns?

  34. Vabolo on April 10th, 2011 12:23 am

    The word was a double-entendre, and was a scripted version of an oral joke, so we'll let that one slide. Also, I do that all the time, so I don't want that to come bite me in the ass later on.

  35. Deep Thought on April 10th, 2011 12:48 am

    You think he would have seen this coming…

    Eh, I'm pretty sure the guilty verdict is in sight

    GRAMMAR JACKHAMMER!

    would have*

    "HAVE," people, not "of!" Learn the difference!

  38. Kn0w1d3a on April 10th, 2011 1:43 am

    Honour? WTF PHOENIX WRIGHT ISN'T BRITISH!

  39. AuraMaster on April 10th, 2011 1:53 am

    Don't look at Mii like that; I didn't start this nonsense.

  40. Dimomarg on April 10th, 2011 2:42 am

    Wii Turnabout.

  41. DM - Gentrollman on April 10th, 2011 2:50 am

    In other news Zyquux, I typed "Gentrollmen" into image search.

    I think I'm doing it right. The league is on its way! But first, a jumpstart for you. Notify tmotom that he's eligible the moment his E-peen is back into positives, and if you can, help Deep Thought along.

    I'm still wondering if there's a way to make us more identifiable…Something maybe for our avatars.

  42. Nick Soapdish on April 10th, 2011 3:06 am

    That's a lesson for you kids, always use a condom!

  43. dope92 on April 10th, 2011 3:34 am

    he shoulda said take that.

    im sorry but the best jokes got taken already….

    This comic + hilarious voices

  45. Zyquux on April 10th, 2011 5:35 am

    We also dominate the Google web search as well; we are definitely doing something right.

    Affirmative, Sir! Yo, tmotom! Ya hear that?! You can join the League proper when you're positive again!

    Beyond our top hats and monocles? Maybe a little Trollface pin on our top hats?

    Also, this should be our "home page".

  46. DrSexington on April 10th, 2011 5:37 am

    Damn you and your rhyming

  47. BoxeyBrown on April 10th, 2011 5:47 am

    actually, I think the Wario Ware game can be, but it's all done with one wii remote…

  48. Vastryn on April 10th, 2011 5:48 am

    You'll have to forgive my lacking knowledge regarding the gentleman's club here on Halolz, but -- what is it? The most I can gather is that there are people with gentlemanly avatars.

  49. Zyquux on April 10th, 2011 5:53 am

    Video Game Industry:
    <img src="http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/174/trollface.png&quot; height="150" width="150">
    Problem, world?

  50. Zyquux on April 10th, 2011 6:25 am

    Here on Halolz.com, we have a tradition that people that hit 69 e-peen are awarded the privilege of placing a top hat and monocle upon their avatar. (AND HOLY CRAP, YOU HAVE 90 E-PEEN WITH 5 COMMENTS!)

    The League of Extraordinary Gentrollmen, however, is our collection of our classy trolls. In my case, I link to TV Tropes. The other members are the founder, DM1293 (or DM -- Gentrollmen as he's named up there), and Deep Thought.

  51. XPengooX64 on April 10th, 2011 11:31 am

    After that case, Edgeworth went on to sue Nintendo.
    As their defense attorney, Phoenix tried to prove Edgeworth wrong by demonstration.
    The strap broke, yet again, hitting Edgeworth in the other eye.
    This lead to another law suit, another hearing, and, eventually, a wiimote in every part of Edgeworth's body.

  52. XPengooX64 on April 10th, 2011 11:33 am

    A WiiMote condo? Like a condominium?
    WHERE CAN I BUY ONE?

  53. TheHighscore on April 10th, 2011 12:08 pm

    Surprisingly, not the first time I have heard of this happening.

  54. Deep Thought on April 10th, 2011 1:09 pm

    Just so you know, I was going to have my avatar change for the release of portal 2. (along with a slight name change)

    I'd suggest a crest or something in the corner of the avatar.

  55. KZN02 on April 10th, 2011 1:09 pm

    Given that there's the Wii version of the Ace Attorney series … I wonder with all that Wii-pointing when something like that will happen.

  56. Haite on April 10th, 2011 4:16 pm

    Old joke about a old complain is old.

  57. DM - Gentrollman on April 10th, 2011 4:56 pm

    Nobody used the 1293 that often anyway, the DM was an abbreviation. It can correlate to a username I'm fond of or of the most gentlemanly of all trolls, a Dungeon Master. They're designed to make you walk into traps, fight ungodly difficult monsters, solve simple puzzles that for some reason are really hard, and do it all without so much as cracking a smile at your plight. So yeah, I do believe Magnificent Bastard is our homepage.

    Also what Zyquux said. The formula for Epeen calculation must be something utterly CONFUSING.

  58. FrEEz on April 10th, 2011 5:34 pm

    Well played, sir

  59. Rexxmech on April 10th, 2011 10:11 pm

    Another option was offer to play a round of Wii bowling with Edgeworth then though the power of the Wii, become BFF's

  60. MagmarFire on April 11th, 2011 6:10 pm

    Maybe Phoenix should've taken up darts after AA3 instead.
