Question about NDS Apollo Justice

[chipmunk884]

I recently tried the demo from nintendo channel for this game, and i love it!  however, i wanted to know how long these games actually last, because there are only like 6 cases in the game.  The demo lasted about 30 minutes for me.  Could anyone post how long it took them to complete all the cases?  I want to know how long I would get to play this game for, because if it isn't that long, i might not get it.

there are 5 cases in Apollo Justice. the starting case is usually the shortest since you don't do any investigative stuff.

I'd say the average ace attorney case is about 3-6 hours with the last one being about 9+hours.

[chipmunk884]

so this means 20+ hours right?  Cause 20 hours will usually last me long enough to want to get it.  I usually don't get really short games (10 hours or less).

basically, unless you are like super smart and can figure everything out quickly.

Shadowninja, i finally got the game last night, and i love it!  I was only able to beat the prologue case, and i thought it was very long.  It took my like 3 hours to complete.

Highlight below text to read spoiler comments:
I was very surprised that Mr. Gavin was the murderer.  I really though for most of the case that it was olga, so i was very surprised at the last testimony.

The play time of the cases gets exponentially longer as you go. The last case took me ages to do...5 hours? I don't really remember.

So far, there has been a little comedy in the second case during investigation, because i just recovered trucy's panties.  And then, i found out that they are magic panties... lol  now i need to work on finding mr eldoon's stand back.  btw, did you know that eldoon spelled backwards is noodle, just like his business.

The whole series is very punny.
