When it was revealed that Capcom had another trademark under its belt, we all knew it was the name of Gyakuten Saiban 4's new lawyer. Now, we actually have confirmation of such. Machine translation isn't the best, so it's kind of hard to extract any more information from the piece.Of course, look for more on the game from this week's E3.
[Thanks, Zachary!]

Apollo as a name, is awesome, but I'm not feeling this "Justice"...
Either way, I'm buying!

You're welcome!
Anyway, I'm iffy on the new name. I don't really like it, but I think I'll be able to get used to it.

i can see his partner calling him Olly, or something along those lines(ap[Oll]o). Or Just. but either way I'm buying it. I wonder if they'll change anything?

Maybe his nickname (if the japanese ver of Gyakuten Saiban 4 has given him a nick)will be "Apple" since it sounds like Apollo. It is a bit cheesey, but it still fits in the realm of Phoenix Wright with the double meaning names and all

Theres gonna be a bunch of corny jokes like "Hey Apollo, finally going to take JUSTICE into your own hands?" *cue laugh*
Ok, that was stupid but still.
Anyways, I like the name, I'm already use to it. I can't see the guy without that name now.

Just to add a few things regarding to the source article, it says:
"and the soon-to-be-cult hit Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney on Nintendo DS, the last game of the Phoenix Wright saga which just had a great success in Japan" (sorry for English errors, I'm French).
So, it is a Ace Attorney game, and Apollo Justice sure sounds like the name of Odoroki (reminds me of Apollo Creed).

Rest in peace Phoenix Wright...he is dead right? Cause, you know, otherwise, WTF's the point? He's not dead? Then WTF's the point?

Phoenix is not dead, but he lost his badge. He is actually in the game. Haven't seen Maya yet, although I'm still on case #2.
Anyway, Odoroki or Apollo is not that different from PW, since you mostly play as from 1st person view. Minuki, his sidekick is not that much different from Maya, but isn't as flirtatious or as funny, but is crazier.
I haven't played it through yet, but so far it's been pretty good. The first case is actually really good, not just a tutorial like the in the previous games. Second case, though... OK, I'll need to finish it first to judge it properly.
The first thing you'll notice though is the better graphics and content in general, that means better animated characters, more detailed and colorful backgrounds, more music, better looking (3D) evidence and so on.
Now, back to the game...

Plot note- Phoenix lost his badge because of Odoroki's mentor, who also happens to be the guilty party of cases 1 and 4.

So you complain about there being spoilers in a post that you had to actively search out? I waited until this page was out of the spotlight, at the very least- when you posted it was probably around the 10th page of posts or so. I won't apologize for doing that, though- I may be an asshole sometimes, but I'm not a liar.
Back to the subject at hand-
Odoroki->Apollo Justice
Minuki->Vérité (probably Verity in English)
Kirihito->Kristoph Gavin
are the names for the main characters (confirmed from a trailer shown at Anime Expo '07).
