The Japanese staff weren't keen on the idea of adding a bunch of unnecessary features, but creator/writer Shu Takumi recognized the importance of making the American audience happy. The rest, as they say, is an optional feature in a video game.
Speaking of American Ace Attorney staff, the post mentions an interesting bit of trivia that we've been looking for an excuse to share. Ben Judd, who was part of the localization team, provided the American voice of Phoenix Wright. He's now the producer on the new Bionic Commando games.

I don't like talking to my DS. I finished the first game at a coffee shop. At the end where you have to say "objection" to get to the credits, I went into the bathroom and turned the water on before whispering it into the microphone. xD

I have to wait until I'm alone to fully appreciate and play with the 4-track plantkon in Electroplankton. It does feel weird talking to my gameboy.
