WARNING!
THIS THREAD INCLUDES SPOILERS!



I figured that this game, like the previous 3, will have tons of cultural refences and internet memes.

The only one I found so far was the witness in the first case called Olga Orly (ORLY?).

Post some as you find them!

I was hoping they would include some Portal quotes...
OBJECTION!

I doubt there's any portal quotes, since it's just a translation of Gyakuten Saiban 4, which was released on March 12th, 2007 as opposed to Portal, which was released on October 9th, 2007.

Just getting in the mood

In case 3, Apollo says something like nobody would ever name a band "the police" and later he says to Trucy you don't have to turn on the red light or something.

Maybe it's just me being wacky.

well actually thats just french...
et = and
tu = you


well actually it's a coincidence that is looks like french. thats no wonder since french is a romanic language.
wikipedia
"Et tu, Brute?" ("You too, Brutus"[1], or "And you, Brutus?") is a Latin phrase often used poetically to represent the last words of Julius Caesar. The quotation is widely used in Western culture as an epitome of betrayal.

in case 3, a couple of the characters are from a fictional country called "Borginia" which is also a country in Dino Crisis, an older capcom game.

also i heard that the "Borginianese" language in the game, which is made of wingdings, contains a symbol of a man doing the hadouken

at the end of the third case the judge says: "with great accusations comes great responsibility".

thats an adaption of "with great power comes great responsibility" which comes from "spiderman".

I don't think you are.

Honestly, the joke doesn't work, because, later, Apollo asks, "The Police?" Trucy (I think) replies with something along the lines of "no, the actual police!"
