When you type in ‘Phoenix Wright’, it gives the same response as when you include “rude” words, so it’s probably because of the three letter word included in ‘Phoenix’ right after the ‘P’. It’s a “clbuttic” type of situation, not a conscious decision to block a character name from another company.
That game is pretty cool. Ah, yes, a lot of things were wilder back in the day. One of the reasons I like indie games is that they still have that sense of chaotic playfulness that big corporate types shy away from.
I also remember how we extensively abused every name input in every game. Have you ever heard the castle wizard in Dragon Quest say “The coming of my **** was foretold by legend. May the light shine upon thee, my ****!”?
Sonic in Yakuza game? Yes please! Wheter he:
– can be beaten up by Majima or Kiryu
– could sing “Baka Mitai” or “24 hour Cindirela”
it would be awesome to have him in the RGG series

Numerous games won’t allow my sister to use her own name, which is “Anusha”. Reason being because of the first 4 letters… 😑
Ha!
No, the first 4… not the last 2.
How about in Pokemon black/white you couldn’t trade Coffagrigus without nicknaming it because of three letters in the middle

“God” has always been my favorite, always leads to amusing dialogue, especially with silent protagonists.
Ocarina of Time first encounter with Zelda: “What’s you’re name? God? That sounds oddly familiar.”
Digimon World 2: “You must be God! We’ve been awaiting your arrival!”
Pokemon (I think gen 4): “Oh God, you’re up, that friend Dipshit of yours was here to see you.”
Final Fantasy 9, I named Steiner ‘Big ***’. Which led to the classic cutscene ‘Queen Brahne’s Big ***’.
I had a friend in high school playing FF8 who named Rinoa’s dog Angelo “Onenut”. Resulted in the attacks “Onenut Rush” and “Onenut Cannon”.
he would do that?!
He’s Harvey. What do -you- think? 🙂
It’s great to see some love for Segata Sanshiro! He’s one of the best mascots ever made.
Y’know… It took me ’til just now (Tuesday evening) to really understand the joke in the last two panels’ dialog. 🙂 🙂
