A famous Japanese lawyer will promote Pheonix Wright games now and in the futue in Japanese ads. 

Capcom has found a representative for its Phoenix Wright ad campaign in Japanese celebrity lawyer Kazuya Maruyama.

Unknown to most Americans, Kazuya Maruyama has carved his niche as a regular guest on Japanese talk shows, including one where he offers council to enquiring citizens on interpreting the Japanese legal code.

According to Famitsu magazine, Maruyama will be appearing in an ad for the Best Price! edition of the game in Japan. It has also been reported that he is under contract to do ads for future Phoenix Wright games, though it is doubtful that Americans will be seeing any of these, due to Maruyama being a virtual unknown in this part of the world.
