Turns out the show's writers are on board, as are the Phoenix Wright game's designers. Makes me wonder though... Since Capcom is a Japanese company and everything, do they really even "get" Harvey Birdman? I mean I wonder if that style of humor is too culture and/or language specific? There's a lot of word play on that show that I'm just not sure properly translates... Of course, the other option is Capcom is just sorta "doing this thing" and doesn't really care if they "get it" or not.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
