Slightly disappointing, as I read it was due to come out in October, but it's very nice to see that Capcom took note of the popularity of the original Phoenix Wright.

Yes, I agree it is great they listened. It has been one of the best news for me these days ^^

Some new information about Gyakuten Saiban 4.
Gyakuten Saiban takes place seven years after Gyakuten Saiban 4
The new Defense Attorny will be called Odoroki Hôsuke, and was briefly seen at the end of an E3 for trailer for Justice For All. (Hinting at a possible Western release?)
The new sidekick is a 14-15 year old female magician called Minuki.
The Judge is still in Gyakuten Saiban 4, as is Payne (with a new hairstyle.
)

Gyakuten Saiban 4 has been pushed back to a Spring 2007 date in Japan. Phoenix is the first defendant, and is now a "professional" Poker player/pianist after giving up law seven years ago.
The main prosecutor is the leader of a popular Band, and is also the younger brother of Odoroki's mentor.
There's no sign of Psycho-locks (these appear in Gyakuten Saiban 2 and 3), instead Odoroki has a bracelet which he can use to "zoom in" on witnesses, to look for subtle body language that suggests that witness is lying. Unlike Psycho-locks, it appears that Odoroki's bracelet (called the "Minuku" system) can only be used during trials.
Gyakuten Saiban 2 DS was released in Japan in October with a full English translation, but due to a few spelling errors will be going through another check before the January release in North America. Capcom are offering a stylus for people who preorder. Also, a port and translation of Gyakuten Saiban 3 is currently under discussion, although the U.S. sales of Phoenix Wright 2: Justice for All will be a major factor in the decision.
It is looking likely that Gyakuten Saiban 4 will be translated though.

It's a lawyer game. You have to get your innocent clients a "Not Guilty" verdict.
There's some more information about here: http://www.court-records.net/faq.htm
The English versions are DS only, but there is a fan translation of the third game on the Gameboy Advance, if you're interested in seeing what the games are like.

I'm not entirely sure I understand what you mean to be honest.
At the moment there are three Gyakuten Saiban games. Originally, they were never intended to be translated, because it was thought that they would be unpopular (Gyakuten Saiban 3 was released at the beginning of 2004.) In 2005, they made a remake of the original Gyakuten Saiban, which included a new case which took advantage of the extra features the DS had.
Phoenix Wright did so well in the West, Capcom decided to port Gyakuten Saiban 2 to the DS with a full translation, but this time without any extra content. (I've heard that it isn't selling too well in Japan because there aren't any extra cases.)
Gyakuten Saiban 3 is still only on the GBA and in Japanese. Each game has a new story and main prosecutor, although the gameplay is pretty much the same. It's was the only original Gyakuten Saiban game to have five cases so it's unlikely that a DS version will have an extra case.
