it's weird how Takumi knew how to be succinct during his original run through the series but he became just as long-winded as the main series with Layton/AA and the GAA games

My theory is that this has less to do with the writers and more to do with hardware limitations

The original trilogy were crammed onto GBA carts and they basically made the most of what they could do

Longer dev times for the newer games and an industry where the expectation is now that every full-priced non-indie retail game is supposed to last dozens of hours minimum probably didn't help with this either

Probaby one of the most obvious cases of "limitation breeds creativity" I can think of in the industry. Along with stuff the final 3D OoT-style Zelda being Skyward Sword, a bloated as hell game that probably had the developers cram every idea they had into it, whether or not those ideas were good or bad.
