The series retooled itself pretty effectively
Strong disagree there. AJ came close to killing the series, and I don't think that's a hot take. There's a reason that after AJ, we immediately got:

Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth
Ace Attorney Investigations 2
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy
Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright

For 6 years of spinoffs and rereleases that desperately harkened back to the old characters and old Phoenix design. Then, after sufficient time had passed, Dual Destinies came out. It immediately put Phoenix back in the saddle and tried to pretend his hobo era never existed. There was never a payoff, just scrambling to right the ship after a disastrous misstep.

EDIT: Also difficult to say there was a payoff when Apollo himself gets a new backstory every game!
