Famicom Detective Club - yes it is that Japanese schoolgirl trophy from Smash

These look really interesting, but $60 feels steep for what amounts to two detective visual novel games. I'm not knowledgeable on the genre I admit, but it's a little much. Hell just one of them is $35.

As much as I genuinely liked them, I had to agree. I bought Missing Heir (since that's the first one released) and ended up homebrewing my switch so I could pirate the 2nd one.

I hope that we’ll get a remake of Famicom Detective Club: Memories in the Snow at some point. I was really impressed with GWSB and Missing Heir, so if it ends up confirmed then I’m confident it will be just as great.

some screencaps of this lost game (or so it seems):

Is there a chance that the Satellaview game would come out in America? I liked the first game (though I felt it was a bit overpriced for such a short game, which is why I homebrewed my switch and pirated the 2nd) and the 2nd game is pretty good so far.

RetroPals, one of the least popular channels on youtube, did two streams of SatellaView games and the bonkers history behind them. As a turbo-sperg I enjoyed them. I know, the voice...

How's the rule 34 looking for this series? There are some serious waifus wandering around.

The nurse from Missing Heir is my favorite so far. She relentlessly dunks on the protagonist.

It pales in comparison to persona.

As far as Nintendo only properties, Animal Crossing and Pokemon have far more stuff than this with Zelda being a distant third.

That nurse was full of sass. So was the lady who works for Kanda- I liked how she responded to when the protagonist showed her “kindness”.

Overall decent game. Presentation is amazing, story is good if a little predictable, gameplay is kind of ass.

Finished The Missing Heir. Was fun! Looking forward to starting the next one. The secondary twist in Missing Heir was pretty obvious.

It was obvious almost immediately that the dude who rescued you from the cliff was the bad guy. My very first question was: why am I in this guy's apartment? Followed by: why isn't he taking me to a hospital? Why isn't anyone taking me to a hospital?? Even my milk truck girlfriend didn't think to call a doctor and get me looked at.

I intend to get into these at some point, I've always been interested since SSBM.

I'm glad visual novels these days actually have the characters speaking on screen. I always hated the static images in previous VN's particularly stuff like Kanon, Air, etc.
