Way back in the late ’80s Nintendo released two games in the Famicom Tantei Club for the Famicom in Japan. Being visual novels focused on murder, the company’s western branch naturally didn’t pick them up for publication.
Yet, here we are, over thirty years later with the confirmation that both Famicom Detective Club: The Missing Heir and Famicom Detective Club: The Girl Who Stands Behind are getting an English localization at long-last thanks to the games’ modern remakes. Better yet? We don’t have long to wait.
Both games will hit the Switch eShop on May 14th, and if you purchase one you can get $10 off the other.

Whether it’s an exciting new entry in a series long established or a weird experiment meant only for the dedicated, Tom is eager to report on it. Rest assured, if Nintendo ever announces Elite Beat Agents 2, he’ll be there.
