Anyone remember the Touch Detective games? BeeWorks made a couple of them early on in the DS’ lifecycle, and then the IP vanished.

After a five year hiatus on handhelds, the series has returned – this time on the 3DS.

Just like the previous Touch Detective games, Success Corporation is publishing (and possibly making) “Osawari Tantei Nameko Daihanjou” in Japan. The title launches in February for 3,990 yen.

Osawari Tantei Nameko Daihanjou was originally a PC browser game. Thanks to Famitsu, we know that it will feature new aspects. Local and online play are included.

This week’s Famitsu review scores are as follows:

Yakuza 5 (PS3) – 10/10/10/10
Paper Mario: Sticker Star (3DS) – 9/9/9/9


This video is very much like the Japanese and North American Nintendo Direct minis we’ve posted over the past 24 hours. European gamers will likely be interested in this one in particular, though.


New Super Mario Bros. 2 Owners Get Free Downloadable Coin Rush Course Pack Based on Classic Games

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Nintendo fans worldwide have amassed a mountain of more than 300 billion gold coins in New Super Mario Bros. 2 for the Nintendo 3DS system, and the tally continues to climb. To reward players for hitting this massive milestone, Nintendo is offering a free pack of Coin Rush courses that game owners can download wirelessly within the game at no extra charge (broadband Internet access is required).

The free Gold Classics Pack was inspired by games like Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros. 3, and includes three new courses that can be played in Coin Rush mode. Players can test their skills, then share and challenge other players’ records through the StreetPass feature. The Gold Classics Pack is now available and will be free for a limited time to New Super Mario Bros. 2 owners. Starting Feb. 1, 2013, the pack will be available to purchase for $2.50 in the United States. A variety of other downloadable Coin Rush course packs are available for purchase through the New Super Mario Bros. 2 game.


The screenshots look a bit compressed, so don’t worry about the graphical quality too much. You can see the game in motion for a few seconds here.


An unexpected Nintendo Direct mini was published by Nintendo’s Japanese division just a short while ago. The video reveals that, at least in Japan, a new “Golden Classic Course Pack” for New Super Mario Bros. 2 will be free for a limited time. The Big N is making this offer available to celebrate the news of 300 billion coins collected in the game worldwide.

Each of the DLC’s levels are based on ones found in Mario titles of old. Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata said that questionnaire feedback helped the team in determining which courses would be included.

Remade levels from Super Mario Bros. include 1-1, 1-2, and 1-4. Super Mario Bros. 3’s 1-1 and 1-5 will be represented, too. Courses feature hidden routes, and if you come across them, you’ll wind up in other classic areas.

Players can download the Golden Classic Course Pack for free between November 27 and January 1. From then on, it’ll cost 200 yen.
