Emio Smiling Man Famicom Detective Club approval

According to Emio – The Smiling Man: Famicom Detective Club producer Yoshio Sakamoto, getting the project approved wasn’t too big of an issue.

Famicom Detective Club had been a dormant franchise for Nintendo until the Switch remakes of the original titles back in 2021. Then last August, Emio – The Smiling Man launched on the console. That was the first new Famicom Detective Club story in 35 years.

Developer Armonica LLC have announced that they will be bringing Detective Instinct: Farewell, My Beloved to Nintendo Switch. The game is an ADV/Visual novel inspired by classic titles such as the Famicom Detective Club series, and has a targeted release date of 2025.

In a recent interview, Nintendo producer Akira Otani spoke more about the origins of Mario & Luigi: Brothership.

Otani, who has been working the series since Partners in Time on Nintendo DS, said that it’s been a challenge to match the franchise’s artwork with the in-game graphics.
