Ise-Shima Mystery Guide: The False Black Pearl has just been announced for 3DS via the latest issue of Famitsu. The mystery adventure-style game is a pretty clear reference to the classic NES game Famicom Detective Club – in fact, developer Happymeal is making Ise-Shima Mystery Guide: The False Black Pearl within the specifications of an NES game, at least in terms of its visuals and its sound design.

The game will be released exclusively on the 3DS eShop. A release date has not yet been announced.
