Soapbox: Game Genres Are Broken

I love AAA F2P VR PvE FPS MMORPGs.

If your mum asked you if you wanted to watch a romantic period drama with her for Mother's Day, you'd know what to expect.

If your dad requested a movie night with a bunch of '80s action movies, again, you'd already know quite a few of the tropes. Bruce Willis, Tom Cruise, and Sylvester Stallone try to break into an underground wrestling crime ring run by the German Mafia to rescue their daughter, wife, and best friend from a plane crash before the President finds out. And then, at the end, they all turn out to be androids!

The alliance grows stronger every day.

Did You Find The Easter Egg Hidden In Famicom Detective Club?

Posted: 15 May 2021 05:30 AM PDT

SPOILERS FOR BOTH GAMES WITHIN!

We hope you've been enjoying Famicom Detective Club as much as we did, and if you've finished both games — or if you're at least halfway through both of them — then there's a neat little Easter Egg that you might have already found yourself.

In The Missing Heir, you're given a speed dial number to reach the office of Kanda Law Firm by the butler, Zenzou. Dialing "*16" will get you through to the assistant, who will usually tell you that Kanda, the lawyer, is out.

Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (May 15th)

Posted: 15 May 2021 02:00 AM PDT

We could link to various financial results and Q & As, but we know Calculator is more interesting.

It's time to unwind a little and discuss our weekend gaming plans. Members of the Nintendo Life team have done just that below, so feel free to give our entries a read and then join in with your own via our comment section. Enjoy!
