Tonight, on the Stevetendo show, we’re staying in the cutthroat world of crime fighting in Detective Pikachu Returns. During the last Detective Pikachu episode, we were introduced to our fearless crew of Tim Goodman and you guessed it, Detective Pikachu. We also met inspector Frank Holiday who needs our help solving the first case of the game; finding the missing jewel at the Denis estate.

We made progress last week so we should be able to solve this case soon. Who knew my criminal justice degree from college would be put to good use helping Pikachu? Thus far the game does a nice job introducing gameplay mechanics like being able to find evidence and deduce from said evidence. When you first learn how to deduce, it feels overly complicated but after seeing it in action, it was much easier. Set to go live at 6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. ET, see if solve our first case in Detective Pikachu Returns!

Shackers who want to join in on the fun can head over to the Shacknews Twitch channel, where you can tune into the Stevetendo show every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

If you can't make tonight's show, you can watch Tuesday and Wednesday nights at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET. Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door will be back on the show in its regular Wednesday night. We'll also have something new for Tuesday night but that is planned for a one off. Super Mario Brothers Wonder releases this week and will be played on the show!

You better be checking out all the great guides and videos Shacknews has to offer you. It would have been nice to have access to the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom guides when I was playing through the game. It always feels like there’s something new to discover in the land of Hyrule. Also swing by the Shacknews Twitch channel to watch some of your favorite livestream shows. Subscribe with Prime Gaming to show how much you care about Shacknews.

Keep coming up with new games that you’d like to see on the Stevetendo show. Just make sure they’re on the Nintendo Switch Online since that makes it easier to livestream for the show. Super Mario Wonder and the new Super Mario RPG are already planned to be on the show!

I’d like to say thank you to everyone who sent me their condolences regarding my grandfather’s passing last week; it was appreciated very much!
