Otome games with Resting Peach Face, Buddy Mission BOND, Nintendo Direct June 2022 Predictions

Otome game fan and YouTuber Resting Peach Face joins the podcast this week to talk about, what else, otome games! More than just dating sims for women, the genre carved out a unique niche in the Japanese game market and is rapidly growing overseas. We talk about the history of the genre, what makes a great otome game, the upcoming even if TEMPEST, and whether or not you should fall in love with someone who shoves you in a dog cage. I also dig deep into Buddy Mission BOND, the only Nintendo published Switch game that has yet to leave Japan! And game announcements are ramping up, so I throw out my predictions for a June 2022 Nintendo Direct. Plus Pokemon, Pokemon, Pokemon! Be sure to follow my guest on social media!
