"storybook" games

You mean point and click adventure games?

Waxworks is pretty good.

Paper Mario?

Phoenix Wright. The first one is retro, isn't it?

Visual Novels

It's a huge genre in Japan

The Famicom had a lot of detective games with a similar interface, there are probably fan translations for a few of them.

Original versions of the games were on the GBA, so they're still not retro.

He's probably confusing Phoenix Wright for Zack Hunter

I've been playing this one lately, just getting started but I'm enjoying it.

It has a top-down view like an RPG, but it plays like an adventure game, no actual battles so far, there's some dungeon crawling though (in fact I'm stuck in one atm).

It has an english translation patch.

The first chapter was almost identical to the TV series, but on the 2nd chapter there's already some differences. Anyway you can play it even if you never watched the series (although I do recommend the series as well)
