Detective Pikachu: Birth of a New Team
5 3DS Games to Look Forward to in 2018
If you haven’t seen the trailer for Detective Pikachu, get on that. Detective Pikachu incorporates the bizarre concept of a talking Pikachu who goes around solving crimes – and he has the gruff voice of a middle-aged man!
Once you get over the craziness of this game, it still looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun. You don’t actually play as Pikachu, but his new friend Tim Goodman. You have to walk around town, and interact with people and Pokemon alike to uncover new clues and solve puzzles. It’s an adventure game like Sam & Max, but with Pokemon!
Detective Pikachu had already released in Japan on the 3DS eShop back in early 2016, but the game is now finally coming to the West in March, and has a new episode bundled in. Detective Pikachu is even getting his own jumbo-sized amiibo.
