7 Best Movie Video Games EVERYONE Missed
4. Detective Pikachu
Being completely overlooked thanks to releasing three years before the best video game movie this side of 1995's Mortal Kombat, Detective Pikachu's original form also didn't have the marketing power of Ryan Reynolds, and was bolted to the divisive Nintendo 3DS.
Still, pick it up today and you'll find an awesome quirky mix of Ace Attorney combined with a hilarious script that paints this Pikachu in a way no other incarnation or representation of the species has ever shown.
As the 2019 movie was a loose adaptation, in-game Detective Pikachu still has a love of coffee and the thrill of the case, but voice actor Kaiji Tang plays the role far more like a grizzled, Bob Hoskins-infused noir detective instead.
The result still totally works. Detective Pikachu's cases are great fun to figure out, animation across the board is sublime, everything is very inventively written and all-round it's great seeing Nintendo experiment so confidently with such a staple character.
