Detective Pikachu Coming to 3DS

Yeah, that other Pikachu ammibo is there for size comparison. IT'S HUGE.

Also, interesting to point out: Kaiji Tang is doing the VA work for Detective Pikachu in the game, while Ryan Reynolds is confirmed to do the voice in the movie. Tang did Owain/Odin in Fire Emblem Awakening/Fates, Yelv in Xenoblade Chronicles X, and a ton of other games. I'm really excited for this because I absolutely love Owain/Odin and he kinda brings that character's dramatic flair to Detective Pikachu, according to the trailer.

That is interesting. O: I wonder why they didn't just hire Kaiji for the movie. It seems weird to get someone else to play Pikachu instead of the game's VA. I bet that's just Hollywood though. "Let's get someone everyone will recognise and it'll make more sales" or something.

Unless people have played games that Kaiji's done VA work for, it kinda makes sense to do it like this. The movie world will recognize Ryan more than they'll recognize Kaiji and vice versa. The video game world will recognize Kaiji easier than they would Ryan who, iirc, has only done VA work for one game.

Well idk, I suppose that's true because screen actors mainly do movies while voice actors do games, but I kind of wish it was a thing that voice actors got to do more movie roles. :c But maybe he didn't want to do the movie so I shouldn't judge haha.

Maybe he didn't want to do both the game and the movie so close to one another? Or perhaps scheduling prevented him from doing the movie?

Perhaps! I hope it was his choice. xD Anyway, I am looking forward to this game, although I'm kind of sceptical about how good it'll be.
