Meanwhile at nintendo:
>Yknow what doesn't sell in america?
>Detective stories! Lets make it a movie instead!
>We'll cast big name hollywood stars to act in it.
>People like pikachu right? they'll pay millions to see this movie if it has funny actors!

Fuck this company.
Fuck this gay earth.
I'm out.

Making a movie focussing on the mascot is the best and only option to make a movie out of.

What else are you gonna make a Pokémon movie to work?

>But it could retell the adventures in gen 1!!
Origins already did that.

Because we're not getting the game, we're getting a shitty movie with paid actors instead.

EVEN THOUGH

Translating the game is INFINITELY cheaper.

You do know the game would've had to get dubbed, right? That's still paid actors.

Also, why does this mean were not getting the games? It just means we're getting a movie, it doesn't confirm no game.

Japan never sells detective/noire to america and its a god damn crime.

Remember all those Conan games we got?
How about Lupin?
Kuroba?
Mattei?
Masa?

The great ace attorney with sherlock holmes?

If it has anything to do with detectives, we don't get it.

There's enough movie already based on that image. Pikachu puts on a funny hat, gets out on a crosswalk and screams at you for two hours. I'd watch the shit out of that.

They could do a slight retelling of Gen 1 and still use Det. Pikachu as the main character.

>Start with a human detective investigating Team Rocket.
>The Rocket grunts ambush him and use tech stolen from Bill to turn the detective into a Pikachu.
>Det. Pikachu gets captured by a trainer planning to beat the Pokemon League.
>Det. Pikachu realizes if they beat enough gyms they can reach the 8th Gym Leader, who he suspects is the leader of Team Rocket.

It works.

There was a Conan game for the Wii that was translated and prepared for the US and then never fucking released.

The UK got it eventually though.
