    Works great with the first Nintendo 3DS. Note, if you want to use the Pikachu amiibo, you will need the New Nintendo 3DS.

    My 6 year old daughter wanted this game badly. Once she started playing it she realized it was a little difficult for her. Now her older plays it and loves it.

    My son really likes this new game. He has almost all the Pokemon games for the DS/2DS/3DS systems. This isn't his favorite, but still fun to play.

    Great adventure/mystery game. Having it set in the Pokemon universe is very interesting and gives a new look into the Pokemon universe.

    This is a fun story driven game that is very different compared to the standard Pokémon RPG games. Puzzles are easy to solve.

    So much fun! I thought I’d give this a try, even though I’ve never played anything Pokémon related. I love the storyline and hunt for clues.

    Keeps you busy when bored. It's cute if you like Pokemon. Pikachu's voice takes some getting used to. But still a good game if you like to solve things

    Definitely a game you have to think and solve the cases. It does get more difficult. Also a lot of Pokémons in the game.

    It takes the tedious searching of LA Noire and makes it accessible for Pokemon fans. While it isn't a perfect game, it's a fun one for Pokemon fans.

    Game lets you see other parts of the Pokémon world. Detective Pikachu’s gruff, middle aged personality makes the short experience hilarious.

    My son likes it but he does need most of the game read to him. He would get more enjoyment out of it if the game had full voice overs.
