Detective Pikachu's weekend box office has come in, and it's a record-breaker. The title has pulled in an estimated $170+ million worldwide, which is enough to grab it the record for the biggest opening weekend for a video game movie. With $58 million coming from the domestic side, that also means the movie holds a record for the biggest game movie opening in the U.S. specifically.

Thanks to ThatWaluigiDude for the heads up!
