Nintendo Life: There's no point beating around the bush: Yo-Kai Watch is a lot like Pokémon. But instead of straight up emulating one of Nintendo's biggest franchises, developer Level-5 has aspired to create something a bit stranger and fresher than Pokémon has done in years. The result is a welcoming RPG that has some highs and some lows, but ultimately succeeds thanks to a compelling world filled with endearing, humorous characters and an unwavering insistence to do things its own way. There's certainly room for improvement, but Yo-Kai Watch is proof that this is a franchise to watch (pun intended).
Level-5 will host a “Yo-kai Watch 5th Anniversary Title Presentation” on June 27, where it will announce its previously teased new entry in the series. The presentation will be live streamed on YouTube.
Hardcore Gamer: For those who wore a Wazzat on their heads and forgot to see Yo-Kai Watch: The Movie in theaters, fear not! Fans of the television series and video games who missed out on the limited run Fathom event in select cinemas will have the chance to catch it on television.

All I want is Ni No Kuni 2 with the original packed in as a pre-order bonus. Ni No Kuni was the best JRPG last generation
