Breaking News: Yo-Kai Watch Isn't Pokemon, So Let's Stop Comparing Them

Frank Inglese of SnapThirty writes:

As many of you long-time readers would know; us here at SnapThirty set our sights on Level-5 and Nintendo’s “next big thing” Yo-Kai Watch for as far back as we can remember. Ever since it first hit the big time over in Japan, we’ve kept a close eye on it, making sure to keep tabs on the “goings on” of this, at the time, exciting new franchise. It’s now been something along the lines of a year and a half, since the beginning of the website, and only now after all this time has the first of a series of many Yo-Kai Watch video games hit the West.

Why not bring most of their games on PS4 too?

BrandanT2791d ago

Competition drives the business more than whomever may be the current top seller.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory2791d ago

Because one thing is. Audience.

kowan2790d ago

They're already making a big Ps4 JRPG though. Also most of Level 5's games are exclusive to Nintendo devices so it's only natural they continue with the Switch.

wonderfulmonkeyman2790d ago (Edited 2790d ago )

Because Sony already has more than enough third parties.
Switch is in much greater need of good exclusives from third parties than ps4 is.

Yokai Watch for Switch hopefully

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory2791d ago

It's possible. If they do bring to the Switch it will be Yo-Kai Watch 4 of course.

ThatGuyDart2790d ago

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

Omnislashver362790d ago

I'd argue Lost Odyssey, but I haven't played Ni No Kuni yet. I'd definitely try it on Switch though!

Segata2790d ago

Also Dragon's Crown
Muramasa
Earth Seeker
The Last Story
Valkyrie Chronicles
Kingdoms of Amalur
Dragon Age Origins
Nier
Fragile Dreams

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory2790d ago (Edited 2781d ago )

one the best.
Ni No Kuni have to battle
Xenoblade Chronicles
Blue Dragon
Tales of Verpseria
Lost Odyssey
for that spot.

Having to played all five and beaten all but Lost Odyssey(I still can if wanted to) Xenoblade Chronicles is the best.

Rangerman12082781d ago (Edited 2781d ago )

I'm guessing you only have an Xbox 360 and a Wii because you missed some other great JRPGS on the Playstation like Persona, Tales of Symphonia HD, Trails of Cold Steel, Disgaea, Valkyria Chronicles, Demon's Souls, etc. Hell, even Yakuza because of its RPG elements.

Segata2790d ago

Ni No Kuni battle system needed work. It's the wrong kind of battle system for a grind heavy game. I have the Wizards Edition btw so not blindly hating it. Battle system been fine if the game had occasional battles and not a grind heavy game. I like grinding I do it in DQ games. Ni no Kuni was off balance in that regard so never finished it.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory2790d ago

That was my one of my only complaints about Ni No Kuni as well as the annoying Drippy.

wonderfulmonkeyman2790d ago

I'd argue that Bravely Default is a good contender for best jrpg.
