Yokai Watch has shipped over one million copies in Japan following an announcement from Level-5. According to figures released just over two months ago, the anime RPG had reached 500k on the Nintendo 3DS but in a short space of time has rocketed to a milestone mark. It’s believed sales have been boosted due to the popularity of the animated TV series, which began airing in January.
A sequel to the popular fantasy RPG will launch for Japan on July 10, and will come in two versions for avid fans of the series. Though western audiences are yet to get their hands on Yokai Watch, Level-5 have not ruled out the possibility and are considering bringing the game over.

That’s actually pretty good! More JRPGs for the 3DS = install base improvements
Can somebody tell me what the difference is between RPG abd JRPG? I’ve wanted to know for a long time.
nothing.
there is only a difference in WRPG and JRPG
JRPG looks like anime and is from Japan. Look at the games Square Enix makes.
I hope it comes to US..
shipment not sold
Wait, this is an JRPG?
Yep, you got it. JRPG are any RPGs made in Japan. If you see an RPG that is turn based, has anime style characters, or has a long Japanese sounding title- there’s a good chance that it’s a jrpg.
Heh, I hope to see it here in the west then.
