Famitsu recently had the opportunity to sit down with Level 5 president and CEO Akihiro Hino. The publication quizzed Hino about whether the immensely popular Yokai Watch will make its way over to the west. The anime is apparently destined for western shores, but we’ve hardly heard anything about the game. Hino told the magazine that international expansion “in consideration in a big way.” Hopefully that means we should get some news about a future western release. You can read how Yokai Watch was engineered to be a massive hit, right here. We also posted the first forty-two minutes of Yokai Watch 2 which you can view, here.
Oh god, YES. YES. YES! TAKE ALL OF MY MONEY. I would lick a Dumpster if it meant Yokai coming to the west!

Yeah, we got enough generic light-weight collectathon RPGs over here Japan, no need for this generosity.

Generic games rarely sell millions in Japan, well most of the time.

If you’re talking about most of Xbox’s crap and trash like COD, then you’re correct.

RPG games in Japan are just as generic as FPS games are in the west…
