Yo-Kai Watch to Release Friday in North America

Yo-Kai Watch has already taken over Japan with multiple games, merchandise, and a TV Show. In fact, the creators have publicly stated that they feel they are more popular than Pokemon in the country. On Friday, we will see if that success translates in North America as well.

Yo-Kai watch is only like Pokemon in that there are monsters to collect and a world to explore. However, the differences far outweigh the similarities. For those who are looking for something new, Yo-Kai Watch on 3DS might be the game for you. We have been playing it for a few weeks now, and will have our review up on Thursday, a day ahead of launch.

This game has been out in Japan for some time so you can find plenty of lets play videos on YouTube. Come back Thursday to see what we thought of the game, and whether or not it will be something you want to pick up this weekend.
