User questions & answers

Question: Would this work on a NZ nintendo
Answer: If I am reading the Nintendo region guidelines correctly, I believe the Australian/New Zealand version or the European version will be needed; otherwise, you may encounter region locking issues. There is a chance that the game will work anyway but I cannot test personally or find any statements guaranteeing the US-marketed version will run correctly. Sorry I can't find a more concrete answer for you.
Question: Do you need the watch accessory? What is it for
Answer: You dont need the watch to play, but the medallions/coins they sell have a QR code on the back which can be used in game to unlock monsters and prizes at the Yank a Crank."
Question: Does this have a multiplayer option? And if so, does it have download play (where 2 players near each other can play from 1 cartridge
Answer: Hello. Thank you for your question.Yo-kai Watch does have a player vs. player multiplayer option via Local Play only (where the other player is in your immediate vicinity). It requires both players to have the game cartridge (no Download Play).I hope this helps answer your question!Best Wishes,Ash
Question: Is this anything as good as the Pokemon games, because it looks very similar, but the gameplay sounds different. I've never heard of it before
Answer: Some people would liken this game to Pokemon for people who do not know the series, but there are actually quite a few differences. For one, the battle system, is more real-time than it is turn-based. You can basically do nothing and your yokai will still do damage to enemies, but if you want to do more damage, then you would have to do some mini-game-like things in order to unleash special attacks. Unlike Pokemon, there isn't the whole random encounter mechanism. You can pretty much choose which battles to avoid, since you have to hold your yokai lens over it for a certain period of time before it even becomes fully visible. There are certain places where it's more like an open world RPG, where the yokai are physically in the field and they'll chase after you once they spot you, but for the most part, I find this to be the biggest difference. As for the collecting yokai part, it's not like Pokemon where you have to weaken it just enough before you can catch it, but you're basically supposed to bribe them with food, and defeat them anyway. Sometimes, they will ask to join you even without you having to do anything. They've also mentioned a function where you can fuse two yokai together to get new yokai, which kind of reminds me of Persona/SMT, but I can't say for sure, since I haven't actually gotten to doing it yet. Also, there isn't much traveling to different cities, although there are various maps that your character can walk to, but they can pretty much do so at any time and to anywhere (except for certain locked places that you can access later on). There is kind of a story line, but like Pokemon, you can avoid progressing or do something else on the side, as there are a lot of side quests that you can do to gain exp or items. There is also a bit of gameplay like Animal Crossing, where you go around catching bugs and fish, which you can either sell or trade in for items. However, there isn't really much of a focus on collecting them all, or the idea of having different "sizes," although there are rare ones. Overall, it is a really cute game that has some similarities to various games, including Pokemon, but some people may argue that they aren't really that similar. Like others before me have mentioned, there is a demo available on the e-shop that you can try out. It gives you a good sense of how the basic gameplay is. Sorry for the lengthy response, but I hope it's of some help.

Find, Befriend and Battle Hundreds of Yo-kai

After selling millions and being a cultural phenomenon in Japan, Yo-kai Watch is coming to the United States for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. The Yo-kai Watch game is about hundreds of sometimes cute, sometimes spooky, and usually mischievous Yo-kai that inhabit our world. Yo-kai are not ghosts, monsters or creatures. Yo-kai are, quite simply, Yo-kai. They cannot be seen by the human eye, but they are everywhere. Whether born from the soul of a deceased human, or an everyday object discovering its higher purpose, their personalities are distinctly humanlike.

As you explore the world, use your Yo-kai Watch to find them, befriend them, and turn them into a team to battle other Yo-kai. Befriending new Yo-kai may not be so easy, though – in many cases, you will need to battle with them and impress them during your battle. Each Yo-kai has its own unique skills and strengths and you’ll use them to challenge the evil Yo-kai and help people in need of solving daily problems – like an argument with a friend or forgetting something important – which may be caused by mischievous Yo-kai hidden everywhere.

User questions & answers

Question: The game card does not come, do you have to download the game online
Answer: Cartridge comes with it. It's in Japanese though. Plays fine. It's not region locked.
Question: do you have in stock to send immediately to Australia
Answer: Yes in stock
Question: Is this Japanese/Chinese version
Answer: Yes, but it's not region locked so you can play it on any switch. My (English speaking) daughter has taught herself quite a bit of Japanese using duolingo and happily played this version with the help of the google translate if she couldn't figure out what's going on. She was worried it would never be released in English since the franchise isn't as popular here any more so asked for it for her birthday in September.
Question: Will this come to the west? English Transation
Answer: Yes, Level 5 has announced that Yokai Watch 4 will eventually be released in the West in English. However, no specific release date has been announced yet.

User questions & answers

Question: Is this compatible with the us version of nintendo 3ds
Answer: No, it is not. RAREWAVES-IMPORTS is selling the UK/European/Australian version to unsuspecting US customers, and the Nintendo 3DS is region-locked. If you have a 3DS purchased in the US, this game (and any other game showing the green PEGI logo on the bottom left of the box shot) will *NOT* work. Nowhere on the listing does it provide any kind of warning. Their Customer Service claims ignorance, but region information is right there on the box. RAREWAVES-IMPORTS are misleading at best, scammers at worst, hoping that the customer won't bother returning it after 6+ week delivery time. They changed the listing to say, "this product is non-returnable and non-refundable", but hopefully Amazon protects against shady sellers like this.

Question: Is this game like a final version that has all the yo-kai from fleshy and boney? or does it function as a dlc with extra content
Answer: It has everything from both versions plus more. You can chose what version you go through at certain points in the game.
Question: When will psychic specters come out
Answer: The release date is September 29.
Question: Should I have played the first one
Answer: If you mean the older Yokai Watch 2 versions, then no. This one has it all as per Nintendo (as I still haven't opened the game yet). If you mean Yokai Watch 1 (The first game), then I would say no, not necessarlily. YKW2 rexplores and explains the original story in a better and grander way than the first. Main differences would be the slight difference in Jibanyan and Whisper introduction and the two having different stories, which wasn't something to miss in the first. Hope this helps.
Question: What connection does psychic spectors have with boney spirits and fleshy souls
Answer: It’s an enhanced, “third version” with both game’s content and more in it.
