Forums - Nintendo - Youkai Watch (New IP from Level 5) is a 3DS game!

Other than in-game graphics, this game features some great animation.

And the new layton game proves 3DS can show non-pixelated animation nicely (they had their charm - you will be missed, old logo :(

 

Here's the original trailer, released last year

Looking now, there are some hints here, like gyro and AR features, and monster/spirits collecting maybe.

How is this even possible on a 3DS?



I don't know why people tell me to get a life. I'm a gamer, I have lots of lives!

Level 5?

I'll buy without even knowing a dime about it.



We should keep our expectations in check concerning visual fidelity. No doubt it will look good, but probably not THAT good.



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

Yeah, looking at these picture is apparent that these are just bullshots. The texture quality is way too high for a 3DS game. Had this of been announced for the PS360 or Wii U, I would have believed it. But even with that said, the textures still seem just a tiny bit too high even for a what the PS360 can do.

Edit: I take that back; this is firmly in the PS360 range.

lolz.

Anyway, I don't really like Level 5's trend of kid's game + anime. They're just going to saturate themselves. Plus they can't seem to make real RPGs anymore, save for Ninokuni I guess.

I bet Time Travelers had a good story. They should be using that talent to make an RPG honestly. Probably would've worked out better than a visual novel. But maybe they should collaborate to have better gameplay than what they're capable of...

I'll just wait for them to make a REAL DQ with SE. I mean without faceless party members and without a big online/grotto grinding focus. If that even happens.


Being fair, the game looks great. Just look at videos, it really looks fantastic for a PSP game.

Both the screens don't make the game justice, the bull one and that one you posted.



3ds is a surprise, was expecting wiiU and the series to move into a nintendo consoles because of it's childish focus.



More of the scan:

A mud creature wearing a bow. That's why I play videogames :)

Me and you seem to have different opinions of what is great.
