3rd version of Youkai Watch 2 announced in CoroCoro magazine, coming out on Dec. 13

There's a bit of Youkai Watch news in the latest CoroCoro magazine issue. Looks like Level-5 is planning to release a 3rd version of Youkai Watch 2 on Dec. 13.

From the looks of it, it's the "full version" of Youkai Watch 2, whatever that means (I guess there's no more Youkai exclusive to one version). There's some extra Youkai and new quests.

Of course, there's going to be the usual goodies with the retail version (medals and such), and the downloadable version will also have some goodies (not physical, obviously).

Release is on Saturday, which is a bit unusual. Just a reminder: movie comes out on Dec. 22, so timing is just right.

Just saw the scan. It looks like this version will also have a little anime episode that will connect it to the movie. You can also transfer your data from Ganso/Honke to this game.

GOT MILK?

God, that game will be in the top 10 till like 2016! Jeez, it sells like crazy!

Oh god, not sure what they are doing to this series. Hopefully it can hold its popularity but it looks like they are trying to milk it dry ASAP rather than pull a Pokemon and make some great cash each year for decades =(

Well aside from the last gen, Pokemon has been doing this "3rd version" from decades now. Also, this isn't really news in Level-5 since Inazuma Eleven 3 had the same treatment.

Hope Level5 knows what they are doing

Youkai Watch 1- July 11th 2013
Youkai Watch 2 (2 Versions)- July 10th 2014
Youkai Watch 2 (3rd Version)- December 2014

Add to that they have the anime and manga. They need to pace it out or it will end up like Inazuma.

Its a more popular franchise than Inazuma, but yeah I agree, at this rate it will end like Inazuma... sadly.

It's like they've adopted the Pokemon release model but sped it up by a factor of three.

Insert 'three times faster' joke here.

and to think COD/Pokemon gets milked XD

They've gone towards the old Pokemon way.
