BrutalGamer Bringing you Brutally Honest feedback from today's entertainment industry.
Yo-Kai Watch, Toki Tori 3D, and Rodea: The Sky Soldier all release for 3DS this week.
Yo-Kai Watch finally gets to prove itself: will it find the same popularity with a global audience, or will it succumb to differing interests? You can get a taste of it for yourself with the free demo, or jump on the boat as it comes into shore tomorrow, November 6th. I enjoyed my hands-on time with the demo, and will definitely be picking up the charming title soon.
Also releasing, come November 10th, is Rodea: The Sky Soldier, from Sonic and Nights creator Yuji Naka, available for Wii U and 3DS. If you pick up a Wii U physical copy, you’ll also get a Wii copy as well. While I haven’t had a chance to play it yet for myself, I’m interested to see how it controls across the different versions.
Beyond that, Toki Tori releases for 3DS, and there’s the usual round of sales.
