As someone who doesn't really follow things going on in the world of kids' entertainment or Japan, this morning's meeting was a bit of an eye-opener as I realized just how incredibly, ridiculously popular the Yo Kai Watch universe is. I guess the show is huge, the is absolutely ripping it up, and the mobile port/spinoff Yo Kai Watch Wibble Wobble is just killing it on the Japanese App Store. Here's what it looks like in motion:
Apparently the show is coming to Netflix soon, and Yo Kai Watch Wibble Wobble will be hitting the US App Store to sort of coincide with that. On a personal level, I'm super interested in seeing how all this goes as it's sort of a rare thing to have a game that's doing incredibly well in Asia that also manages to do well in the USA. Is Yo Kai Watch Wibble Wobble going to break that mold? Maybe! We'll find out soon.
