Youkai Watch

Youkai Watch has been an unbelievable success for Level-5. The game has continued to sell week after week, and has now shipped over one million copies in Japan.

One could say that Youkai Watch got off to a slow start. However, once the game’s anime debuted in Japan, sales saw a major boost. Youkai Watch’s shipments came in at 500,000 units in mid-February, but have doubled since.

LEGO The Hobbit for Wii U finally came out in North America today. If you purchase the game from Amazon, you can partake in a launch-day discount.

Amazon has the Wii U version of LEGO The Hobbit for $39.99 – $10 less than other retailers. That’s also $10 less than the digital eShop version.

And speaking of discounts, Nintendo has now slashed the prices of four 3DS titles to $30 as previously promised. The selection includes Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D Land, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, and Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Retailers have started to open pre-orders for Theatrhythm Final Fantasy Curtain Call with the game having been officially announced for the west today. Amazon is taking reservations here, though you can also pre-order on GameStop here. The game will launch later this year.
