Yeah, I'm really excited for Fantasy Life 2! The first game was really fun but I think if they have a better storyline for the 2nd one it could be a classic.

I'm surprised they're coming out with another Fantasy Life so soon. The first one is still so recent. But, hey: here's to their success!

And I'm sure Level-5 US will start reporting on it like they did with other games that weren't localized yet, just because they can. Rolling Eyes I swear, they take way too long to bring stuff out here, and it's hurting them more than helping. Danball Senki's anime came out way too late minus any of the games, the dub was awful, it's probably gone from Nicktoons at this point...how is Yokai Watch going to even fare if they're localizing it 2 years or so after the fact? 2016 for the toys, that would mean by then Japan will have moved on. They need to step it up.

Yokai Watch probably isn't going anywhere anytime soon. It's essentially the new Pokemon and will probably be Level-5's bread and butter for a long time to come.

And in regards to Danball Senki, it fared pretty horribly, at least as far as its broadcast is concerned. The entire first series was mangled down from 44 episode to 26.

Layton 7.... I'm pretty sure there was something before about the 3 prequels being the last.... but heck, it sells so we'll be suffering further installments until Level 5 falls into the typical money trap, drastically changes something, and the whole franchise dies in a hole.

It's the last to feature Hershel Layton as the main character, or something along those lines. From what I can recall, Layton 7 is rumored to be an RPG like game. I mostly remember the concept art showing something much different from the previous games.
Anyway, I hope they talk about Layton the movie 2 because we have had no updates since it was announced.
