Yo-Kai Watch 2: Psychic Specters isn’t just the best Yo-Kai game currently available outside of Japan, it’s also a fantastic title in its own right. Though its opening hours retrace the first Yo-Kai Watch a bit too faithfully, the rest of the experience is absolutely worth it; this is an endlessly charming RPG that captures the fun and wonder of childhood adventure, with the added excitement of a few hundred paranormal pals. This Psychic Specters edition perfects the formula, and if you’ve never played any version of Yo-Kai Watch 2, this is the one to get — though even if you’ve already pledged allegiance to the Bony Spirits or Fleshy Souls, there’s plenty here to draw you back in, and a save-import function means you won’t have to start from scratch. A highly recommended haunting.
This "definitive edition" is the best way to play Yokai Watch 2, with minor additions, but interesting ones nonetheless.

This game is amazing. Yo kai watch 2 bony spirits and fleshy souls was already fantastic with their story and post-game. But psychic specters is the definitive monster collector game. It's post game is endless with lots of new bosses, quests and places to explore. There are also 10 new yo-kais to collect including the onis and the S rank version of jibanyan, komasan and komajiro. This game is fantastic

All in all, a great way to greet a great console.
Out of the three versions this is the Yo-Kai Watch 2 to get, it’s very much what has gone before, but this time they’ve thrown in the kitchen sink.
The improvements received in Yo-Kai Watch 2: Psychic Specters are scarce enough to make the player interested in him. The mechanics continue to work but perhaps it would have been better to launch it as downloadable content.
My opinion of the Yo-kai Watch franchise has faltered. [Issue #30 – November/December 2017, p. 72]
Even though there is a lot to do in the game, much of it is going back and forth, backtracking which, once again is another thing that got on my nerves. The gameplay is also quite repetitive and for the most part on the easier side. Just as I started to enjoy and appreciate the game for what it was, it was nearing the end. Because of its downfalls, I can’t see myself wanting to play this game more than once, but for those who are fans and want to experience everything within the world of Yo-kai Watch, there might just be enough extra content in here to warrant you playing through again? Yes, that is a question and not a statement. What kept me going, however, was how nice the game looks. The story is also surprisingly captivating and legitimately interesting and the humour, while at times a little juvenile and crude and did make me laugh out loud. The gameplay though just isn’t up to scratch.
By far the best RPG on the system. It has over 400 Yo-Kai to collect, a huge world to explore, and it's so full of personality! After you beat the game, there are still so many things to do, such as side quests and exclusive post-game stuff, such as a quest where you get to explore Whisper's past and actually play as him. In addition, there are m a n y exclusive Yo-Kai to this version, such as Darkyubi, Illuminoct, and Komajiro S. This is one of, if not the best game on the 3DS, and one of the best RPGs ever made.

if you want to get into yokai watch, skip directly to the second game and play it undubbed if you can as the us names and voices are terrible.
unfortunately it suffers from a cringeworthy "how do you do fellow kids" "eat your hamburguer apollo" localization, but it's still a really fun and amazing game.
this is the next evolution of games like pokemon and such, while pokemon keeps de-evolving, this game just keeps getting better ( the current one as the time of writing this, yw4, is just a joy to play )
you know that feel when you played pokemon for the first time without knowing anything? discovering the creatures, the world, the soundtrack.. this game will make you feel that again. just don't go in thinking it's a pokemon clone or whatever, be open minded and don't expect anything.
as to why i say to skip the first game, it's because it's more of an experiment, it's short and feels kind of unsatisfying when it's over, a lot of is repeated in yw2 anyway. but by all means, go and experience it when you're done with yw2.

Es mi juego favorito de todos junto con super paper mario y zelda breath of the wild y aunque eso es un logro (ya que he jugado muchos juegos) pero aun así algunas cosas no me gustan mucho como la pesadilla subita, la cual me gusta más la del primero pero eso no es nada comparado a mi experiencia con este juego
