I haven't seen a post on this yet.
Today, I went and got a brand new copy of Snack World: The Dungeon Crawl Gold. It was even further on sale physically for just $27 new. I was really lucky to get one, because it's $50 digitally. I made sure to get one, since they say
Level-5 may be halting their North American operations.Last year, Yo-kai Watch 4 was confirmed to be on the track to localization but they've laid so many people off since last Fall that their barely running, only consisting of a "skeleton crew." I'm really hoping to support them further, in some way. I don't want all their future/current games to be Japan-only.
I would really like for Yo-kai Watch 4+ (Switch), the remake of Yo-kai Watch 1 (Switch), and the recent Yo-kai Watch Jam: Yo-kai Academy Y – Waiwai Gakuen Seikatsu (Switch) spin-off to all be released in the West.
So, if anybody could further support Level-5's North American branch in some way, that would be great.

In October 2020 it was reported that the company's North American operations, including its subsidiary Level-5 Abby, had been shut down.
I'm not 100% sure if the North American division has been shut down or not.

As for their other games, I really enjoyed the Phoenix Wright and Profesor Layton crossover game on the 3DS, and I still need to play Ni no Kuni and Snack World: The Dungeon Crawl Gold.
