"Yo-Kai Watch" is a series of role-playing video games originally released for the Nintendo 3DS in Japan on July 11, 2013 and in North America by Nintendo on November 6, 2015.

Black Friday 2015 deals have been very sparse for Nintendo. However, the company is giving fans a way to build their own bundles even before the biggest sale day arrives.

Now, players can choose their own games to bundle with their favorite Nintendo consoles, DualShockers reported. Fans can now choose to have any of the three systems currently available for Nintendo. These include the Nintendo 3DS, the new 3DS XL and the Wii U.

Some bundles offered in the U.K. is even inclusive of other bundles that feature the "Mario Kart 8"or "Splatoon" titles. This can add to the overall value of the chosen bundle. After choosing this, players will then buy the controller and additional game of their choice. Topping off the Nintendo bundle basket is an Amiibo and a shirt.

Those who will choose to get the Wii U bundle will have to prepare £299.99 (US$450). The new Nintendo 3DS will cost £199.99 (US$300), while the 3DS XL will be priced at £229.99 (US$345). The new bundle offers appear to be one of the Nintendo's holiday bundle offers, given the promotion image on the official website.

Another Nintendo game recently released is "Yo-Kai Watch," and fans who have been waiting for the game in North America can already rejoice in its arrival. The game itself has enjoyed a warm reception in its hometown. Given the design of the game, complete with its whimsical characters there is a chance that players may take it as another "Pokemon."

CEO of "Yo-Kai Watch" developer Level-5 Akihiro Hino shared some insights on how the game has differentiated itself from the franchise. Speaking in an exclusive with Game Informer, Hino stated that the very characters are different, since yo-kai are actually of a different species than monsters. For those who are not familiar with Japanese lore, yo-kais are actually known to be otherworld beings who are akin to trickster demons.

Another stark difference is that the world that "Yo-Kai Watch" operates in is the real world. But the world of "Yo-Kai Watch" is said to be a freer world. Even with a storyline, players can have the freedom to either collet Yo-Kai, go through missions or explore the storyline at their convenience and their own choice.

"Yo-Kai Watch" is a new game that players can enjoy on the Nintendo 3DS. This is an especially great opportunity, especially for those who will take advantage of the new build-your-bundle promo from Nintendo.
