Yo-kai Watch 3/Glitches

Throughout the game, various small translation and spelling errors and some overlooked and strange things can be found. They are by no means game-breaking, but they give the game a somewhat rushed feeling when compared to previously localized work within the series.

Overlooked Things

 * WHAT.png playing as Nate while in Springdale, Opening the map will display all of the area names in Japanese. This was however, fixed in a patch later on.
 * The name sign in Pecan Port still says Nolan Port, the area's original Japanese name.
 * Something similar is present in East Pine, where several signs say Welcome to East Cashew, Which is also an original name from the JP version.Cashew.png
 * A Babblong in Northbeech still informs the player about the Dream Medal function, even though it was removed from the game completely.

Spelling Errors
Various typos and spelling errors are present in the game during dialogue, seemingly more than any other game in the entire series.
 * Many promotional outlets misspell "Komasan T" as "Komosan T" or "Komason T".
 * There are also several grammar issues spread through the game.Error.png

Other

 * At Seaside Cave, San Fantastico, the small text bar that shows the area's name when it's entered, says Seaside Grotto, all while the bottom screen with the map and the entry in Mirapo's warping list still call it Seaside Cave.


 * ClubName.pngg the request   Help Out Some Guy From School! , the boys Mark, Andy and Daniel think that Hailey Anne (renamed Ellenore in the screenshot) should decide a name for their team. She comes up with  The Miracle Boyz  . However, in the quest menu, it says that the boys came up with a name themselves, where they called their team  The Triumphant Trio  .MiracleBoyz.png


 * 1) Inside the Blasters House, the Grand Monk from the Temple of Virtue in Harrisville makes an appearance, but he is called Mr. Zen. Since he himself appears inside the Blasters House in Yo-kai Watch Blasters, It's likely that the programmers used the wrong character model for the NPC when they put him there.
 * 2) YW3 Mr. Zen-0.png Grand aura Box key item says it has a close-up function in the inventory. Though when the A-button is pressed, nothing happens.
 * 3) In the Japanese version, when Sighborg Y's soultimate hits a Yo-kai charging a soultimate, it turns into him and makes Sighborg Y do that Yo-kai's Soultimate Move. In the localized version, this is no longer the case.

Glitches
Various glitches are known tot exist in both the Japanse and Localized versions.

Sighborg Y Glitch
In the Japanse version, it was possible that When a player's Sighborg Y turned an enemy Yo-kai into another Sighborg Y while said Yo-kai was charging up their Soultimate. The model of Sighborg Y will be used instead, making it look like he is doing a different Soultimate altogether. This was patched out in localized versions.

Texture Load Failure
For some reason, entering either Southmond or Mount Wildwood sometimes causes all of the textures to not load properly. Only the NPCs are left intact, but objects like cars, trees, and houses display no textures at all, along with some lightning and shadow issues.

It unknown why this glitch happens in the first place and it is completely random.

Sequence Breaking
This glitch will cause

Nate to be playable in Springdale before the game is even finished. It can only be triggered during the first visit at Yopple.Inc during chapter 6. To perform it, all the player needs to do￼ is start the team battle in the fighting room after talking to Yopple Bot.

As soon as the player starts the battle, right before any Yo-kai does a move, the battle must be given up after pressing START. The battle will be lost.

Now the player is supposed to reappear before Yopple Bot in the fighting room￼. If said actions were done correctly, for some reason, the player will end up in front of Timers & More in Blossom Heights, Springdale. This allows the player to move around the city freely as Nate, with Hailey Anne still following behind him.

Although not confirmed, saving the game while in this state is rumored to corrupt the save data. Therefore it's wise to avoid doing this.

As of now, it remains unknown why this glitch happens in the first place.
