Iron Oni Force Super Link#
Yo-kai Watch Busters: Iron Oni Army (妖怪ウォッチバスターズ 鉄鬼軍 Yōkai Wotchi Basutāzu: Tekki-gun) is a version of Yo-kai Watch Blasters released in Japanese arcades in late 2015. After the release of the Moon Rabbit Crew expansion for Red Cat Corps and White Dog Squad, you could link the two games with Iron Oni Army for extra functionality.
The ability to link with Iron Oni Army was disabled in all versions released outside of Asia, but mostly-translated image assets exist for the linking interface within the data of the 2.3 Moon Rabbit Crew update, where it is referred to as Yo-kai Watch Blasters: Iron Oni Force.

There is also an untranslated logo included in this image data, implying that a localization of the arcade cabinet was either not planned at all or abandoned very early on in development.
The tutorial for the arcade is translated, well... almost, some of the text is still in Japanese and the logo on the back says "Busters" instead of "Blasters".

Moon Rabbit Crew Opening Icon#
There is a thumbnail for the Moon Rabbit Crew Opening Theme in the data for the Movies app, despite the opening theme for Moon Rabbit Crew getting cut from the western localization.

Test Maps#
Inside ywb_lg_en.fa/data/map a total of 12 test maps folders can be found, unfortunately the only thing left inside are textures.
A lot of textures in testmap look like they are from other places in the game, like the golden egg in Downtown Springdale or the ground in Hot Springs, however... an unfinished version of the texture used for boss trophies can be found inside.
Inside of all the test maps, this image can be found, probably just debug text.
Unused Text#
Song Medals#
In the Moon Rabbit Crew update, Song Medals were added to the game to give stat boosts during missions.
In the western localizations, the Song Medals were removed and replaced with summoning songs for the Yo-kai Watch Model U. However, text strings for some of the Yo-kai Song Groups still exist in the data. This change would later be retained in Yo-kai Watch 3.
