Why do people think that Yo-Kai Watch will be more popular than Pokemon in the West again?
>>
They're trapped in some kind of delusion.
>>
>>316510813
They are just shitposting.
I want to play the game already. Fucking Nintendo of Europe. That's what we get for getting Yoshi's Wooly World and Paper Jam Bros first.
>>
On another note. I've started watching the anime. Will Keita stay the only person with a Youkai Watch? I can't see how 90 episodes of only him being able to see Youkai could work.
>>
Shitposting and a lack of understanding about how shit works.

Yokai Watch /may/ appeal to a younger demographic, which is always good, and there are plenty of older fans who'll give it a shot, but this game is so much more heavily rooted in Japanese culture and mythology than Pokemon ever was- and Pokemon was in pretty fucking deep.

I don't think it'll ever have a chance of displacing Pokemon, but I do hope it provides a legitimate challenge to it. Considering the success of Yokai Watch in Japan and the lack of an announcement of Pokemon Z so far, I'd like to think Game Freak is actually, you know, putting some fucking effort in.
>>
>>316511217
Most likely take the Digimon Tamers route and trickle them out periodically.
>>
>>316510813
Because Yo-Kai Watch has cuter boys.

And nothing else.
>>
>>316511442
>this game is so much more heavily rooted in Japanese culture and mythology than Pokemon ever was- and Pokemon was in pretty fucking deep
This is my main reason for thinking that it'd never outdo Pokemon in the West. Not to mention that Japan is the setting.
>>
>>316510813
It won't overtake it, but it is a breath of fresh air to the monster rpg style games.
Both games are good 2bh

>>316510813
Because it's already beating the shit out of pokemon in japan.Though why they think that would translate to western success is fucking stupid.
>>
>>316511442
This. Plus, I really fucking want Z to be good. ORAS and XY underwhelmed me.

No. Pokemon got popular because of the show. The show was available for everyone to watch because it was on over the air TV. Yokai Watch is on cable TV, so it's already limiting itself.

I hope Yo-kai Watch becomes as popular if not more popular than Pokemon in the west when it comes out.

Gamefreak needs the competition.

Kids give absolutely no fucks about how "Japan" a game is. Especially this one, the show makes them looks like simple ghosts rather than being rooted in mythology.
>>
>>316513397
It's getting pretty good ratings regardless though, so it's really not as bad as you assume.
>>
>>316520574
newest episode has the highest ratings compared to the other episodes, even the first episode, though I think that was because of the veteran's day week free of subscription channels for cartoons.
>>
Talk about disappointment. I know it's never likely going to be on sale, but that's probably the only way I'd buy it. The demo, which I've been told represents a good portion of the game, was very lack luster and the combat was really annoying mobile-tier stuff and I say this as someone who was looking forward to finally getting some competition for Pokemon in the West, now all I want is for Pokemon to move on to Gen7 and give us the late Gen4-Gen5 years back.
>>
>>316520791
Every single time that demo is brought up someone who owns the game says it's not representative of it. Who you listening to?

> The demo, which I've been told represents a good portion of the game
But that's just it anon. From both sides they agree that the demo failed to represent the 'good' portion.
I thought the same thing before I tried it out the full game anyway
>>
>>316520948
Mostly importers.

>>316521093
That's the thing, some said that later parts of the game are an improvement but that most of the game is what the demo offered just repeated.

Except that isn't the case at all. It's extremely restrictive, even for a demo. You can't change your party, your party heals automatically, you can't access the menu, you can't even best Dismarelda, who isn't even a boss, the list goes on. The demo is really a bad example of the game.

Isn't the sequel a lot better? Like avoid-the-the-first-one-its-garbage-by-comparison better?
>>
>>316522161
the first one can stand on it's own fie, but sequel is indeed, MILES better.
If you do want to skip the first one though, be sure to at least watch a playthrough of the first's story, since there are a lot of things that are confusing without knowing the first game.

The gameplay doesn't interest me, but holy shit Xflag has a great intro.

seriously though if they get to Yokai Watch 3 how are they going to localize this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGQgO7BDs1A

The player is moving to America and they go through every hoop to make sure you know it's america.

>USA USA USA USA
>>
>>316541764
Time lords lose control of mind manipulation to make everyone think they're in america and reveal the real location.
Keita's dad then decides to move to real America.
>>
>>316541764
They'll probably leave it in to satisfy the people who complain that the game is too japanese.
>>
>>316544010
how are they going to justify it is what I mean

Unless they just say he moved to a different part of america
>>
>>316541764
>>316544010
>>316544140
Wait does the English localization say that he's from America?
>>
>>316544845
The english localization at least for the anime goes through every possible hoop to make sure the viewers don't get even the slightest implication that this might be japan.

Any japanese text is blanked out and japanese maps are replaced with american ones.

I love Yo-Kai Watch. I played Honke in Japanese but my knowledge of the language is rudimentary so I'm having a lot of fun with the localized original. I finished the story and beat Wobblewock so I'll catch all the Yo-kai and finish quests.
>>
>>316512693
The demo is a really bad representation. That is basically the whole combat system, but the demo left out key things like pinning enemies, the demo healed between every fight and gave you your soultimate fully so you just destroyed every fight instantly, and you werent able to use items to attempt to tame.

Now, the combat system isn't AMAZING regardless. But the demo made it seem much worse than it is. The rest of the game is comfy and charming enough to make up for the mediocre combat system.
>>
>>316546161
Even then the game is pretty easy until post game when you start to do the Infinite Inferno.

Then it's like a kick in the balls.
>>
Been enjoying the game quite a bit, is the animu any good? If so, sub or dub?
>>
>>316545415
oh it's real anon. It's real.
>>
>>316546317
Oh, it is pretty easy. But the demo really didn't show it in a good light. I went into this game prettymuch blind, but the demo almost made me avoid it because of how awful it was. Very glad I decided to give it a shot, and I figured it needed the support anyways.
>>
>>316546401
if you like slice of life comedies go for it.
It's pretty good.
Sub is usually recommended. Dub is okay (whisper's voice is absolutely perfect, but others could use a little work), but I'd only advise watching it to either support the series or study localisation changes.
>>
>>316546530
I think Whisper's and Jibanyan's voices are pretty much spot on but yeah

No seriously, that's why. Commercials on cartoons these days may as well be paid programming slots with how much space they take up.

The CN version airs only in Southeast Asia (e.g. Thailand and the Philippines.) It's much closer to the original, keeping the original names, openings/endings, and has no editing.

Isn't one of the big things that made it take off in Japan is that the gameplay is so simple that adults don't automatically curbstomp kids in multiplayer? Considering only manchildren play cartoony games in the west, I imagine that would be a factor?

It's pretty fun. The biggest complaint is recruiting new youkai, they can be a bitch to befriend since it's pretty much RNG if they join you. You can do some things to increase your chances but outside of story related recruitments it's just trying to swing the odds in your favor.
