I'm pretty glad they didn't drop the series, liked what I played of the first but heard 2 was much better.

Because the first one did so well in America, right?!
>>26356995
Well enough to warrant localising the sequel

I'm getting some strange BW vibes from these two
>>26356963
kill yourself and your pokemon killer meme.
Why not enjoy both games?
LOL, Yokai Watch.
>>26356963
fucking finally
what took so damn long
>>26356963
pls no more shitposting let's just enjoy both now okay
>>26356963
You are aware that Yokai Watch is dead in the west right?
>>26357176
it's really not though
>>26356963
Nice! I'm actually pretty happy about this. I've heard great things about YW2.
>>26357176
looks like someone hasn't been paying attention
>>26356963
Yokaiwatch is only popular in Japan
>>26356989

>>26357291
It's not a smash hit breakout "Pokemon killer" success like it is in Japan though.
>>26357378
I didn't know that means it's dead.
>Sold so poorly in U.S. it's now not considered Christmas season-worthy in North America
P.S.: Fuck off with this shitposting.
>>26357088
The Japanese titles translate to something like 'Inventor' and 'Originator' so they obviously pulled these from their ass.
>>26356963
Yokai Watch did shite in the west, Pokemon may have some issues in Japan but I don't think we'll have any worries over here.
>>26357378

EU seems to be liking it more than the US.

>Pokemon may have some issues in Japan
It literally doesn't. Pokémon X/Y is the best-selling 3DS game in Japan.
Top four 3DS games by sales in Japan:
1. Pokémon X/Y
2. Animal Crossing: New Leaf
3. Monster Hunter 4
4. Monster Hunter X
The best-selling Yo-kai Watch game (Yo-Kai Watch 2: Ganso and Honke) has sold 3.1 million in Japan. It was released July 2014. Meanwhile Monster Hunter X has been on the market mere months in Japan and has already surpassed it there.

The 3DS Sonic Boom game sold better.

That's not exactly saying a whole lot.
>Yo-kai Watch week one Europe sales: 26,194

For comparison, Super Mystery Dungeon had 54,761 in its first week on the European market; Alpha Sapphire/Omega Ruby 782,184.

Apples to oranges. Different target audiance, different gameplay. And it just so happens that Japan's birth rates are abysmal and adult games constantly outdo children games.
>>26356994
>Final Fantasy killing Yokai Watch
funny you should mention that
>>26357454
The game sales are only a small part of the phenomenon though. Unless you've been to Japan in the last couple of years, you really don't realize that Yokai Watch is everywhere over there at the moment.
YESSSSSSSSS. Too bad for haters cause I enjoy both franchise. The feeling when you will get both YW2 and S&M this year, dude.
>>26357453
>EU seems to be liking it more than the US.
Doubt it. It took so long to finally release here, that most people (including me) completely forgot it was coming out. The hype just kinda vanished over the months.
>>26357139
>Tfw this series breed another batch of Monster-loving or to be precise Femghost-loving fappers
Fuck. But can't wait for YW2!
>>26357532
The general on /vg/ has been pretty active since EU release.
It's topping charts over there too
>>26356963
If I see that Jibanyan variations one more time...
>>26357541
Woah, really? I'm glad cause I enjoy both franchises. And we're so lucky, man, to have both YW2 and S&M this year.
>>26357511
My relative returned from Tokyo yesterday. I asked him to bring me some Yokai Watch and Pokemon merch from there, and he said he had real trouble finding any Yokai stuff in stores. It seems the hype is finally dying off over there.
He said the Pokemon Store was chock full of people when he came there though.
I think part of EU having way better sales than the westbesides the Pokemon Killer memeis that it didn't come out the same time as another big title.
YW2 comes out here same day as FF so I'm slightly worried
>Persona 5
>FFXV
>S&M
>I Am Setsuna
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. WHY CAN'T I HOLD ALL THESE JRPGs.
Localization team, we love you!
>Nier with its own robo-shota
>YW and Level-5 (the shota producing factory) gave us this
Holy shit, the /ss/ age is real.
>>26357606
>EU having way better sales
It only sold about 5k more copies than America on the first week. This is hardly groundbreaking, especially when you consider the population difference between the two
>>26357510
As soon as Pokemon start selling out this badly I'll stop playing
>>26357606
>Why can't we get both
Cause both games cater to different styles of gameplay, audiences and when we're an audience of both then why not get both? Case solved, darling.
>>26357466
>vgchartz
Why isn't this banable yet?
>>26356963
>Releasing the old paired versions
>not the superior third version
fuck
>>26357510
FUCK. I thought 15 was 14, not the shitty online-dependent rpg
