Do you think gf will ever realize they can only milk the kids a certain amount (in kids demo YW already crushes pokémon in Japan) and finally being to do something for the loyal, core, not-8-yo fanbase like
>more complex games
>more ambitious spin off
>new ideas
>stop the main series of fucking remakes of RG (because every pokémon game has its addiction and is wonderful, but it's a fucking RG remake)
And so on?

The franchise only lives as long as you have an influx of new players, and no one gives a fuck about Yokai Watch because it doesn't have the same universal brand recognition as Pokemon. So fuck off.

When Yo-kai Watch outsells Pokémon globally, get back to us.

Let's wait until YW is actually everywhere and not only in Japan, and fyi Youkai is currently bigger than pokémon in Japan: even the games now sell more.

>implying Yokai Watch isn't the flavor of the month
>implying Pokemon needs to change to keep up with Yokai Watch
That's like implying that Mario games needed to innovate to keep up with Super Meat Boy

I don't think gamefreak has anything to be worried about. The "mons' in Yokai Watch have all god awful designs. I give it 2 maybe 3 more months, tops

You act like this is some kind of important and large group, rather than a bunch of manbabbies who'll make up something like 20% of game sales at the most.

Youkai Watch is way to Japanese to make it big anywhere outside of Japan. The only reason it's so popular there is because all the monsters are based on their folklore.

Same argument was used against Pokemon like 20 years ago

The main difference is that pokemon isn't almost 100% Japanese culture references. There's a lot of pokemon content that's generic enough for a lot of people to enjoy.

Yokai Watch also has a shit battle system and worse balance than pokemon's
