Except its movies are still huge in Japan while Pokemon movies have worse and worse results.
Also third game sold worse than second game but better than the first game.

Obviously 4th game will happen and its likely it will sell better.

Also at the vey last YW games are full of content. YW3 recently got a huge free update with extra areas from previous game, new missions and minigames

Meanwhile we're getting shorter and emptier games with each entry

Their merch isn't. Their game sales are down in the ditch, but as a brand they're still raking in the cash.

That just means that the YW anime is doing better than the Pokemon anime. Not that hard considering the Pokemon anime is shit, it's clear by now that the Pokemon anime's falling viewership is having few if any effect on the games or other parts of the franchise.

That whole meme was based on media hype anyways. I have a bunch of friends in Japan who told me the "YW is killing Pokemon!" narrative made them scratch their heads because Pokemon was still taking in dough and kids were getting kind of sick if YW, both the games and anime.

That being said I don't think YW is dead, it just never was a Pokemon killer.

No evidence of that. If anything what's evidence we have, albeit weak, suggests the opposite. YW started falling behind Pokemon in TV ratings (normally not the kind of data I want to use, frankly, because of so many caveats) midway through XY&Z, and it's been behind Pokemon pretty much ever since.

It was doomed to fail. Too Japanese. Only Yokai that applies to children are Jibanyan (and its recolors) and maybe that black bear.

Those numbers aren't very representative, since they primarily just cover manga, music and home video releases. Neither Pokemon or Yokai Watch get most of their money from that. I don't know about YW, but the Pokemon anime doesn't even get home releases, just rental DVDs, so those "home video" sales are JUST the movies.

Looking at the forum thread,
>OP merchandising alone dwarfs this list. Last time Bandai released revenues for their franchise One Piece made over 10 billion yen in merchandising alone, over three times what it made on this list only looking at DVD and manga sales. Konami makes billions off Yu-Gi-Oh but its not anywhere on this list. Nobody should be using this list as a gauge of profitability or popularity.

That list is not a good gauge of anything, seriously.

As far as I'm concerned yokai watch offers more for its fans than pokemon does. Digimon has always suffered from a shit budget but they do their best and Smt has always been dope in its own way. Pokemon has the money and potential to go above and beyond but they always hold back. Hopefully with Gen 8 on the switch we get the ultimate pokemon experience

I don't even like YW, but it's pretty fucking obvious a list that only counts home video, manga and CD sales isn't a very good showcase for how well ANY of these franchises are doing.

"New Content" has a completely different meaning for Level-5. They just rehash old locations from previous games, add new fetch quest , completely pointless minigames and artificially increase the roster with fucking recolors

I have no interest in Yo-Kai Watch but if an actually GOOD Pokémon knockoff came out I would jump from this sinking ship of a franchise in a heartbeat. I like Pokémon designs but the gameplay has been getting worse and worse and worse lately and SM are unplayable because of its intentional design choices. USM will probably be my last game for a while because I'm not getting a Switch, and I expect it to be just as bad as SM in the areas I find bad in SM in the first place.
