How does it feel knowing this game influenced Pokemon Company of Japan's decisions in S/M?
I was actually thinking about this. Yo-Kai watch is a serious competitor to them now, so the Pokemon Company has to "keep up". Explains how hand-holdy the damn Rotomdex is.

Thing is YW has TONS of content, more with every game
Pokemon loses content. After the main game there's not much to do unlike in YW
>>29799289
Yo-Kai is shit. So many of them are recolors, battle system is cellphone game tier, and the "content" is a mile wide puddle.
>>29799314
You never played it so how do you know?
>>29799202
>Yo-Kai watch is a serious competitor to them now,
The whole game franchise didn't even reach ORAS sales.
>>29799332
Oh but I did, that's how I know it's shit
>>29799202
You mean the Navi character which is a trope that Yuji Horii's Portpia Serial Murders originated and not Yokai Watch?
>>29799406
Okay if you want to put it that way
>>29799406
YWfags don't even know the ghost helpful butler thing was done before by another Nintendo game. Do you expect them to know anything?
>>29799450
I was actually approaching the argument from the angle of how mindless the story progression is and how it tells you exactly where to go next, not the fact that all these games have a ghost guide in common. It actually didn't occur to me until you mentioned it because I played Yokai Watch only once, and I forgot that the ghost butler yokai existed to begin with.
I know you're not going to read that first paragraph, so how about you btfo to >>>/pol/ you sandnigger
I like the porn
I'm sorry but Yo-Kai Watch is not a "competitor". It's with Digimon as an, albeit less edgy, alternative. Before anyone asks, I've played the first one for a little while and I thought it waa charming but the monster designs don't really do it for me. A lot of them are recolors and I have no idea why they gave Jibanyan so many forms. Is he supposed to be like Eevee? It has the most punchable face ever too.

>Company tries to improve their products to surpass their competitors
You don't say?
>>29799514
I've never seen this yokai before.
>>29799345
YW2 sold more than XY and ORAS.
>>29802393
>7 millions is more than 28 millions
Huh-uh.
kek
>>29799168
I'm okay with it. YW2 was fantastic and 3 has been really good so far. They two franchise are still very different, but you can't have this sort of discussion on /vp/ because nobody realizes you're allowed to enjoy both at the same time. Everything needs to be companywars.

There's a bit of an implied in-universe explanation for it actually
>A jibanyan is made when a car runs over a cat
>Springdale has a lot of stray cats running about
>there are also a bunch of lousy drivers that don't know how to stop until the very last second
Do the math, and you get a shit ton of dead cats
>>29800719
There's only one Jibanyan, he even says there's a bunch of other cat yokais who stole his home.
>>29801709
people don't know about yokai watch's stash of yokai shotas/demon boys
which is understandable, yokai watch advertises shitmons and keeps the shotas hidden
kind of sucks but still quality>quantity I guess
>>29802683
that's not even all the jibanyan clones either.
>>29799202
>serious competitor
Lel no.
But it is extremely popular in Japan (Pokemon's intended market), so I get it.
Would be nice if they stuck to their guns or paid attention to overseas markets instead of trying to rebrand the franchise as Yokai Watch 2.0 though.
At least a third of the dex isn't Pikaclonesyet.
>>29802393
>sold more than XY
It only sold more than ORAS, in Japan, with the combination of all three versions of 2
>>29799372
Sure, sounds like you played it.
>>29800719
Sounds like you only played the first one.
>>29805824
I said I only played the first one, and even then not for very long but what I played was a enough. Wasn't for me.
YoKai what again?
Digimon Cyber Sleuth is better than Yo-Kai Watch
>>29805974
Digimon anything is better than Yo-Kai Botch
