Will it ever get popular in the west ?

i started playing this game today and after 6 hours in i already had more fun playing it then when i was playing the last 3 gens of pokemon, its peak """"comfy""" and (most of) the designs are great

It's not even popular in Japan anymore. YW4 is out today there and is probably going to flop and not even come close to fucking Let's Go's first week Japanese sales numbers.

LGPE didn't sell that well on japan tho, it only sold well on the west where its full of genwunners

Blizzaria is a pretty cool youkai!

Brap.

They cut 600+ yokais to 100+.

user go look at the recent famitsu sales

If they stop 4kids.tving the Localization I might

>and is probably going to flop
Don’t comment on something you know absolutely nothing about

And are going to add them all back in patches, fuck off Serebi

I've seen the COMG pre-orders, the YSO predictions. They point to like 100,000 first week.

Let's Go sold 664,198 first week in Japan.

You want to dismiss reality now, knock yourself out, you won't be able to for much longer before Famitsu confirms it bombed.

atleast they are adding them back in (probably) free updates, unlike pokemon

I want to laugh at this because it has the typical Level 5 curve, also for ruining Kamen Rider Drive's existence.

dunno why you bring that up, also I checked his twitter and that's literally part of the same post too, so I have no idea why you're whining

user is this your first Level 5 franchise?

I know, which is why I hope masuda fucking does that.

maybe

I think it's been no secret GameFreak's been copying Yo-kai Watch for some time now. It really shows too, since the similarities are uncanny but poorly executed.

Yo-kai 3 alone is an impressive title with how much crap you can do, and even has online co-op with bros.

Have you played 3 yet?
it's even more fun!

It's already popular in Spain and France

yeah but who cares

go fuck your pokeball plus faggot

OP asked, I answered

>go fuck your pokeball plus faggot

lol what has you seething this hard? Hearing this dumb shit is dead? Saying this truth doesn't make anyone pro-Pokemon. You people are worse than consolewar faggots, where no one can say anything negative about Nintendo/Sony without being a fan boy of the other.

meant to say "who cares about spain and france"
i fucked up

Any monster catcher will get popular in france.
fucking invisimals got popular there and that was shitwear for the psp

France and Belgium eat up a totally disproportionate amount of weebshit, it's weird.

Post more blizzaria

At least L5 is determined to localize all the games.

Hino said he wanted all the main games localized at least.

this, the last good pokemon game came out more than a decade ago

same here. i thought i already grew out of the "monster collecting" genre but yokai watch hooked me due to the amount of charm it has.

The combat is shit in all of them. The games would be a lot more successful if they just copied Pokémon's combat.

>yokai design was shit
you mean only the new ones,right ?

I don't think so. They should keep doing real time combat, but make it more fun and not as passive.
I don't know which are the new ones, because 3 is my first game in the series.

what designs did you dislike and which ones did you like ? i like most of them except like 50

>France and Belgium eat up a totally disproportionate amount of weebshit, it's weird.

Stuff is imported equally in France (adn thus French language). Equal part Angloshit, equal part Weebshit.
People get to choose between European comics, Japanese comics and retarded gay dudes (and nowadays dudettes) in spandex.
Same for shows. You can watch nuPPG, Ernest & Celestine or Mirai's Future.

It's the same in all countries which import more than the gay spandex shows. Mid East, for instance, is embargoed on a lot of American things and they're now winning global cossplay contests, having sheik's strike deals with anime studios.
Translating from English is simply cheaper because there's an abundance of English speakers who can do it for next to nothing. Hence why a lot of countries don't get any international media and consume a disproportionate amount of Angloshit.

I think it's an inevitability. I wouldn't be surprised to see English 4 release next year at the least.

Hopefully.

>combat was shit
Hard Disagree.
the grid based combat system was fun as fuck.
>yo-kai design was shit
Designs are a mixed bag but I feel like people really over inflate the negative designs over the really good ones
>everything else was pure soul
L5 is very good at making soulful games.
It's why the Layton series is so beloved

I like the ones that look like cute animals and creatures, and I dislike the ones that look like objects with faces plastered on them.

How do you feel about the humanlike ones?

Do the monsters evolve in yokai?

I don't mind them, but I don't love them, either.
It feels sort of weird to use a miniature human like a Pokémon, but it's an unique type of feeling that confuses my tiny brain.

Is 4 coming west?

probably

Expect a full version (with all the updates) like they did with YW3

I would post the pic against this but rabid fanboys will call me a Pokefag so i'd rather not.

Yo-kai Watch is announcing shit at Anime Expo, and given the current criticisms lobbied at Game Freak over their supposed technical limitations, I can see YK gaining a lot of traction with 4.

I tried and wanted to like it, and while the music, writing, and premise were comfy as fuck, the piss-easy gameplay couldn't hold my attention. At least you can do a Nuzlocke in pkmn which makes it a fun challenge

Play YK1 or skip straight to YK3?

What this means: they made games that didn't function to begin with, trying to fix them never worked, so the newest game threw everything out. Ton of effort means "taking the same models and locations from the game before and recycle them. And recolors some"

I can get the first 3 games in this series for dirt cheap where I live. Are they worth it? And do you know anything about the spin off games?

When playing an otherwise easy game made specifically for children, yeah it's the better way to play

>There are actually more than 300 Yokai to befriend

Attached: 306.jpg (675x1200, 83K)

As opposed to "not have fun at all"? Not him but i was so happy to finally play YW3(didn't buy 2 because 3 was coming out soon) yet i dropped it just a little after you get Originyan, so dull it was.

Here is the perfect Level 5 Game:
>playable character: Layton
>gameplay and exploration of Yo-Kai
>instead of collecting Yo-Kai you instead collect and fight with Inazuma Eleven shotas

You too

Attached: 67691379_p2.png (1768x2095, 1.37M)

Play YW2 and YW3

Busters spin off it's great,it's a expanded version of a Main game mode

Are the stories in the mainline games connected. I wouldn't mind starting from 1 if that's the case since I can get it for less than $5

if you can get that cheap, nothing wrong to play it

It's fine to see the evolution of the games

Attached: ywmovie.jpg (1200x675, 98K)

Thanks, I'll check them out

I'm sure you will enjoy the games

I'm probably quitting pokemon now, but I feel like I'm a bit too old to be starting this kiddie shit. I'm finally gonna try SMT though

Try YW3 first

Good call. Level 5 is comfy but smt is a rewarding challenge

Which one is better, 3 or 2?

I'm glad she'll be patched in eventually.

nah

It's a comfy genre

Some do and others don't. Some can be fused too

Skip YW1 entirely

Pokefag here
Thinking of giving these games a try, starting with the first
Any problems I need to look out for?

Post more cute and funny Yokai to convince me to get this when it comes out in the Switch.

It's wayyyyyyy too Japanese to ever become as big as Pokémon in the West. Little Burgers aren't going to understand the folklore behind half the designs. Maybe if it had like Big Foots and Chupacabra's or something

OP you motherfucker you better fucking hype me up for this right now. greentext for context

it's just a phase

Skip YW1 and play 2 since 2 retcons 1. Alternatively play the blasters game or 3.

I hope so
unless you meant playing videogames was a phase

fuck it I'll charge the old 3ds.

The issue I find with L5's sequels is that so much goodies and buffs to some actions are added in them that they make the previous games obsolete with their existence.

Its funny to see a Jilted lover still be mad about being scorned for a new generation and still talk about the franchise they claim to hate so much. Chad Pokemon dumped you it's time to move on.
