Well I think with Pokken and Yokai Watch, what happened was:
Pokken:
A spinoff fighting crossover between Pokemon and Tekken, albiet Pokemon is the most popluar video game franchise in Japan, Tekken... not so much, that was already available in arcades.
Yokai Watch:
Level 5 milked that cow desert dry to the point where fans just can't take it anymore! They had enough!

But Final Fantasy... man, I don't know what the situation is there...

If it does well in the world minus Japan it's definitely the last new final fantasy we'll get focused for the japanese.  

 

The best they'll get is the likes of FF7 remastered which in fairness will allow SE to still get the japanese fans lining their pockets.  

 

But if it under performs in the west or at least stays the same then SE will seriously consider going more old school again.  A lot is on the line. 

 

There is no text in your reply?

Look at Monster Hunter Stories climbing up there!

 

As usual only P5 performing well compared to the old entry. And it seems like maybe Pokemon is running out of steam for a few days.

Nah it just had 2 really good days back to back. Doing 7p on a monday with the game releasing in a other 3 months is not that bad i would say :p



Oh yeah, originally this game was supposed to be VXIII, and I thought Zelda was bad with delays.
And we always knew that smartphones and handheld gaming to a lesser degree had become the mainstream or popular choice of gaming over there, but I didn't think it was to THIS extent.

It may have something to do with the 10 year wait... and the diminishing quality per sequel/next entry...



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

That and the shape of the console market, as well, I'm starting to think are the main reasons.
