The Golden Egg hunt is on.

Actually think they can bring a Youkai game on the Wii U but won't have a big impact on the West unless of course Youkai 3DS explodes here (unlikely).

Why do you think Youkai Watch would be unsuccessful in the West? They haven't yet brought over a single game of the series. For all we know, it could be even more successful than in Japan.

Well I don't remember the last breakaway title from Japan similar to Pokemon. I think it will be successful but in relative terms (1m+ in the West). I can't see it doing Pokemon esque numbers though

Is he hinting at a new IP? Or maybe pinning hopes on splatoon? I doubt they will ever put Pokemon on wii u. Not the main franchise.

Also 300 bucks is too expensive for 1 piece of software to make a big difference.

I think this is last year that could trigger drastically better Wii U sales (with price cut), in any case this year I expect better sales than 2014. sales.
