No

..... We are coming dangerously close to having a thread that helps people understand the "unstated opinion vs unstated statement" and how spot them out.

It is obvious that I recognize it does have fanbase as I mentioned in my first post in the thread. Logically, it would be counter productive for me to make a negative factual statement about its appeal power in light of that, so my second post has to be a what? 

Btw, of course a game about raising Japanese mythology monsters, aimed at Japanese kids, in Japan is going to be hit. Doesn't say anything about its appeal in the west.

Kinda hope not. Then Level 5 will REALLY be only making Yokai games....

After learning about the combat, no.

The reviews are up, it's getting solid 8/10.

When will Europe get a demo? I have no idea how the combat will be.

It could go either way. But to be honest, I think it'll do well, but be a series that has good legs. I'm expecting over 700k in NA for lifetime.

The Yo-Kai attack on their own you have no control over it.  Your basically in charge of healing them, switching them in and out and activating their ultimate attacks.  Its a really passive combat system.

Tbh in Pokémon you just spam the same attack over and over again to win the battle. Talking about the singleplayer campaign of course. I swear the Elite Four still uses attacks like growl. Pokémon only gets exciting when you put in many hours to get your team ready for online battles.

I don't remember that, but I haven't gotten to the Elite Four in some of the recent games.  I remember the gym battles offering enough of a challenge that I needed to grind, especially in Emerald, unless of course if your party has 1 strong pokemon or 2 pokemon that are super effective against the gym leader's pokemon.
