Forums - Sales Discussion - Is Yôkai Watch a massive failure in the US?

I wouldn't really call it a good game anyway. That makes me a lot less sad for it to preform badly.



Around the Network

I've a theory about this but I hope I'm wrong and it's a slow burner to success.

So pokemon isn't super popular amongst young kids anymore because they're all playing mobile and tablet games. pokemon fanbase is still large because you've got teenagers and adults who grew up with it and still like it.

These people will just stick with Pokemon and aren't willing to give yokai a chance. The little kids who are needed to start this off like they originally did for pokemon are not interested for the reasons above.

Anyone agree?
