Re: Yo-kai Watch Sold Less Than Half a Million Units in North America

@Mainsaile Like I said in my previous comment, there's so much content so like two or three potty humor bits isn't going to ruin the experience.

Also, the battle system was like my favorite part of the game. It's so much more engaging and fun than Pokemon. The second game apparently has a competitive scene that actually uses strategies with some of the weaker yo-kai and doesn't let you use a full team of S-ranks.

I like Yo-kai Watch a lot (you might be able to tell), but it probably keep having average sales here in the 'states. No matter how much and how well they localize it, it's just not as universal as Pokemon. People like me who are interested in Japanese culture, role playing games and collecting things will enjoy the game, the toys and the anime, but the vast majority will just stick to more mainstream (in the US, at least) entertainment. Hopefully, Level-5 keeps up the good work with the localization and we get more. Only time (and money) can tell.
