GAMER LOUNGE 20XX (NO CASUALS!!)

[Yawackhary]

Can see it do decently in the US, not massive and no way the next big thing but as a cult series that has and will develop a fan base? Yep. I can also actually see doing it decently in France and Germany, maybe but not the UK where it would struggle. Probably not as bad as Inazuma Eleven, the other Level 5 RPG series and one of the few Nintendo published games that is cheap as chips new due to how bad it sold. While the 3DS is in a better shape than the Wii U, only places where I've seen Nintendo adverts are on Cartoon Network plus they are pretty old games too (e.g. Mario Kart 8, Splatoon, last year's Pokemon) and not as many places to buy Nintendo games to begin with. Just Game, Grainger Games and possibly Argos might have them as well as the usual online places like Amazon. So it is going to take Nintendo all sorts to make it even the next Splatoon nevermind the next Pokemon.

On the other hand, the game is coming out next year [I don't know when, by the time EU gets it Yokai Watch 2 comes out in the US and the 3rd game in Japan!] and instead Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam is getting released the same time as Japan so the main focus is on that and any momentum from the US release gets lost. Plus Mario is more well known than what is a new RPG series even though it has done well in Japan for the past couple of years. M&L: Paper Jam I'm possibly getting since I actually do like the Mario & Luigi series but Yokai Watch doesn't interest me sadly.

Then again Tomodachi Life was a surprise hit so I don't know.
