The more YW 2.5 sells the more money Ninty made though.
yeah, seriously
no matter what, Nintendo's in a win-win situation when it comes to YW and Pokemon

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
I commend Level 5 as their multimedia franchises are top-notch and always seem to attain a certain level of success, especially in Japan. But they burn-off a few years later, only to be replaced by another property - let's hope Hino knows what he is doing.
Jinbanyan is everywhere my friend tells me, who lives in Japan. Youkai Watch is talked about in school playgrounds and such. Pokemon is still very popular, but she tells me it's very much a different scenery comparatively to last year. Adults still love Pokemon, but children are less enthused and mostly speak of Youkai Watch, and Pokemon as well but more casually.
Also, the media in Japan speaks as though it's Pokemon vs Youkai - it's quite funny.
Oh c'mon
It's certain that Nintendo would rather have people purchase Pokemon ORAS (though they are not it's publishers in Japan, Pokemon CO is), but Nintendo is getting money for each title produced for Youkai! They are pleased either way!
The Pokemon Company with less merchandise & licensing sales, less so lol

There's no reason why Nintendo should intentionally limit YW2.5 stock; first of all, it's not legal; secondly, Nintendo earns from royalties and from hw increase that the game will likely bring.
There seems to be the need to spin everything into a negative. Instead of seeing it as a further successful 3rd party IP on a Nintendo system in Japan. Pkmn and YW kind of remind me of DragonQuest and FinalFantasy, when it comes to DQ and FF I think they actually helped each other in the long run, for example despite DQ beeing more popular I think it is safe to say that also FF managed to introduce a signifant amount of gamers into liking the JRPG genre, which partly also helped DQ in finding new customers.
About YW right now it is still in the early hype phase, the comparison with YuGiOh in its strongest years isn´t that bad. The latter had quite huge years as well, but there is always a danger of decline. It will be interesting to see if Level5 manages the IP well enough to keep the hype-train rolling for more than this generation. Right now it seems quite well managed and like a series that could be successful for quite a long time, the biggest question is how big it will be going forward, right now it is still in its full hype mode, YW3 has a chance of even growing compared to the previous titles, after that we´ll likely start to have a clearer view to how the series can perform after its current position in the spotlight.
For Nintendo, Lv5s success is quite beneficial, not just when it comes to royalties but it could also be a further selling point when it´s time for their next gen handheld, as long as the main entries remain on their handhelds.
Maybe next Pokèmon gen will abandon the top perspective and it'll go for a normal 3rd person view, which would be a possibly better fit for an hardware nearer to Wii U's standards as the next handheld should be. But that would also require a possibly insane amount of work, a lot bigger than XY, even...

More importantly, YW could bring new audience (i.e. kids) on 3DS, who will eventually buy other games; and Nintendo games are the next logically step, since some of them are targeted also towards kids (i.e. Mario, Kirby, Pokémon itself).
YW success is nothing but good news for Nintendo; as we saw last Summer, YW2 was able to increase weekly hw sales, that otherwise would have been ever more worrying. Nintendo earns a lot of money on royalties as well, so having another huge third party IPs is beneficial (along with Monster Hunter and, possibly, Dragon Quest).
Another thing people didn't think about is how beneficial YW is for retailers as well. If you look at the charts, you see that YW2 sold a lot in the first weeks and kept selling well months after launch; it has been one of the best-selling games until November, and now it is still in the Top 10. This means that retailers are able to profit from this franchise with a lot of collateral products (merchandising) and this means that are more willing to store 3DS and related merchandising (i.e. faceplates, bags...).
Stressing the unlikely, unnecessary and irrelevant presence of a causal link between YW sales and the theoretical decline of Pokémon is nothing but a specious argument in my opinion.

I agree.
Moor-Angol really should tone down his Schadenfreude a notch.
Having a third party IP thats able to sell about 3 million copies on your system as an exclusive (where else should it go ? Vita ? PS4 ?) is a good thing for Nintendo no matter what.
The Pokemon Company might not be pleased, but Pokemon will definitely survive the storm.

Do you know what the Pokemon company is and which companies created it? Saying the Pokemon company published the game is essentially saying Nintendo published the game.

Generally a new major competitor has one of two effects on a popular, similar game:
1.) If the original game is still very well received, it sells about the same as it did before, due to a mix of people switching to the new game, and people being brought in by the new game that now try the old popular game. If the new game ignites enough interest in the genre you can even see sales of the old game go up if the development team tries hard enough to compete and raises quality notably in response. A good example of this is the fight between Battlefield and Call of Duty, where Battlefield 3 stormed on the scene shipping over 18 million units, but Modern Warfare 3 was still an astronomical seller. The competition between the two has forced both to a three year cycle to raise quality and we saw Advanced Warfare reverse the series' decline as the first game under this model, at least up front.
2.). If the old game is notably worse in comparison to the new game, the new game slowly but surely (or sometimes very quickly) destroys the old game. EA ramrodded PES to the basement when they revamped FIFA's quality and the same happened to them when Take-Rwo made NBA 2K a vastly superior game to NBA Live.
Yokai Watch will only be a problem for Pokemon if Pokemon can't compete on quality. Otherwise it will mostly generate more foot traffic in the genre and raise the standards they must meet. Yes, that does cost more, but it can also be more useful in attracting people back to the series.
If they rest on their laurels and Level 5 doesn't implode their own series though, then yeah they could be looking at a real issue.

I think it's quite premature to say that just based on the launch week, especially considering how Ghosts had a spread launch window: first on old gen, then on next gen just a few weeks later. Thus lowered the launch potential for the game, but increased its potential after launch, being launched on just arrived consoles.
Advanced Warfare had a better debut than Ghosts, but not by that much and it launched on all consoles at the same time. And, right now, in UK, it started falling quite behind Ghosts, at the same time after the release, and the difference will become bigger in the next weeks, without launches on other major platform. I know these are just numbers from one country, but it's also a country with some similarities to UK, and probably one of the major markets for the game and, actually, home consoles as a whole (especially Sony's and MS's consoles).
It can certainly fall behind, especially if it's not good enough versus all of the other options available, which is more of a problem for mega selling titles where the competition is increasingly broad instead of winning over a specific fan base, though the opposite is true if people decide they don't like this Fall's other games enough and go back to pick it up during holiday sales.
Edit: Actually is it more than 15% behind? Digital is trivial in Japan, but that's about what it makes up now in the West for AAA retail games (it's a bit higher, but there were some minor ones last gen).
Edit 2:
Code:
[Week 03] CALL OF DUTY: ADVANCED WARFARE (ACTIVISION BLIZZARD) - 107,474 / 1,081,634 (-41%)
[Week 03] CALL OF DUTY: GHOSTS (ACTIVISION BLIZZARD) - 156,240 / 1,117,240 (-16%)
[Week 04] CALL OF DUTY: ADVANCED WARFARE (ACTIVISION BLIZZARD) -
[Week 04] CALL OF DUTY: GHOSTS (ACTIVISION BLIZZARD) - 207,799 / 1,325,039 (+33%)Okay so we are looking at a 3% retail only decline so far and then it only goes up to ~14% if we assume it has the same week over week drop next week.
I'm not entirely convinced this is dropping notably yet, especially given digital sales percentages start higher and get progressively lower over time to hit the average, and we're still quite early.

Something to consider.
Every copy of Nova comes with a code to buy the download version for 30% off. Just food for thought.

That's a pretty impressively consistent performance. You can probably go ahead and pencil EO5 for just about the same numbers.
Eh, not so sure about that.
Remakes typically do worse anyway, and the 3DS was still rising in sales back when EOIV was released.
