That I can understand- I can see gamers being into it for the gameplay, it's just that like I said, I'm more of a story-oriented person and not a real gamer, so. XD And yeah, that's The World Ends With You! I feel... pretty safe recommending it? Because the gameplay really was a blast, for me anyway. A lot of it sounded more difficult or lame than it ended up being. Attacking with the stylus, split-screen fighting, feeding and clothing the characters to up their stats, etc- all of that ended up being really fun. But again, I'm not a major gamer, so it might not be your cup of tea. XD I recommend like... borrowing it or playing a little bit of someone else's copy to see if you like it.

Yeah, I can see where that'd get tiring eventually. I think most of us who say that probably are the ones who are in it for the stories, though. It's just a personal thing with me: if a game has awesome gameplay but a suck story, I might play it but it won't really hold my interest, but if it has a meh gameplay system that I can nonetheless operate and an awesome story, I'll definitely try it out. I think the best thing is to have a good balance when possible. =X
