If the gameplay's so simplistic that it doesn't matter, then why are the V4/V4.5/En-Uratamas and P's so beloved, to the point of people asking for rereleases of them? Why do the P's, Smart and Uni sell gameplay DLC? There's clearly SOME level of interest in the game element, even if the meatier devices are still simpler than high-budget video games for the same price. It's what keeps people invested in the whole v-pet side of things, rather than it simply being yet another character merch franchise.
