DUde? There's a huge difference in having a 30 second trailer that is made up of just game footage, vs a whole marketing campaign.
Look at This:
compared to
Bayonetta 2 and
W101 which if yous search you won't find any tv commercials for. Only trailers from their shows will be found for W101.
Right now marketing with yourtube, and doing a campain is the way to go it's worked for Destiny, uncharted, Halo, Mario Maker and even
splatoon had awesome commercials with either catchy music or unique trailer.
Bayonetta 2 was like every other resident evil, capcom game trailer.
And the one I posted I didn't see them promoting a bundle in that commercial for it.
Please go look at how much splatoon, Mario maker, SMash, and mario kart were shown at their directs, treehouse. Ton's of coverage.
Look at
Bayonetta's with a translator
Here's
Zombie U where they basically had to explain the concept of the console and the game. Your right such great advertising and promotion.
My whole argument is these games do not get treated equally, and that is why there is a huge discrepancy in awareness to buyers, and sales for these games compared to Nintendo's first party.
Which is why games targeted towards an older age group dont do well. Nintendo does all for shit when it comes to games like those. Look at Mad world. WHy have it at all if they treated it in the way they did.
Consecutively they have done shit to promote anything platinum does, or games that are not big franchise games.
It's like you fail to see why these games end up the way they do? It's like you don;t see how 3DS has games that are more mature and do well, because of how they are promoted compared to the their home console counter part.
Here's a 3DS list of mature games just off of
Gamestop
And a lot are from well established series like Resident evil, persona.
Unless the game is from a series that's proven on their console they do but shit to market it in the same vein almost as their first party games.
So your saying this is all part of my own narrative?
So I was wrong on the Amiibo for bayonetta 2, forgot that rumor a while back got debunked. But everything else I showed you somewhat backs up what I'm saying.
