Nintendo sucks at marketing its older-teen blockbusters

As far as I remember, Metroid Prime 3 had little to no advertizing, as with Metroid Prime 2. The first prime had some advertising, it was a big new game with big potential. However, it got much less exposure than Halo.

Looks like you've been on VGChartz for too long

I think overall is has to do with the fact that Nintendo doesn't really have that many titles targeted at that specific demographic. It doesn't help that Metroid Prime doesn't have that mainstream appeal either.

Zelda seems to sell well enough, though.

Hehe, yeah gonna fix that :P

Yeah, Zelda TP was a nice success there, and did get some good coverage especially by being bundled with the Wii advertising, which was massive.

But MP, why does it have no mainstream appeal, splain dat part to me.
