The subject matter of Captain Rainbow probably kept Nintendo from wanting to heavily promote it. I could be wrong though. Nintendo tends to not promote any of their less accessible games or more Mature themed games. Eternal Darkness, Geist, Chibi Robo, Odama, Custom Robo, Captain Rainbow. They even shat all over putting marketing power behind Conker's Bad Fur Day back in the old days. The market a game like Captain Rainbow has probably doesn't need much of a marketing campaign for the game to find it's intended audience. The full page ads in Famitsu were marketing enough. I don't think a "Wii would like to play" campaign would have done wonders for sales.
