Yeah the thing is advertising does not always = immense gain in popularity

I cant see this one being any different, especially since this is a DS game and there are so many JRPG out there. FFXIII and Versus will do great in NA and EU, not so DQ 9

 

You'd never underestimate the "marketing power" of a company that is able to sold 20 millions of Nintendogs and Brain training copies outside the japan...

It is important to understand there needs to be a latent market out there that would demand things.  A lot of people like dogs, so Nintendogs caters to them.  And people are interested in remaining mentally sharp, which is why Brain Training sold.  Nintendo markets to the rationalization of people that the self-help programs would actually help them.
