So SEGA will advertise Mad World because they want it to succeed? As oppose to Capcom, who wanted Okami and God Hand to fail? :/.

 Where are people dreaming up this idea MAd World is going to be marketed well? Because at the moment it means you can dream up higher potential sales? I dunno, I can't see it. No one knows what Mad Worlds advertising and marketing will involve, if exsist at all.

Aya, I am beginning to think that you are being obtuse rather than ironic.

Capcom didn't avdertise Clover's games for whatever reason - probably because their investments in the properties created by the studio were not very large, and the games were relatively inexpensive to produce. I can't say as to why.

But SEGA has stated that they intend to push Mad World, and they have already given it more exposure this far before release than Okami and God Hand received during their entire lifetimes. This isn't a matter on which one can debate.

 Marketing and Media Exposure are completely different, namely the latter costs SEGA no money. Maybe this is more then God Hand and Okami ever got, but will Mad World win the GOTY awards and host of excellent reviews Okami received? They're all examples of just press hype.

As for marketing, I don't think we know how SEGA will tackle this. SEGA have said they intend to push Mad World, but what else were you expecting them to say?
