1. Okay then, but why do people still buy bad Wii games? Take for example the fitness genre. Why do people buy the Jillian Michaels game instead of Wii Fit or My Fitness Coach (besides Jillian Michaels herself, woohoo!)? It's because other factors make them want to buy it, and they may not know the quality of the game or put much importance in quality. I'm just saying that the majority of the userbase aren't the type of people you'd find on game forums and aren't going to obsess about ratings and quality. It's not a bad thing, it's just something that comes with being the market leader. 2. Of course it will help, but it won't be significant. 3. This is a videogame, not a TV show. They're two very different things. I know what a conspiracy is, and I know that Gears of War doesn't have any. I'm not even sure what you're getting at here. 4. Fair enough on the language part, but Killzone 2 is selling fine. 5. World at War had tons of advertising on the Wii. I saw dozens of commercials for it. And yet it still didn't get anywhere close to the PS3 version. 6. I'm sure advertising and hype will have an affect on the game's sales, they'll have to. But they won't be significant. Results: No, you are. And I'm sure you'll get the hang of English, just keep working on it.

1- I don't have nothing to say, and i agree with you in this one. But don't means that people will not buy a game with more quality, I have a wii and what i can say, is that the Wii don't have GOOOD FPS games (ok, it has Metroid), If a dude bought Call of Duty 3, you can sure that he will have to wait for a long time in the Wii FPS again. He can even buy, but will have to really impresses him. For me, The conduit looks like the best FPS that the Wii will have (when it launch).
2- Yes, will be significant, a lot of people today have more things to do than stay in the internet. May even be that Call Of duty had advertising in the TV, but what we can expect? Call of duty you can have in the PC or in other system with a better quality, but The Conduit is only in the Wii. The commercials in the TV will cover a bigger number of people. And you're not being fair, you know why? Look these sales:
Call of Duty 3 (Wii):

Call of Duty 3 (PS3):
http://www.vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=4934®ion=All
See? 650M for the PS3 and 1 million for the Wii. We have to compare tha same game to be fair enough.
Call of Duty: World at war (Wii):
http://www.vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=23991®ion=All
Call of Duty: World at war (PS3):
http://www.vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=23993®ion=All
ooh man, I already know that Call of Duty 3 for the Wii is a CRAP, why I will buy the World at war? But ok, the Sales here is better in the PS3.
3- hold on, so you think that who plays videogame can't watch a TV show (sorry if I am not being clear, I am talking about series)? And if great and known TV shows has a lot of conspiracy (what is in fact, is something that a lot of Americans love), why you think that this will not help in the sales of The Conduit? This is marketing, if I like videogames, and I like Series of TV with a lot of conspiracies I will buy The conduit because I saw that the storyline envolve this kind of thing, try to watch X-Files, and after, you have to see the Storyline trailer for The conduit, and say to me that you will not think about buy The Conduit (only think). I love Series of TV and i love conspiracy, i really don't care about the graphifcs in The conduit (I have a 360, i can have better graphics in a game), but when i saw the Storyline trailer i thought "wooooow i will buy this game in the first day", a long time ago I had no internet, and when my father gave to me the internet, I had to study and do other things, but i watched TV and i bought a videogame (PS2) because i saw a commercial in the TV (actually, only one game made me buy the ps2, and this game was in this commercial).
4-I don't know, i think that Killzone 2 deserves something like 4 millions or more, it is selling very slow now, and the Killzone 2 is selling more than 10k (in any region)?
5- the wii is promoted in commercials with the wii sports, people buy the wii (as you said before) because of the wii mote or wii fit, or something like that, but this don't means that the Wii don't have people to buy a FPS, the differences between the Call of duty 3 for the Wii and for the PS3 shows that i am right in this point. But the PS3 is promoted with FPS and action games. You know how big are the numbers of people that watch TV? Will be VERY significant an advertising, the number of people that seeks for a game for the wii not enough or close from the number of people that watch TV. You can't compare what you do with the reality of other guy, you have to see the statistic, I do not watch TV, I really hates TV, but i know how strong the TV can be for the marketing, all the series that I watch is on the PC or in a DVD. But with a advertising in the TV, you can call a bigger number of people (as I said before).

7- I don't have more to say about this article huaehauehauehauehuaeua, these are my points of view. We will see if I was right, but one thing is for sure, if The conduit with great advertising in the TV did not sell well, i agree that FPS is not for the Wii
