Do you think someone will bother advertise their products to those games? Even if there is one do you think that will be enough to atleast make them a small profit or break even with it? Just like in television no one will bother to advertise their products to a show with low ratings. Advertisement is not simple as you think.

1. It could work automatically, too, like AdSense.
2. Small audience, cheap game. A billboard in GTA might worth a million dollars, and a banner in Plants vs. Zombies might worth 1 000 dollars, but the latter was already planned to be a thousand times cheaper.
3. Wrong analogy. A niche game is not like a show with a low rating. That would be like an AAA game that fails (Too Human, Spore, Damnation).
A niche game is like a small, local TV channel, that still gets its small, local advertisments.

2. This won't work too. No one will gain from this. |
Please elaborate, why not. In my opinion:
1. The gamers would get access for the whole library of a console, for the expenses of this or the previous generation.
2. The first party company would get big marketshare due to #1 having a huge appeal, and get profits from selling the console.
4. The third parties would get their money, even after those gamers, who would have been pirates in another system
