Here in Canada Nintendo has done a pretty good job in the past. Nintendo doesn't advertise individual games they always advertise the system in the system ads about 5-10 seconds is given to each game.
Many of the GameCubes commercials consisted of about 3-games each. These ads swamped television screens. But now all their is a couple WiiSports and WiiPlay and MarioParty ads I have only seen MetroidPrime3 advertised once. But back during the GameCube I saw dozens of MetroidPrime2 commercials as well as BattalionWars commercials.
I feel that Nintendo has lowered their game for the Wii. They advertised so heavily for the DS. They continue to advertise heavier for the DS then they do Wii for every 15 or so DS ads I see about one Wii ad.
Honestly I can see some of the reasons (Lack of quality software to advertise) but the Wii needs to be given another boost. Otherwise while hardware may sell software will not (Other then Galaxy)!
