How much TV advertising appears to be out there for third-party Wii games?

There has been a lot of complaints about third-party games not selling well, but I don't seem to see a lot of commericals to let people know what is out there -- especially when compared to the seemingly omnipresent "Wii would like to play" ads that Nintendo has done.

I remember Carnival Games having a heavy blitz -- and it sold rather well with medicore reviews.

More recently, I have seen several spots for Rayman Raviing Rabids 2 and even an EA Family Play sports commerical (featuring elderly woman playing defenisve back for the NFL's Washington Redskins).

Anyone else remember much else or know of much else?

PS -- I did not mention the Mario vs. Sonic blitz because it is half Nintendo, half Sega -- so it is somewhat first party and somewhat third party, at least in my eyes.

 


I love that commercial. I thought it'd be one of those Campbells commercials at first, but I love the ending.

On Topic: I really haven't seen much third party advertising for Wii exclusives. What I have seen, though, is mutliplatform games being advertised using the Wii boxart.
