Does a game become more popular if it's exclusive or multiplat?

Simple question, is a game more popular (known to the gamers) when it's releasing as a multiplat game or as an exclusive game. If it's multiplat it's open to a wider range of users but there's so many multiplat games that only few really stand out. If a games is exclusive it's mostly known to the users of the specific console it's releasing to, but it can be known more to these people because it's exclusive but it's limited because it's on one console.

Multiplat or Exclusive?

I would gather it depend's on the game and what type of gamer it's marketed toward.

example:

if the gamer is mostly into sport's jrpg's may not be his thing so no matter what console it's on it may not matter.

every gamer has and dislike certain area's of game's I gather it's pretty much based on each and every person. on a whole I think its an even split due to being a large number of gamer's this generation already, hell even new one's ..my mom does like her some Wii bowling.

before that i could barly get her to play any game's that I had for console's. on the ps2 and game cube so there is in some way's a growth in gaming toward how people view electronic gaming in general.
