How educated are consumers? How can this affect sales?

Back on topic, games on like High School Musical seem to sell well even though they're sub par, you can tell developers know when it'll be an easy cash in, they put that name on the box and it sells so they don't try, sad thing is those types of games are the ones promoted in ad's when you got games like No More Heroes and Zack and Wiki that are new and kinda out there that get no promotion, if you just put out ads to inform these people how great they are the trend of the quick uninformed cash in might die out.
