| pokoko said: Does Nintendo promote third party software often? I know they did with Zombi U, but I'm wondering if they do the same throughout the year. Sony does, and Microsoft does it on a pretty continuous basis, but most of the ads I notice from Nintendo are for the Nintendo hardware and nothing else. Should Nintendo run ads for, say, Colonial Marines? |
I wouldn't say "Often," but they do it on a regular enough basis. Many minor games only crossed the Pacific with Nintendo's help, Rayman Legends was prominently shown off even after it was delayed the first time, and then, of course, we have ZombiU, which has been bundled with the Wii U despite the title's admittedly niche appeal and lack of longevity. Then, of course, you have the funding and publishing of games like The Wonderful 101, Lego City, and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge.
