Nintendo doesn't have the market which would make X a big franchise.

Yup, that's why Xenoblade completely sold out in the US (why the hell didn't Nintendo reprint?) and now moves $100 for a USED copy. Oh wait...

Not to mention that the game barely got any advertisment.

barely any advertisement?!

haha, then what the hell was 'Operation Rainfall'?

Fans taking action to get the games released in the West. I do not call that advertisment. A tv ad is advertisment, if that helps you. 

I think any public notice, especially when a product(s) is involved is considered some form of advertisement.  How did people know that gamestop/the nintendo store was the only location you could get the game? osmosis?

Then why is the only tv commercials I see in Norway Cod commercials and FIFA commercials? 97% if not more of those that play Cod knows about the game either way, and the same can be said about FIFA. Of cource, getting OR was great for Xenoblade, but very many games get the word of mouth treatment online. Also, Pandoras tower and the Last Sotry also got the OR showcase, and look how Pandoras Tower went compared to Xenoblade.
