Maybe people forgot that Nintendo exists, and I'm being serious. There are also many prejudices against Nintendo, like they only make Zelda, Mario and Pokémon games, but actually they have a good bunch of IPs but they pass unnoticed because they don't catch too much attention. And we still don't have confirmed numbers for Bayonetta 2 in the United States. Even if it has already vanished from British and Japanese charts, I hold my breath |
That's on Nintendo to be honest. There is VERY little advertising coming out of Nintendo in the UK and North America. Unless it's one of their big names, they don't commercialize it on TV, billboards. I don't even see anything in Gamestop. You walk into Gamestop and even C-list Xbox One/PS4 games are being advertised around the store, especially during the summer when bigger titles are scarce, yet there is hardly anything about games like Wonderful 101, Professor Layton and so on. Not every single gamer spends time on message boards where they can be exposed to these types of games, I know I wouldn't have known about Wonderful 101 had it not been for VGC.
