Nintendo first party games usually do get a fair amount of marketing though, just that Splatoon was Mario-level of marketing.

And no, the only reason is not because it was marketed a lot but also because it had no competition.

Many other games had no competition on the WiiU and yet they are not going to sell 1/3 of what Splatoon did, and that´s including a lot of strong Nintendo franchises. Splatoon was freaking brilliant and people realize about it so it was a success, get over it. The fact that the real hype about the game started once people tried the beta says it all.

Well, you cannot buy a game if you don't know about it.
