That's what you get when you advertise your products properly. Congrats!

I really doubt that Code Name: S.T.E.A.M would sell 1m in Japan only if they advertise it properly. :)

I mean the games being good and appealing means a lot too. But look at Bayo 2 and look at Splatoon. The good marketing made a huge difference.

I know what you meant, but there is huge difference between Bayo 2 and Splatoon, Splatoon is mass appeal game on same level like Mario Kart and Smash Bros are, Bayo isn't nearly mass appeal like Splatoon. So basically Splatoon is not just great game but it has mass appeal like games that I mentione, and that's why they marketing so much, because Splatoon for Nintendo is becoming huge new IP that will be Nintendo shooter in way that Mario Kart is Nintendo racing game and Smash Bros Nintendo fighting game.
