This would explain why despite the "advertising", the sales wouldn't be strong right away. Channels like that aren't targetting people who themselves have disposable income. Turns out little kids generally need their parents to buy stuff for them, and can't see a commercial and go buy it themselves.
If, like GTA, your ad is running on a major network, like Comedy Central, ESPN, or something of that ilk, then you'll get more people of sufficient age that see it and may decide to go out and buy it themselves. Disney Cartoon channel watchers probably can't take their big wheel to the local mall and plop down $50 for a game at will.
The dedication you show to any particular console or company is inversely proportional to the number of times you have gotten laid. If you get laid enough, even if you prefer a certain brand, you just don't give enough of a shit to argue about it on the internet.
