Neither was Pikmin but the only ads I saw for it were on kids nerworks.

Also there are plenty of shows on kids networks that appeal to high school/college students. Shows like Adventure Time, Regular Show, Ninja Turtles are watched by that age group so airing Wonderful 101commercials during those shows could help.


You mean failed adults?

Does it get lonely up there in your ivory tower?

I do, and will.

Good, cos the rest of us will have fun doing the things that make us happy instead of worrying about whether they fit some restrictive dogma of "adulthood". :)



They are lucky nintendo is picking up the tab because this game is looking like a sales nightmare.The game wouldve been better off multiplat. Its never smart to commission platinum games titles at the.beginning of a generation to sell systems.

Nobody said Nintendo planned this as a killer app. As was said elsewhere, Nintendo clearly didn't think Wii U would perform poorly, and to them this was just another game.

I hardly doubt it would have been better off multiplat, though. It's just a weird game, however you slice it.

It *might* have done better as a 3DS or Vita game.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

I already knew this game was going to sell wayyyy less than what Nintendo fans were hyping it up for. It might be a good game, but it only appeals to a very low amount of people.

I think that you'd admit the game would have done much better as Wii U/PS3/360. They might have been able to pool together 500k before the year's end. It certainly would have sold better in Japan at least.
