SPLATOON (aka PHBBTBBHT aka FART NOISES: THE GAME)

[Kriven]

IP exactly. Kirby, Mario (including Wario and Yoshi games), Zelda, Smash Bros. -- All of those IPs tend to get TV advertising of some kind regardless of the exact game, because the intellectual properties will always sell.

Not Wario. Wario Land Shake It got no TV ad.

Anyway its kind of weird to have more ads for things that they already know will sell. Wouldn't it make more sense to try and promote something that people might be too shy to try? Its like they want certain IPs to fail. Why even bother making games that they doom to obscurity?

Maybe Wario doesn't have that kind of command anymore, but he sure used to.



The character had a pretty healthy commercial life for a while. It wouldn't surprise me to see him on the small screen again.
