Debatable but irrelevant. Having a following and being able to commercialise that following are very different things. I still follow what Nintendo do but they've made no revenue from me for almost two years.
You can't be sure of that! What if the guys bought Nintendo goods with the money you gave them? Wow 3 consoles + games that's a lot of revenue Nintendo indirectly made from you!

Yes but even weed dealers play videogames.
No, thats the kim kadarshian crowd
There many reasons why Kim K could have pulled in money faster initially. This is only Nintendo's first app, it's uncharted territory for them and it has not been marketed as heavily. Miitomo may have longer legs and start to pull in more cash in the long term as they expand the content. But the fact is Nintendo are a bigger, more recognised and more culturally relevant brand world wide.
And irrelevant, as I mentioned, because just because you KNOW of something doesn't mean it makes you more likely to buy their stuff.
This is turning into one of those bizarre conversations. Why would Nintendo want to appeal to the Kardashian crowd? The question is whether Nintendo can monetise their customers/fans, not someone else's. their first Mobile offering isn't making as much money as other products, but it's early days. For comparison, is Clash of Clans a bigger brand than Kardashian, just because it makes more money and is played by more people?
Not the Kardashian crowd specifically - more like young people of today in general. Unless you're buying games for your toddler up to say, ten-year-old, Nintendo's overall profile isn't very in step with the times. We can just look at the wuu for a demonstration of that; while Nintendo still has games people care about, they clearly don't care enough about them to buy a Nintendo console that basically only runs Nintendo(-style) titles.
DOA NX...
