It may be slightly more popular now but it wasn't when I was growing up. Never saw the cartoon advertised, never saw a tie-in video game, nothing.
Biker Mice were popular in Portugal for a while. Most people of my generation(born in 1989-1992) remember watching it when they were kids and having action figures of them.

Eh, really? I thought DBZ was the most well known anime on the planet alongside Pokémon? I mean, who doesn't even know DBZ? It's one of those few anime everyone watches at some point even if they're not into anime. Thought that was a global thing? I know that DBZ at least was hue in USA and Latin America.

Captain Planet?! Was that even a popular thing?
