Problem is, only the ones listed by Phatsaqs are near the 90 range when averaged out on Gamerankings... :S

Skies of Arcadia

PGR2 sold quite well.

How can you forget RSC2?

Deathrow

and soon most likely: Outrun 2

 

[Meier]

PGR2 has sold about 33% of the original. It's bombed for all intents and purposes. Prince of Persia though is probably not a very good title to list. It didnt sell gangbusters, but it's done moderately well.

As far as US sales go, both Wario Ware GC and GBA (moderate success in the US for the GBA version, but nowhere near what it deserves or did in Japan). Also, Sega Soccer Slam and Beach Spikers were good arcadey fun titles that did not do very well.

[Mr Mike]

PoP selling badly is a bit of a fallacy, isn't it? After four months it had sold over 1m units, which isn't band for a brand 'reset' with little-to-no installed knowledge against non-'hardcore' gaming consumers.

 

[Ferrarisimo]

Here's another game that even most of the peeps on GAF didn't buy:

Combat Mission: Berlin to Barbarossa

It's for the hardest of the hardcore.

 

[open_mouth_]

PGR2 still has a year or two of solid sales at the greatest hits price point, so it should surpass 60% of of the original's sales when all is said and done, imo, and that ain't bad.

Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter

.....

Xenosaga (I kid)

 

[Soul4ger]

...CIMA didn't get reviewed well. And rightfully so.

 

[Semjaza Azazel]

I actually think Prince of Persia went on to sell rather well, didn't it?

Plus ED sold like 300,000 copies in America... I don't think that's too bad, although it performed awfully elsewhere.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure PoP went on to sell quite well after the holidays. Not as well as some people would indicate that it deserved, but respectable.

 

[Link316]

any pre-PS1 Square RPG

 

[CrisKre]

You cannot stress ICO enough. VJ should have sold better, also.

Personally, PN03 was a really good game in my book *runs for cover*

 

[Saint Cornelius]

Uniracers. Deathrow.

One week, Demon's Crest had more people return the game then buy the game

Heh. I remember reading that in the Nintendo Power when they rated their Top 100 games (on Nintendo hardware, of course). Demon's Crest was like 91 or 92, wasn't it?

I think in the 80's, but I haven't seen that mag in ages.

And at the top of this pile of games, sits: Planescape Torment.

 

[Matlock]

Psi-Ops

You're my boy, Blue!

ICO did sell well.

Well, it rated highly in *MY* book... I thought it was an interesting idea, certainly different from generic shit coming out.

People seem to love taking what reviewers say to heart. I've already been burned enough times with shit because I've listened to them (Kingdom Hearts being a perfect example), so I just buy what I think I might like. It works out a lot better.

 

[Cimarron]

Phantasy Star Online

Super Mario Sunshine

 

[Alex Anderson]

Phantasy Star Online

Super Mario Sunshine

Oh, hush. PSO's probably sold near a million copies across its various iterations and Super Mario Sunshine has sold 4.19 million copies worldwide according to this thread: http://www.ga-forum.com/showthread.php?t=11376

Wow, that's fucking sad.
Video games and music are kind of similar, in that the majority of people like shitty shit shit shit.

 

[Bog]

ICO did sell well.

At $15.
