Damn, it's almost annoying how many stats/sales thread we have around here.
I was thinking about that the other day, we never look at the games that sells badly. It gets me curious and would make some different stats/sales thread for a change.
So, what about some list of the biggest bombas of this gen?

The problem is that stats threads depend on rapid changes in various totals. An entire stats sheet dedicated to poorly selling games would change very little from week to week.

I found this list a little while ago when I was searching for info on Bust-A-Move 3000 (cumulative figures up to July 2003 NPD, dates given are the games' release dates). It seems Virtua Quest is NOT the biggest bomb of the generation, as I suspected.

One day, those will be worth at least $20.

Amazon is still selling Transworld Surf through TRU for $49.99, in fact. GQD is listing sealed copies against them for less than $20, though, so I doubt that's much of an indicator.
