Forums - Sales Discussion - Worst selling video games

Anyone know the worst selling video game on a sucessful console?

I say sucessful because saying the entire CD-I library did not sell is a cheap answer.

It's almost impossible to tell. There are hundreds of videogames that saw limited releases and or quickly sank off store shelves.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

I heard once that there was a GCN game that sold less than a 100 copies. I think it was Cubivore

Wrong. I saw some NPD data on Cubivore a few years ago, and it sold something like 10k for sure. The game was moderately successful in Japan, selling 100k if I'm not mistaken.

Problem is if it sold so bad no one remembers it or bought it so its hard to come up with one



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

Actually, I'll venture to say the worst selling game ever made was Echo Delta for the N64 at one single copy.

The game recently sold on Ebay for 1,100 dollars. The game never saw completion and the sale was for a 90% complete version.

Sold so poorly, it nearly killed the industry. Now tonnes of dirt cover that bit of gaming history up for us. Amen.



Why must JRPG female leads suck so bad?

ET sold a lot of copies Nightstriker. Just not nearly as many as was expected (and a lot of copies were returned)

Granted, it did actually sell 1.5 million back in the day. But like you said, many were returned, and 4 million copies were made. So less than 50% sale rate.

Guess its not the worst afterall.
