I never said no-one bought them, but did they sell as well as top ps2 games? I'm not being coy, I actually don't know the numbers.

It's not so much about the individual numbers but the percentage of people owning a gamecube that bought those games. Of course with 5x the numbers, the PS2 should dominate it in software sales. But the best selling PS2 game sold to 12% of the total PS2s sold. Melee and Mario Kart both sold to 30% of GC owners. Sunshine to 27%. And the series that sold those numbers on the PS2 has exclusive content on the x360 which has more consoles currently out there.

Halo 2 sold to about 33% of Xbox owners.

And meanwhile we have people here thinking PS3 games are going to sell to 70%+???

The people that own resistance fall of man whcih are about half of the ps3 owners atleast 40%, will buy killzone 2. Resistance has sold nearly 2 million copies and that is amazing for  ps3 game, and motorstorm is following.
