Look, I made a similar list for wii:

 

http://vgchartz.com/games/index.php?page=2&results=50&name=&console=Wii&keyword=&publisher=&genre=&order=Sales&boxart=Both&showdeleted=&region=All&alphasort=

 

Just read from the first title to the last and then click that next page-icon.

 

This list is generated by your logic that a 630k selling game on 360 is a huge flop. Unless you know the exact development cost of each game and how much they made profit or lost money on any game, we have to be talking about sales figures. Do you think that for example EA would be making those nhl games every year unless they are making profit with them?

Yup because we all know costs on HD and the Wii is the same.
