How do games fail to sell 5K?

A game that sells that low means the publisher failed to get retailers to buy the game.  Perhaps they convined a few mom and pop shops to carry it but no retail chains.

 

Good games that sell poory are usually a distribution and marketing problem.

What if the game is really oddball, or very niche?  Such a title, such as VC that people hype up here, could end up having poor sales.

In regards to very small sales, less than 5000, wouldn't Internet distributed games fit that category?  Stuff over Marketplaces on the different consoles.
