If this games sells 100k it is a success, it is niche and rated M. It is probably also made with a significantly lower budget than most of the heavily advertised games.
On a side note, the reason why these ultra-hardcore niche games are made and risk of a loss is acceptable is that there are some executive at the big publishers who believe that gaming is an art (or fanservice). Plus these games usually pick up a following that buys the $50 bust, $30 action figures, and $20 graphic novels. Nevermind all the money they are going to make selling collectible beam katanas.
I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
