How else can you measure quality if not through sales? You're opinion? Hate to break it to you but your opinion is not gospel, it's all relative. Sales are not.

So as long as "everyone" is doing it, it must be the best thing eva...? Is this your opinion?

No, but if people are buying X thing more than Y thing, is clearly they prefered X thing. Hence, they like it more, so is better in the consumers' eyes.
I think that's the better way to measure quality in videogames.

Things that are better than other things if using this method throughout history:
Miley Cyrus > Radiohead Rush Hour > The Departed "random bad president">"president he defeated in election" "Nazi Party">Democracy (WWII era Germany)
ANY indication that popularity is a judge of quality is flat out stupid.

Thank you. The masses can rule, but it doesn't mean they are always right.
