I don't see one bad game hurting hardware sales. One good game can boost hardware sales immensley but one bad game doesn't do the opposite. Look at Bubsy3D on the PSOne, often called the worst game ever made, did that hurt PSOne sales? Or how about SuperMan64 one of the other worst games of all time according to journalists yet the N64 while not outselling PSOne was not injured by its release.
Duke Nukem is nowhere near as bad as those two games. I doubt it will have any impact on hardware sales at all. Look at all the shovel ware on the Wii, didn't hurt sales.
