I don't think it's either. Rise of Nightmares is an average game, but there was almost no advertizing for this game. I remember looking for a release date many times during the year, and only finding out about it a month before it released. This was a sleeper title, SEGA poorly advertized this game, they could have at least given a release date months before or something.
Also I just don't think the Kinect demograph wants a zombie game. Ryse is coming out soon (2012, but soon) and that will likely be the best FP...game for Kinect, and Dead Island also released the same week.
I blaime bad marketing, and a poorly planned release on SEGA's part. If they released it in October, far away from Dead Island, and Dance Central 2, maybe it could have gotten better sales.
