Review scores: no correlation with sales
Launch game numbers: weak correlation with sales. Stronger if the eventual sales of those titles is taken into account (Halo sold the Xbox 1 almost completely hence frontloaded)

lol @ N64 and GC launch games being "highly respected", they didn't help the console actually sell so they still failed.

The highest rated core games sold better than the lower rated core games.

The higher rated 'casual games' generally sold better than lower rated 'casual games'.

Games can be both good and unappealing or poorly made and appealing and the metric for appeal and quality changes based on what games are competing with the titles.



Tease.
