It had reviews nearly as bad as Sonic 06. Therefore, its week one sales were only slightly higher.

I think its fairly simple.

The game is average but no where near Sonic 06 levels of bad.

The game got a 62 on Metacritic. Granted, that's about 15 points higher than Sonic 06, but below 70 or so, a lot of scores start looking similar in the eyes of consumers.
