And out of that 17 million (as of 2012), it has 2 of the best rated games of all time.

Pretty sure you can't have 2 of the highest rated games of all time and remain unknown to gamers.

 

Metroid: Other M

North America: 0.84m 64.5%
+ Europe: 0.24m 18.2%
+ Japan: 0.13m 10.1%
+ Rest of the World: 0.09m 7.2%
= Global 1.31m  

 

Thats with a install base of more than 101million Wii users (if im reading the chart right).

And it sells 1,31m units, and like 70% of its sales in the US.

 

Metroid is basically "unknown" to gamers, outsides the US.

Sorry son, but you can't have a bad game and expect it to sell boatloads.
