Flops that deserved it the least

Starting to feel like it's the Wii U library in general lol

So many great games that most will never play... just look at how poorly Bayonetta 2 and DK Tropical Freeze have sold, for instance.

Trying to think of something else... maybe the Kessen series? Did that sell well? Never knew anyone that played it but I loved it back on the Playstation 2.

Oh, as my avatar suggests I always felt FFIX got unfairly overlooked as far as Final Fantasy games go. It has gained in popularity with time, but it didn't sell like its predecessors or successor did.

Kessen series is awesome but it got 3 games and spiritual successors. Which is why I put down Dynasty Tactics 2 instead, as its spiritual succesor only just got announced after 13 years.

I really enjoyed the Dynasty Tactics series too, though sometimes I felt it was a tad too restrictive (there were some fights were it was clear they wanted you to make a few specific moves). Trying to set it up so that you could chain 2 or 3 attacks in a row and take out Lu Bu in one go was a lot of fun though heh, very excited to hear they're making a sequel!

I suppose, if we want to go back a ways, there's plenty of quality games that got overlooked as they were released in the twilight years of a system.

On the Nintendo, for instance, the famously expensive Little Samson was a superb game that I've only played on emulators, and perhaps the most impressive achievement on the system never released in North America and is hardly known by anyone these days (Mr. Gimmick/Gimmick!). 

I'm sure most consoles have some game like this whose only crime is releasing onto a console that people had lost interest in.
