Ni-oH and Persona 5 did not sell poorly. Your post infers that you think there is general number that indicates good or bad sales. Whether sales are good or bad is based on: budget, genre, and the series itself. Persona 5 exceeded all 3 making it a sales success even at Just 1.5 mill-ish (nearing 2 mill)

There are tons of game series that manage to live despite initial release selling poorly. Answer is yes.

I thought i made it clear but my bad. I was considering success in terms of the average videogame production budget that i read about a few years back. It didnt include advertisements into their figurings either. So with that knowledge, id look at games like Doom, Neir, Persona and Nioh and assume that based on everything ive played and then compare these to them, i couldnt see how they could cost soo much less. Then id look at sales figures and see Persona or Nioh at 1 mil while Watch Dogs sat at 5 mil and i got worried and began prematurely wishing for the good ole days lol.

 

Anyways, it seems like i was wrong over all and you guys all seem pretty unfazed about the future of these niche games so im just gonna go with that and try to put this out of my mind.
