Its not about Code Veronica not selling well but it not being essential. If you are a newbie or a returning fan after several years, and needed to catch up before RE8, Code Veronica could totally be skipped and nothing of value would be lost. The game literally adds nothing. CAPCOM could shit in bag and call it Resident Evil: Were not trying, and it would still be a multi million seller, ya know like RE6 which as of last update is CAPCOM 3rd highest selling game. The butthurt is blinding you to the truth.

Code Veronica matters far more to the overall plot of the series than Nemesis imo. It feels like a proper sequel to Res 2, as it follows up on the unresolved storyline of Claire searching for Chris. It also continues the Wesker storyline which Nemesis also completely ignores. 

But NOTHING comes from it. Claire searching for and finding chris? So what? What does it do for overall lore? Code Veronica has the most forgettable villians and co star(steve) in the entire series. What essential information is missed when going from 3-4 and skipping CV? Code Veronica is like those many Kingdom Hearts games that came out between 2 and 3 with one solely existing just to tell us why Mickey had no cloack at the end of KH1 ... Ok, is that majorly important?
