Interesting you say that... the 2nd highest rated game this generation got 38th on the sales charts. (

(if you don't want to count GTA: DP, it's the highest rated game)
Not to mention it was given away for free with GCN for a period of time (and I hope there weren't too many crazy enough to pick Mario Party or RE over it, which would make Metroid look even worse)... that's a big dissapointment if you ask me.
I mean, at least 36 lower rated games outsold it... :eek:
