Fans bought it, but not enough. Next time talk came of a new game, Capcom replied 'lookit these numbers, not enough interest.'

Which began the stale bread metaphor. If people say they're hungry, but then they get offered bread; this bread is stale and moldy. When the bread is denied, the person replies 'guess you weren't hungry.'

'Can we get Bastila? Malgus? HK? Nihlus? Mission?'
'You can have Zaalbar.'
'... no, thanks.'
'Guess you don't want KOTOR/TOR products.'

Why wouldn't you buy Zaalbar, though? If you were in any way interested in KOTOR toys? He's no Canderous Ordo or HK47, granted, but he was still a party member that you could recruit, and if he sells well, that should put us one step closer to his somewhat more popular partner-in-crime, Mission Vao.

It's accurate to his appearance in the "Galaxy of Heroes" game.
