Failed VN's as in Chaos;Head or OreTsuba (don't think that any explanations are needed for those)

For the same reasons why fans are still defending the original work when compared to the original in every adaptation (doesn't have to be VN's or eroges, but for manga's (Light) Novels or games as well)

Depends, sometimes they do but most of the time it doesn't seem that related. Like in what way did the anime adaptation Fortune Arterial benefit August?
The mashifony and koichoco anime only succeeded marginally when it comes to the sales of the psp game but for the disc sales it was below average.
Eventhough i am not sure how much the Koichoco anime impacted on the sales of ImaImo VN of this month.

Also depends, if the vocal fans don't buy the anime discs due to their dissastisfaction then it has impact.
