Best-sellers?

I know that after 261 books, Asimov finally made the best-seller lists
with Foundation's Edge, and I think I've read (probably in I. Asimov)
that Robots of Dawn did too. But I don't know about the other novels he
wrote in his last decade, and I figured somebody here must know. Did any
of his later novels turn up as best-sellers?

If I'm not mistaken, his follow-up novels in the Foundation and
the Robot series turned into best-sellers, at least by The New York
Times standards, though I think the time they spent on the bestseller
list dropped by about half with each novel, at least up to Prelude To
Foundation.

Whether Fantastic Voyage II (which I think is rather underrated)
and Nemesis made it I haven't got any idea. I have a vague memory of
Nemesis being on the Waldenbooks bestseller lists, but I'm not that
confident in that recollection.
