Forums - Sales - LBP is a SURESHOT Week "1" Million Seller WW!!

LittleBigPlanet is made by European devs right? Shouldn't that somewhat help with sales in EU?

Unfortunately..., LBP only sold about 236k this week. Still more than last week, but not 400k. >_>

It'd have to sell 550k in Others in one week. Given the install base, it could happen, but maybe not.


Oh so its still proprtional to Uncharted in sales (as uncharted had same Week 0 problems)....so that means LBP is on track for 2.3 Million in NA......if it continues in proportion to uncharted that it....

LOL @ you. Definitely a good prediction sir! Uncharted and LBP are such similar games!

^Still, it was the first week that went into sale.... whether is just one store or a million, it went onto sale that week. And since when we count days??? This site tracks games by weeks, like it or not. When the numbers come on Friday you will see a 2 under weeks ;)

 

Ok, I get it now.

If last week a mom and pop shop around my neighborhood was selling Gears 2 then it releases last week right for the entire country where anyone can just walk in a pick it up? Sorry I wasn't aware.

^ come on DMJ, you know what GTA is. Huge sales were expected since day 1

Maybe you didn't read my post. 

I said that it is possible for the game to sell 1.1 million units or more Week one since GTA IV did it.  Then I said,
"I don't think it will happen". 

Where do I need to "come on" to?

 

I know, and im well aware you never said it will. I know you dont see it possible...but the come on comes in when you use GTA to compare. Still, i didnt say it to attack you. I just thought that using GTA as example was a lil bit extreme...still, i know what u said

mmmm ok, i dont see the point but....

 

This site is the one we used to get the data right??? So, this friday we'll see the second week of sales of LBP in America. Simple as that.

Why are the fanboys so insecure about the first week sales? The holidays are right around the corner and all the big games will keep selling greatly, LBP, Fable 2, R2, GofW2, etc.
It's the final sales, not the first week that counts.

You are free to think however you want, I do not see 2 weeks of sales. I see more like 8 days. 1 day limited/leaked sales among mainly 2 store chains, 1 week official release nationwide among all major retailers.

@delemit3

It has nothing to do with being insecure, it has to do with people acting as though it is underwhelming sales or people bringing up saying how everyone claimed 10M lifetime sales, first week million sales, etc... when it was a small minority of the site that thought so. Same went with the Japanese sales thread.
