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

so where does that put it in terms of other PS3 games first weeks? 200k is not a disaster at all.

when is NPD anyway?

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.

 

 Would have to be more than that. You can't really count in two weeks of NA sales for one week. So either you use the first week or the second. If you use the higher of the two that being 236k +50k first week Japan you have 286k. So it would need 714k in others to do a million WW week one.

Next Thursday and it's a four-week month. I'm expecting a lot of mud slinging no matter what.

Not sure but I think Ratchet and Clank and Uncharted did worse.

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

 

I don't think people actually pay attention to where games are developed... just the end product.

 Well if ioi does the right thing, then that should be a lie, but I guess we have to wait to see what ioi does. It just sucks because in a case like this first week becomes even more irrelevant than usual, but idiots will use it as some kind of pseudo ammunition for saying LBP had crappy launch sales.

OMFS!!!! ok ok w/e helps you sleep dude. Is just a game and, like someone said before.....the sales that count are life time ones. NOt first day, week or month. So we'll see what happens at the end

Dude, w/e. This is a game that is supposed to have legs. And 160K is not even that bad for a new IP. Especially this type of games. And if people say LBP had crappy launch dates is because all the hype that was created.
