LittleBigPlanet Sells More Than One Million Units

LittleBigPlanet has proved to be quite popular among PS3 users since its October launch in North America and Japan and November in Europe. The game has not been out for two whole months yet and it has already sold over one million units in the areas of release.
During the past six week, total sales in Japan are 0.9 million, in North America and Europe sales are at half a million in both regions. These sales are only expected to grow as we get closer to Christmas, but with all the hype surrounding the game over the past year or so you would have expected the game to sell upwards of 2 million or more. By the end of the year we should know more for sure though.
If you would like to see the weekly sales chart showing the sales per region of LittleBigPlanet it is listed after the jump. Big thanks go out to PS3 Hype for compiling it for easy access.
