Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter has stated that Sony’s upcoming LittleBigPlanet is such an important title to the firm that it could be the catalyst for the machine’s delayed take-off in Japan, Next-Gen reports.

“We think that LittleBigPlanet will be a console seller in Japan,” he told investors yesterday.

LittleBigPlanet is being developed by UK studio Media Molecule. As well as boasting a distinctive graphical style, it also employs a number of new game concepts focusing heavily on user-generated content.
