According to Major Nelson, Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has has broken all previous Xbox LIVE Arcade digital sales records, selling more than any other title in the first 24 hours on that service.
I just looked at the leaderboards and there are over 400,000 people playing…so that will give you an idea at how well it is doing.
