PopCap has announced that the brilliant Plants vs. Zombies sold more than 300,000 copies in the first nine days it was available on Apple’s App Store. This has resulted in a gross of more than $1 million.

“Plants vs. Zombies is our latest major franchise to make the jump to iPhone, and from the early customer and critical feedback it appears to be a great adaptation of the game,” said Andrew Stein, director of mobile business development at PopCap. “There’s always a concern when bringing a computer game to a mobile, pocket-sized device that something will get lost in the process, but in this case the overwhelming consensus is that Plants vs. Zombies is even more fun on the smaller touch screen!”

PopCap can seemingly do no wrong. The publisher also announced that it has sold more than 3 million copies of puzzler Bejeweled.
