I've refused to play Minecraft after going through the beta since it came out for reasons.
But I'm definitely going to buy it for the Switch!
It will be the first time in forever.
I would really like to hear those reasons.

Er no, its massively bigger than the wii u version world size
Yeah, it'll be fairly large but probably won't be as popular as the mobile versions are.
There is no way the game will launch at $60
Well the ancient SF2 and the indie game Binding of Issac is $40, so I think it's definitely plausible.
Pretty sure digital and physical​ Switch games are supposed to be the same price. I saw on the Nintendo web store the other day it was listed at $29.99 USD. Link isn't working right now for some reason.Not if that $60 placeholder price for the physical version is real.
Is it digital only?
Theu did but They would be idots to keep as a exclusive.
An open world game where you craft mines.What's Minecraft?
Quoted the same comment to say the same thing.GTA V is the GTA V of the kid's market.

I can see $40 because reasons, but $60?
Digital first, physical later.
Oh also, the PS4/One editions had a small upgrade charge if you had the PS3/360 versions. Does anyone know if they're doing the same for those who owned the Wii U version?
Still no pricing ?

This is portable while also easily played on the TV and can be played with your friends on the go, even splitscreen in tabletop mode.i guess
but i dont see why anyone would play this game not on a PC if they have the option to
Also, despite all the hits Nintendo puts out, I'm sure they wish they had come up with it. I don't eve make games and I wish I had come up with it.
Minecraft is huge no matter you play it.
Microsoft has made games for Nintendo platforms in the past. But minecraft was already a huge and universal franchise... why limit it after they bought it?
They're still putting it on other platforms because money

Relevant question: How "big" is the 3072 square-block map size used in the Switch version? I've played a little Minecraft before and it seems like a great fit for Switch, but friends who play the PC version a lot say this is really small. $30 seems a little high for me as it is, so I would hate to buy and play for a bit and then quickly run into a wall.
Saying I wish I had come up with a game that sells millions of copies is a weird statement? Ok.Lol thats kind of a weird statement. I do make games and I don't wish I came up with it

But how much is it? There's still no price.
Wait, I thought Microsoft bought this franchise? I'm confused.
For all the people who mock Microsoft for spending $2 billion on Minecraft, that was probably the smartest investment a console manufacturer/publisher has ever done. Not only will they easily make the money back, but they will gain insane profits AND hold the IP for arguably the biggest game of our time.
The money they make from EDU, Youtube and the merchandise side is crazy and then you factor in Minecraft being the biggest game in competitor platforms like Vita and now Switch (well not biggest for switch, but it will be up there, quote me) and it's just bonkers.
And this is just the first game. Wonder what they'll use the IP for next.

Thank you. I guess it's middle-of-the-road for the console versions, but what about in absolute terms? Does a map that size feel "super cramped"? Or could I comfortably put dozens of hours into a survival mode world that big? I'm worried about winding up at the edge super quickly, whereas the PC world is "near-infinite".[IMGhttp://i.imgur.com/qPr1Bwvl.jpg[/IMG]
Anyone know if they made their billions back? I'm curios to know.They didn't spend billions of dollars to keep people from playing the game.

You should be fine.Thank you. I guess it's middle-of-the-road for the console versions, but what about in absolute terms? Does a map that size feel "super cramped"?

Saying I'm sure a company wishes they had made an insanely profitable product still doesn't seem weird at all. Wishful thinking since I can't prove it? Maybe. Weird? Nope.Saying Nintendo did is a weird statement. You can wish whatever you want
