ALSO, Mojang has commented on the possibility of Minecraft coming to Nintendo platforms: 

Mojang targets new platforms for Minecraft

Minecraft is already huge on mobile, PlayStation, Xbox and PC, but developer Mojang says there are more platforms to come.

And it dismissed concerns that being owned by Microsoft will hinder expansion to other consoles.

“If I had my way, we’d be on everything,” COO Vu Bui said. 

“We want to continue to be available to all players, and that means being on new platforms because everyone uses something different.” 

Could that include Nintendo machines?

“I’ve never heard a reason why we haven’t ended up on Wii U or 3DS. It just hasn’t happened yet.”

Honestly, if it came to the Wii U, I'd probably get it. I've been wanting to see what all the fuss is about, and I just don't feel like buying it on my PS3 lol.


Minecraft would kill on the 3DS in Japan.

Here is My Strategy
1. Start a Huge Ass Marketing campaign beginning in September(put it on prime time, kids shows, sports(like NFL,PL,MLB,etc.).
2. Advertise MM,SF,XCX,MTU,and Fatal Frame V(and Yoshi for NA)
3. Same for Japan just replace Yoshi with IR#FEand whatever TGS game announcements from 3rd Parties(MH4U I hope).
4. Bundles and Limited Edition Bundles Galore- XCX for EU/NA, MM/Splat WW, MK8,SPLAT, and SSB WW IR#FE JP, Star Fox NA

a. Now in terms of limited editions: MM: WW, XCX:West,Star Fox NA and EU

5.Price Drop to $200

6. Drop 2016 Game announcements(more spinoff titles, confirm NX as a handheld and they have plenty of more titles.)

7. Unleash more Amiibo

Nintendo should do way better with Wii U then last year if they go by my strategy(which will not happen at all).


The problem is you don't quite see the big picture. From a perspective of the sidelines, this would work. But from a legitimate business perspective, this would not work at all. 

 

Nintendo can't just "pick up" this strategy, it just doesn't work that way.

Yeah I know:

Buisness sense would be  mostly bundle older games and maybe bundle MM.

So this essentially confirms Notch, the previous boss, was just being a dick, right?

Absolutely. Minecraft is very popular with kids in Japan, and the 3DS has that market on lock with games like Yokai Watch. It would probably sell 1m+ in its first year on the market in Japan alone.

It's amazing to me that Minecraft hasn't seen a release on Wii U and 3DS just for Japan alone. Especially considering that Nintendo platforms are pretty much the only ones these days that are capable of multi-million sellers.



I have finally beaten Sin & Punishment Star Succesor, damn either I really suck at on-rail shooters or the game it's really difficult, but I loved every second of it, music, the bosses everything was great, even if I didn't understand much of the story.

Ok Nintendo where is Sin & Punishment 3

3ds version would do ungodly in Japan.

Wii U would do ok. Maybe a little more than the ps4 version, who knows.

I think Minecraft would do great digitally since Wii U digital is rapidly improving(looking at XCX 23k first month and Splatoon at 58k or more a few weeks back).

Exactly. The west may not see as strong of sales, but Japan would more than make up for it.

I hope the platforms he's talking about are indeed the Wii U and 3DS. I mean, I can't imagine what else they would be. Minecraft is on everything under the sun at this point, except Nintendo.

Just went back and played a few matches on For Glory after a 2 week hiatus. I remember why I stopped again... :/
