The first game is HUGE on PC, selling more than 20 million copies on Windows and Mac.

Do you think that maybe Microsoft will opt to make it Xbox console exclusive to move hardware?

Perhaps timed exclusive on Xbox and later give it a Windows release?

Do think there is space for Micro to release Minecraft 2 on other platforms besides Xbox and Windows PC?

Timed exclusive would be the way to go IMO ...

would be a waste of profits to go exlusive imo.

MS own minecraft... I think they want it to make huge profits, more than they want to get a boost to their Xbox sales.

Not if they want to make money.

No.

Gotta have it on mobile first and foremost. I would think they'd want to get it on everything aside from Sony/Nintendo.

They would try

Nope. It'd make no sense for them to do so.

I don't think it would make any sense. Xbone sales are fine and they want to make money with Minecraft so I'm sure it'll be on PC/Mobile/PS/Nintendo too.

No, it will be Xbox exclusive maybe, but not to console only. MS has two main platforms for Xbox, and that is PC and console.
