1080p on Android since 2011.

Eh Android, you could easily mentioned PC also then.

That's because PS3 and Xbox360 use 2006 Tech.

Motherless, game was launched in 2011. for PS3/Xbox 360 while for Switch was launched in 2017.

Still don't get your point though. Minecraft running at 1080p is something that already was common in 2011. PS3 and X360 naturally couldn't do that in 2011 because they belong in the year 2006.

Actually let me take my point back. Minecraft was already running at 1080p in 2009.

Because it wasn't common on consoles back in 2011. Only consoles that have 1080p Minecraft are XB1/PS4 and now Switch.

If we're talking PC, I'm pretty sure you could play Minecraft in 4K in 2009.

Oh sorry. I forgot that Minecraft never existed on anything other than consoles.

Still, you're proud of beating 10 year old consoles with a 2017 console. 10 year old consoles that were already long outdated when Minecraft released.

Here we talking about game for console, don't see point comparing it with other platforms outside consoles.

Doesn't have anything with proud.

Now the game has an acceptable resolution with an acceptable view distance and 60fps.

You are wrong, we didnt had 4k displays in 2009. The projection of movies at 4K resolution at cinemas began in 2011.

It isn't.
It is the most powerful handheld console though.

If there is a will, there is a way.

I was being sarcastic :p

 

It's meant to mock the people who act like it's a strong home console. Tbh I hate all discussions surrounding its power. It's weak as a console, and it's strong as a handheld. Not much else to be said
