Make a goddamn game then... occupy your time and make good use of the money you just earned. FFS, its not like there is no need for an extra 2.5 billion in this world.

Sadly, any game he makes will be unfairly compared to Minecraft and the additional scrutiny will probably make him even more depressed. There is no way he can ever top Minecraft. That is like Jerry Seinfeld making a sitcom that tops "Seinfeld", it can't be done.

Yeah, Miyamoto should have stopped after Mario...

Miyamoto is a rarity. Given Notch is going through a breakdown, the odds are against him. Miyamoto never let it get to his head and never received such publicity(no internet back then, only gaming magazines essentially). I never saw Miyamoto publicly bitching about his fame/money/success lol.
