Yeah, if you call earning truckloads of cash shooting yourself in the foot, then sure!
Minecraft is still selling like crazy. You don't hear too much about it because it's mainly digital and we don't have any numbers because it doesn't rely on steam or any other platform. But it is available on any device you could possibly imagine and just like GTA, it just can't stop selling. Really big factor is the mobile market. It sold nearly 50 million copies on Android alone and right now sits at number 2 of the game charts. I think it looks quite similar on iOS but I can't check right now. Then there are in-app purchases. Skin-pack with Mario = instant cash for example.
Don't you worry, Minecraft is a license to print money.
