Those sales would be counted in the VGC total though as the game launched only on XBLA at the time that was the announced sales by Notch back then before a retail version showed up to make up the rest of the sales that VGC that's still an assumption.

Where did you get the April 2014 numbers from?

https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-04-04-minecraft-xbox-360-edition-sales-hit-12m

Selected quotes:

"The Xbox 360 version of Minecraft has now sold an astonishing 12m copies."

"Minecraft's total sales across all platforms are somewhere near 40m - (12m on Xbox 360, 14.7m on PC, more than 10m on mobile and at least 1m on PlayStation 3"

From other wiki sources later it hit  "As of 10 October 2014, the game has sold 17 million copies on PC, becoming the best-selling PC game of all time.[208] As of 10 October 2014, the game has sold approximately 60 million copies across all platforms, making it one of the best-selling video games of all time"

This happened after PS4/XB1 launches and before PSV launch, but the majority was still 360, PC, mobile and PS3 sales.

And lastly "As of January 2018, over 154 million copies had been sold across all platforms"

Okay thanks
