I never said it out loud, but I remember thinking how stupid I thought Microsoft was for purchasing Mojang for Minecraft. I thought they would sell hardly anymore of it, that the market was tapped out, and that they'd lose a fortune. The following is from wiki, showing how stupid I was for this prediction. Microsoft bought Mojang in 2014.

"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. As of May 2019, over 176 million copies had been sold across all platforms, making it the best-selling video game of all time."

So after they bought it, if I'm reading this correctly, they still sold another 116 million copies. Haha I was terribly wrong.
