Worst console ever, I hope they come to their senses scrap this model and launch next year.

Thats not confirmed, its just a snarky comment froma developer, because Minecraft was originally an indie game.

With Microsoft fucking indie devs, theyre essentially saying they dont want the "next Minecraft". This is where Sony and Nintendo are doing good things.

On that note, I think Minecraft would be brilliant on Wii U.

Well @Blood_Tears the console exclusivity ends next month... so I can see a Wii U or Vita version.

Microsoft doesn't get gaming period, they just know how to market and like to dominate markets.

In all honesty, I'm absolutely shocked.

I've made a bunch of posts and even a thread about how Microsoft has fallen behind in terms of support for indie developers but I've always believed that Microsoft is far to savvy let that stand. I fully anticipated that Microsoft would match everything Sony and Nintendo have done and possibly even one-up them both.

Then came that comment that Microsoft wouldn't let indie developers self-publish. How could they lose so much ground without seeming to care? Are they only focused on the Activisions and EAs of the world?

They could still redeem themselves at E3, of course, but they've really fudged things up to this point, in terms of perception if nothing else. This is a pretty sharp contrast with what indie developers were saying after the Sony presentation.

Arrogance has come back to bit both Sony and Nintendo in previous generations--could it be Microsoft's turn?

WOW Nintendo and few indie devs are making bad comments about the Xbox One...
Yep, Microsoft is doomed :)

Also, you should change your title for "Indie Devs"...

Seems I missed a few of these.

Anyways, you can find others here, including some very harsh words by Phil Fish.

And to top it off, here is Dan Adelman, head of business development at Nintendo and manager of the eShop:

One might think I'd be glad Xbox won't allow indies to self-publish. It's actually a big negative, as indies need more exposure. #growthepie

I wonder who will be the 1st to spin and blame this on PlayStation fans like they are the only individuals who are saying something about MS.

I will be the first: It is all our falt, we Sony fans are bla bla bla (that thing you have said)...

My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Really... "does not like"... Are you okay lol?

"Does not care" would be more accurate or maybe "not making a big deal out of nothing"

... And if you really want me to "dislike" something; it would be your post title as it is misleading people. But I'm not the first one to say that.
