Who are Notch again?

Exactly.


Just a guy that dethroned Miyamoto as creator of the best selling game in history. 

OT. What if the third game is actually Minecraft Wii U for 2015?!

It's not.

Except Miyamoto never held that record and neither does Notch. It is Alexey Pajitnov's record. Tetris has sold 170 million copies (70 million physical and 100 million digital) as of January 2010.

Nope, but I certainly appreciate your detailed analysis!


Minecrafts beastiness is difficult to comprehend.

I do wonder how that game became so damn popular in the first place!

Angry Birds sold at least 500 million.

Isn't it free to play though?

I think it was for sale and after big success it became later free to play. But that could be wrong, I'm not too much interested in that stuff.

Tetris is just a game, the same as Minecraft.


It's a game that has been released dozens of times across many platforms - many of the games having different graphics (from black and white to color), different modes, etc. In other words, it's a franchise.



I'm kind of sad because of all the butthurt people here. It was a joke, get it? A joke! If anything, he expressed a wish to play more on the Wii U but not being able to due to there being no games that interest him on it. At least he has a Wii U and has enjoyed it as far as it's been possible... D'uh.

He deserves a holiday after that impressive remark :^)



Some guy, says something obvious on the internet and people get mad. Grow up.

So Minecraft hasn't been released dozens of times across many platforms with differences? Oh wait... it has!


There's a big difference between recent re-releases with neglible differences compared to a game that has been released across decades, by different publishers sporting entirely different modes and in some cases different rules compared to the original.



Sounds like he's saying the Wii U will get Minecraft in 2015. The popularity of this game is ridiculous.

Yep, but maybe he'll port it just for himself and he won't release it to the public. Then next year, on a hot and slow Summer day, he'll casually announce to the world: "I and only I can play Minecraft U! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!"
