Minecraft quickly took a million sales on the Wii U, any thoughts on how long it would take on the Switch?

The Democratic Nintendo fan....is that a paradox? I'm fond of one of the more conservative companies in the industry, but I vote Liberally and view myself that way 90% of the time?

We know it sold 1 million on Wii U?

I'm gonna say before Odyssey releases.

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Needs a darn physical release. Minecraft is the sort of game that I'm not that interested in on a console usually, but for some reason appeals to me in short bursts in portable mode... but I'm waiting for the physical release.

I'd say not long after the physical release, maybe even before but we wouldn't know anyways unless they said something.

It will take less than a year. Minecraft is an easy game to sell everywhere.

You know it deserves the GOTY.
