Minecraft broke the one million sales mark just weeks into the new year, and since then has sold hundreds of thousands of copies at an incredibly fast rate. With a mobile release of the game approaching, it’s time to start speculating about the possibility of a console release and what it would mean for the game.
Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.
Ben Porter from Newzoo explains that the player base has very little overlap with mainstream hits such as Assassin's Creed: Shadows and Ghost of Yōtei
I used to buy cheap games thinking I’d play them later, but I always ended up returning to my favorites. Now I skip the deals unless I know I’ll play the game soon.
This is very true, my nephews grew up on these two games and whenever I introduce them a AAA game whether old or new, it's like seeing an alien try to make sense of it and then quickly lose interest in it.
Can’t really expect a 8 year old Roblox kid to go buy resident evil 9 lol
Gaming trends are so weird to me now. Like, I’m old school and games were consumed essentially how movies were. You play through a title and look forward to the sequel or other things that came out. Now, that is so not the norm.

Agree with the article, Minecraft would work on console, but the network play would need to be revamped a bit, and perhaps structured a bit too. I suppose that's one of the reasons why it's still a beta. I'm sort of fine by setting up own servers and writing down IP adresses on PC, but on console I expect it to be understandable for everyone who can get their hands on the game.
Also, I think it would do very well with standard controllers. Move wouldn't make Minecraft a better experience, I think.
yes would love it on PSN or xbla market place
Minecraft: Kinect!
:P
Only on the PS3 I guess. M$ won't allows mods.
Notch has too small a development team to do this. And why would you need it on console anyway? Just about any PC can run it.
