Minecraft officially announced for Wii U, Releasing Dec. 17th - Polidicks

I randomly assumed it was already on the Wii U. Shows you how much I care about Minecraft.

Seriously, 30 bucks?

[QUOTE=Swiket;49266051]Seriously, 30 bucks?[/QUOTE] that's the usual price for minecraft is it not?

[QUOTE=Lobotmik;49266725]that's the usual price for minecraft is it not?[/QUOTE] Nah, it's ~20 euros (22 usd)

for those who don't know, nintendo and microsoft are good buddies. [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_games_owned_by_Microsoft_Studios_on_Nintendo_platforms[/url]

it's quite ironic how one of the most successful products of their kind is being put with another product with one of the least successful products of their kind

Steve for Smash Bros when?

[QUOTE=Lobotmik;49268033]God no, his moveset will probably consist of deconstructing the stage and replacing it with lava blocks[/QUOTE] Imagine a Creeper mob that you could call in that players can bat around before it explodes, like high-stakes hot potato.

[QUOTE=Banhfunbags;49267797]Steve for Smash Bros when?[/QUOTE] That's a funny way to spell Banjo.

[QUOTE=Banhfunbags;49267797]Steve for Smash Bros when?[/QUOTE] Never, if these 15 people have a say in it: [url]https://www.change.org/p/nintendo-prevent-steve-from-being-included-in-super-smash-bros[/url] Calm down, goddamn. :v:

C'mon, Microsoft, we've had this standard going for 25 years and you come in and mess with our system. Get your asses in gear and fix your dang controllers k'thx.

But yeah, I'm aware of how Xbox rose of out the ashes of SEGA hardware and so how their legacy can be traced further back, but damn it, I'm not unlearning the scheme I grew up with and still use today!

[QUOTE=Zero-Point;49264937]That's cool and all but uh... Modding API?[/QUOTE] The very same modding API that xbox 360/xbox one/ps3/ps4/psvita got: None.

Microsoft doesn't compete in the handheld market, so they make games for Nintendo consoles in that market specifically. An MS game on a Nintendo home console is pretty unusual. Don't forget they bought Rare just so Nintendo couldn't have them.

When I play nintendo, "A" registers as the button on the right. My hands just feel the interface they're holding and they do the rest.
