Wow, just wow. This is insane. I have never been so much into Minecraft since it always looked a bit Alpha and glitchy to me. But just moments ago, my mind radically did a 360...Oh wait..a 180. I can't believe how well this team created the Banjo world and now I really want to get started in this.

Yet, I would believe that a special WiiU version with the inclusion of the Gamepad would make this game even better....so how much chance is there that we'll be getting this game..? Is it Microsoft exclusive...was there ever any mention of it being ported to WiiU? Any news at all?



UPDATE: I googled the web...and found this

Believed what? I only said there was a created Banjo themed minecraft world. Other than that I only said that I would like a WiiU Minecraft but after research it seems that that is not possible due to MS licensing.

What is there that I 'actually believed'?

I honestly cant see Rare lasting another 3 years unless they come back to Nintendo. M$ will likely be the death of Rare.

I agree but that was not at all what I was talking about.

My bad. It still upsets me how Rare bit the hand that fed them. Back to the topic.

It's funny enough, not sure why it would blow your mind, though.

And as you linked yourself, unfortunately Notch's IQ is as bad as his coding. Every indie developer seems to fall for the Xbox exclusive thing, must be a lot of money involved into it.

I know, as a dissapointed Banjo fan I created this film 5 years ago. It was my way of saying that changing Banjo would kill its soul.

Minecraft is ms exclusive on consoles for now...

But man... you just stepped through the wardrobe into narnia... Minecraft.... is pure potential, particularly if you are an artist (Dude, i recreated the city of Rhodes... WITH the colossus straddling my harbor XD)

or zelda themes heres one i did XD


And a sunken colossus with its mouth the entrance to a temple



or if you are a programmer/engineer (redstone XD)

and magic, enchantment, apothecaries, farming, breeding, crafting, portals to hell... Minecraft is so awesome!

I agree. Leaving Nintendo was a fatal mistake for Rare.

Yeah, I am getting more and more excited. Thinking about kickstarting my good ol' 360. Or should I do it on my Mac? Which systems works better?

Cause this must have been a very big project to create for the contributors

Those look great! Yeah, I am getting more and more excited. Thinking about kickstarting my good ol' 360. Or should I do it on my Mac? Which systems works better?

I suggest checking around Youtube.

This is far from impressive compared to some of the stuff people make.

[3Dude]

Excuse me, but no. Nintendo sold Rare to Microsoft, not the other way around.

[Tricky Sonic]

Miyamoto beat me to it, but he is right. Nintendo sold Rare to Microsoft. That's why the original team quit, they didn't want to work for Microsoft.

Well everyone got screwed either way you look at it.

It does suck, if you try to compile a top 20 N64 game list, a huge chunk will probably be rare games. Some of the original members have a new Microsoft free studio however.

I would get a 360 if I hadn't had 3 RROD before.
