They're adding underwater mobs and "bosses".
...
I know I'm gonna get flamed for this one, but these updates just keep getting weirder and weirder. This game is turning into an RPG...

i think minecraft on the wii u would be cool ( i dont own one but i dont care if it comes on wii u) the only thing i would want is no special care for the Nintendo console versions like them getting brand new features or anything of that sort of nature and use the excuse we want them to feel good too.

but minecraft 3ds your joking right? now i want to see what minecraft vita is like if its unplayable or laggy and just not good then there is no way a 3ds version will be made

(skin packs and all that is cool but i dont want any one of the 3 versions of the game sony ms or if this one comes to get exclusive features)

Minecraft is constantly updating. Nintendo uses disc- and hard-drive-based games, so whatever game they release; it will have to be in complete form.

They have DLC formats now, so they can do constant updates, just like the others.

PS3/4 and Xbox 360/One have exclusive skins and additions, so why not for the Wii U?

but minecraft 3ds your joking right? now i want to see what minecraft vita is like if its unplayable or laggy and just not good then there is no way a 3ds version will be made I'm pretty sure the Wii U can handle MInecraft. But it could be my fanboyness, though.

._. Good point. But there's just not much in the oceans.
Quote from ZzAa009

Nobody knows Minecraft is confirmed on Ds Wii.Well i know.And How you ask?Well I am a Nintendo game designer myself.It will have finite worlds,and there will be less lag.But the only problem is The Terrain Generation System is Pocket edition like,but Nintendo doesn't have enough power to GENERATE worlds.There will be a separate folder (games/com.mojang/Minecraft worlds) and you have to put your worlds in it.Be in mind that a world with many blocks will freeze the Ds or Wii.I have ported pocket edition myself and tried it on nds and Wii and it worked fine.The maps will be PE like with .DAT files but all the data will be in a single .DAT file.So the reason of Minecraft coming to DS and Wii's?To increase its popularity much more.

Actually, it's 3DS and Wii U.
Quote from Lumpystuff

It would be really cool if Minecraft got ob the Wii U. Tge gamepad would work perfectly with the inventory, where you can just swipe the items into place while performing otger tasks, and maybe maps could work well on it also.

I'm pretty sure games could be updated on the Wii U (and I don't mean dlc). I'm not so sure about the 3ds 'cuz I don't have one.

They do. Games like Pokemon X/Y release patches, just like Microsoft and Sony consoles, but just not as common.
Quote from Jhska

I like the 3DS idea, not the Wii U. xD

Why not?
Quote from ORabbit

I have a Wii. It lives in a very dark corner of my closet. Did anyone actually buy the Wii U?

Yes.

Quote from Mustang83

It would make since if Minecraft came to the Wii U but not not the 3DS. Minecraft would be awkward to play on the 3DS if the 3DS was capable of playing it.

How? I think it's perfect! It's stronger than iOS and Android, so why not?

first off sorry i think the wii u could easyly handle minecraft but not sure what version the ps3/360 one (856 by 856) or the ps4 ones that have 56 000 by 56 000 but i dont think the 3ds is powerful enough to run a console version of the game (right now ios and android have 40 000 by 40 000) they had to make a few cut downs for the vita version (graphics wise) and that thing is way more powerful then a 3ds (plus duel analog sticks makes first person games play much better)

sorry i forgot to say skin packs were fine and all but not exclusive features (there are non at this time for ps3 and 360 i own both the 360 plays better in my mind though)

2DS IS a 3DS, just with no 3D. So it will compatible.

ya it would work but not well

minecraft on the 3ds/2ds (i own the 2ds like it more then 3ds) just would not work there not powerful enough to run it well. now some people will say how do you know? well minecraft vita (yes i own a vita as well) has to have limitations so it can run now none of these are huge cut backs (shorter render distance and things of that nature) and the vita is MUCH more powerful then a 3ds

I own both the 3DS and the Wii U and I say it's about time they are going to put Minecraft on the Nintendo systems! Just think how cool it would be to see this game in TRUE 3D without glasses and to be able to play it anywhere! Even the idea of a Wii U version sounds pretty cool. Just think of the options they could implement into the second screen. I don't care what anybody says, I think this is a GREAT idea and I already own this game for XBOX 360!

Half this thread is just little kids bashing on the 3DS because their parents didn't buy it for them. I like the idea of MC in 3d, but it would need to be very well implemented. I own both the 3ds XL and a WII U and I would love to see the second screen in the WII U being taken advantage of considering it's size and how easily it could be put into a game.

Minecraft on Wii U sounds good, but I don't think Minecraft on 3DS would work if they don't find a way to make it control good. The arrow buttons and the circle pad are on the same side. The Wii U's GamePad/Pro Controller would work better.

I think it would be cool to see Minecraft on Nintendo devices, but i dont think it would sell considering that many people are not into DS or Wii U anymore. Besides, I don't think Mojang would ever posibly team up with Nintendo considering that they don't have the best and biggest gaming systems in the world. Many people did not get Wii U because they didn't like the Wii in the first place. I don't think Minecraft on Nintendo devices is going to be very big if it happens.

used to have a 3ds, when i turn on, no screens flash, zoops off afterward.

Gonna get a replacement one so that if minecraft is on it, i will play it.

Should be like xbox 360 edition, if not, then should at least have multiplayer on start. I also support fact, although for wii u...
