I always thought Minecraft was free. When did they start charging money for it?
Isn't that what it costs on all platforms?
When I was a kid we wanted the best graphics, now kids want the worst graphics.
Stop this nostalgia cr*p.When I was a kid we wanted the best graphics, now kids want the worst graphics.

It's always been the same: some kids want graphics, some prefer funny games.
And to make things more confusing, there is also a Minecraft for Windows 10, that is different from the Java version that runs on Windows and Mac. The Windows 10 edition is more in line with the console edition, and I believe can play with the Xbox One. Thankfully the Windows 10 edition is (or was) free if you owned the Java version.I think the breakdown of versions goes like this.
Mobile "Pocket" edition (iPhone and iPad)
Full Windows/MAC Java version for PCs.
Console version (PS3,Xbox360,PS4, Wii U, Xbox One) which is like the PC version but more limited.
I'm guessing the aTV version matches the console one.
It's a big pass for me but I am not a Minecraft fan.
But I would like to know who it is for?
If you are serious about Minecraft, what benefit does this version give you?
I would think it would be the last version you would buy.
The smart kids get Minecraft for free with $25 to $30 Raspberry Pi 3 which can do a lot more than Apple TV.
People are playing games to have fun?Yeah, try finding a NES Classic for Christmas.
I don't know what's up with people. I'm trying to sell my old gaming rig with a GTX 970, so I can get a 1080 to play at 4K. Looking at games like The Witcher in 4K just takes your breath away.
No - Says it requires the game controller.Mine craft using the ATV remote??
I am an avid gamer (PC and console) yet I don't get the attraction of Minecraft. My 11 year old abso-freaking-lutely loves it. If I would allow it, she could exist on Minecraft and Hot Pockets. If she owns it, Minecraft is on it.
But isn't the Siri remote a game controller as well?No - Says it requires the game controller.
For you, $30!And how much for those of us who aren't interested?

Wow. Own on iOS devices. Should be free if purchased on iOS already.

Anyone recommend a decent MFi game controller?
My 6yr old son gets limited daily iPad time. During those sessions, he bounces between building his own world in the iPad version or watching stumpycat navigate through his world via Kids Youtube. He's pretty pumped Minecraft is coming to tvOS.
If I can figure out a decent MFi game controller and secure it by xmas morning, this might make for "the big gift" this year.
What say the community, re: MFi controller recommendations?
Cheers!
I have the Nimbus Steel Series and it sees it fine. I won't know how well it works though until the kids come over but Minecraft did see it instantly.Anyone recommend a decent MFi game controller?
