Jesus. Notch may very well have one of the best selling PC games of 2011.

Maybe he can hire someone to code now.

Over 4 million now.

16,126,264 registered users, of which 4,013,344 (24.89%) have bought the game.

In the last 24 hours, 41,137 people registered, and 7,562 people bought the game.

And it's at $21.95 now...

5 million sold; that's $25mil in the last 3 months alone. Good god.

and he's not even coding it anymore :P

6 million sold. This isn't even counting the 1mil+ units the Xbox360 version sold.

I don't know how Notch stays sane. Even after taxes and profit sharing among the small employee pool that's a huge amount of money for one person.

29,875,246 registered users, of which 6,000,236 (20.08%) have bought the game.

In the last 24 hours, 83,602 people registered, and 8,997 people bought the game.

Edit: Eurogamer pegs total sales at 9.2M between the various versions. Which in laymen terms is a metric ****ton.

7 million sold. That's 4 million copies (80 million Euros!) in a hair over a year.

3 months later and another million copies have been sold. They're up to 8 million copies now, and that's just the PC version.

8million people play this game

0 people on our server :sad:

I would play it quite a bit if tekkit was on it. I got my own server that im on a lot screwing around in.

I haven't been playing lately due to all the other games right now (aka GW2).

That and I've got builder's block...

It's official: Minecraft prints money.

Dec 25th sales alone were 453K copies (across all platforms).

Meanwhile total sales have reached at least 17.6mil copies. 5mil for Pocket Edition, 8.63mil for the standard edition, and at least 5mil for the Xbox version. That's a net increase of 8mil copies (86%) in the last 6 months.

9 million sold. That's only a bit more than 2 months after the last million, thanks to the huge Christmas push.

When's the last time a PC game sold 10 million copies? Because in the next few months that's happening.

Oh, and Pocket Edition is up to 7.3mil units, which is a massive jump from just a month ago.

Go **** yourself ViRGE.

WTF crawled up your ass today, D? Is there something wrong about posting about Minecraft in the Minecraft sub-forum now?

10 million sold.

Another 2-3 mil and they'll outsell everything except The Sims 1 & 2.

11 million sold (actually that was a few days ago; it's up to 11.1m now)

And another 7mil now on the 360.
