why is minecraft published by Nintendo?
 
Serious question:

Shouldn't this be a given? When RE4 launched it only launched on one system. RE4R launched on multiple.

That's actually kind of pathetic.

Big budget remake, releasing on five different platforms across two generations - PS4 being one of the the most successful consoles ever in the UK - can only sell 29% more than an exclusive game that only released on GameCube (a system often considered a flop).


Came in to point this out. If anything I'm actually impressed with GameCube sales considering it was exclusive to that platform. The remake is available across so many platforms, yet was only able to pull a 29% gain? weird.

You are reading it wrong, it's a 29% gain only on physical copies, and if I recall correctly, more than 50% of sales are digital nowadays. So it actually sold at least 2 if not closer to 3 times the amount of copies the GCN version sold.

Which again makes tons of sense considering how much easier it is to get copies of the game across multiple systems and formats.
