At this point people who refer to Minecraft as a fad are just as ridiculous as the folks who said the same thing about Pokemon in the early 2000s. It's just as popular as ever, appeals to pretty much all ages and skill levels, and is n...

When I played years ago, Minecraft was a lonely and contemplative chill-out exploration game backed by soothing tunes from C418. That's how I preferred to play it, anyway. I kept the action to a minimum. Going in the completely opposite dir...

I haven't played Minecraft in what feels like ages, but even as a non-player, I have to marvel at the lengths Mojang and Microsoft have taken to unify the game across platforms. The Nintendo Switch version is next in line to receive cross-p...

Minecraft's next patch, dubbed the "Aquatic" update, will be the final update for the last-gen versions of the game. The reason for this decision is that Microsoft has decided to focus its effort on improving the versions of the game where ...

Minecraft still has not received the "Better Together" update on Nintendo platforms, but we're getting a step closer to that reality. Launched just today, people with a Switch or Wii U can dress up their characters as Master Chief from Halo...

The Minecraft-like Dragon Quest Builders will build its way over to the Nintendo Switch on February 9, 2018 for both the US and Europe. Both the physical and digital version will launch on the same day. Nintendo let the news out on both Twi...

Fan fiction. These two words, hair-raising to the average individual, nonetheless apply to a variety of things that do appeal to a large audience. Between the oddity of the Frasierverse, to these confusing Minecraft books for kids, to the r...

One of Minecraft's biggest updates ever will be arriving in the spring of 2018, which will host a complete overhaul of aquatic gameplay. Appropriately dubbed the "Update Aquatic," the ocean biome will now randomly generate objects like cora...

The Wii U version of Minecraft was basically put out to pasture when it wasn't included in the "Better Together" cross-play update. In summation, any version of the game that retains the "Edition" moniker will be limited to its own platform...

The big day for Minecraft unification is at hand. Mojang and Microsoft have finally launched the "Better Together" update for nearly every version of the block building game, save for a last minute delay with the Switch port. This new updat...

It may have taken 16 years to happen, but Halo's Master Chief will finally be playable on a Nintendo platform, though not necessarily in a way that fan's have wanted. Due to Microsoft going all in with their "Better Together" updates for al...

In case you hadn't already heard, Minecraft is out on the Nintendo 3DS. While having Minecraft on 3DS is pretty awesome it will unfortunately not be getting the Better Together update. For those unfamiliar, the aforementioned update will be...
