Probably seed code or wire system connection.
Does anyone think it will be possible to transfer a world (not just a seed) from the xbox version of the game? Maybe via USB drive or something? Would love to continue one of my builds on a mobile device so I could bring it into work etc to use at lunch time etc...
That creeper plush is rather phallic-looking, to those of us with more than two testicles anyway.
Every time I see a kid wearing Creeper merchandise I die a little inside. The pig is cute though.
Now we're selling Minecraft merchandise??
Look, I know the bills must be paid but I rather see Nintendo related merchandise.
Never understand why people find amazing this game.
"...you can now play on the go."
Minecraft Pocket Edition? It's been out for quite some time.
It still says the game is coming soon for me.
Those handbooks are suspect. How long until the game has changed too much for them to be useful?
Might get story mode when it comes out
@Whiny_Britches Vita version too.
The auto link to Amazon are pretty dumb/offensive. The handbook collection advertises itself as £6.99 but clicking it reveals a price over twice that.
I've got the eye of the spider
@Spoony_Tech we're
If you're going to be a grumpy old man you have to do it right.
Maybe My Nintendo can start exchanging plat coins for Minecraft skins, probably a dozen of those at launch not included in the $30 price.
@Spoony_Tech I hear ya, but I like this sort of thing more than ads all over the page and overlapping content. At least they are doing some curating and if you hate it you can skip the page altogether. Web site revenue is actually a pretty tough get.
For anyone contemplating them, those books are quality, but you have to be okay with them going out of date slowly over time. Still, we bought them one by one (way back) and the price isn't bad for something that can act as a great little primer resource for beginners that is more organized and personal and direct than say, looking at huge web references or watching a bunch of YouTube videos.
has anyone had any of the lego sets. trying decide if they are worth it
@Ebefren Because it's fun.
I have played it since 2011, and I still play to this day.
@aaronsullivan Indeed, the previous set of books came out shortly before the big Combat Update, pretty much rendering it useless. However, for people still picking up the game the books are useful... I'd say a guide to redstone is ALWAYS handy!
@rjejr Fixed but I'm still grumpy lol
@Spoony_Tech "Fixed but I'm still grumpy lol"
Yeah I should have read this one before my latest reply to you, think I dug myself a hole there's no getting out of.
@rjejr just don't dig 6 feet down. I still like reading your comments, rants, or otherwise common sense posts.
@rjejr I was going to ignore you just to see how it works but thought if I ignore you and can turn it back I would lose you forever lol. So I ignored someone I don't know and they're gone forever lol. Their comment just disappeared and I dont know how to get it back.....
@Crono1973 That too...
@Ebefren It's a game that can literally be whatever you want it to be. It's not for everyone, but it has tons of potential for those with a creative flair. Some people spend years building giant kingdoms and stuff.
@Spoony_Tech Now I'm tempted to ignore myself to see if it creates a black hole and destroys the universe.
Nope, that option isn't available, though I can Report myself. I wonder how they arrived at that decision?
Should we let people ignore their own comments?
No, who would do that?
But what if it's a bad comment?
Well we'll just let people Report themselves instead.
So did you really ignore someone at random? What actually happened? Does it show a # w/ nothing next to it or does it delete it entirely and renumber all of the other posts? If people ignored Thanos and I some of those 200 comment NX articles would have been about 50 comments long.
Oh, and don't worry, we always have Twitter.
@Spoony_Tech I never see any other news sites doing this and, frankly, it's annoying. It seems very desperate. I can't imagine Nintendo Life is struggling to pay the bills without this.
@rjejr I'm not sure if it renewed all other posts but it was as if they were never there. That whole comment section gone.
@Spoony_Tech Well hopefully you don't miss anything good on my account.
