Minecraft sales exceed 1 million in first month on PS3
Kaplan noted that the Mojang team is grateful for the support and hopeful that fans are receptive of future updates. As a sales recap, 11 million units of the PC version were sold by last June, and the Xbox 360 version has creeped out another 10 million players with the unsettling hiss of Creepers. Wii U sales are just a bit lower in comparison, as Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson noted in December that there are "no current plans" to reach the console.

KatsumiTryztunKrookodile I like minecraft on the console, of course it's not as good on PC but it's still good regardless, this is great news for Mojang
I've always enjoyed console gaming more than PC gaming (up until recently), but a lot of people would agree that it should just be a PC game haha.
I personally think that it makes an excellent PC game yet should also be on consoles for others as well.
I agree. It is in fact a master piece on the PC, but for those who are not PC gamers they can still enjoy the game on the console.

Why do people care what platform it goes on? PC still receives all the updates first, so its no like they are getting neglected. Its the old, I played it before you, so you shouldn't play it. Why would Mojang not want to make 20 million in a month for a ps3 port?

Hey I was anticipating this for PS3 granted I have a PC and consoles have it for Xbox, PC, and now PS3 it's fun on all of them but will never be as fun as PC but that is amazing that the sales exceeded a million dollars in the first month

AxeInt minecraft is only good on pc imo, but oh well.
I totally agree. You don't have to pay for skins and maps and such. Also, you can download a lot of mods which is nice.
On PC there are ways to bypass paying for it, too. I think they should have stuck with PC but hey, can't blame them for wanting to make more money.
