They paid 2bn for Minecraft, not sure if 367m is just software sales or merchandising as well but the merchandise is everywhere here in the UK and it seems to sell well.
- NDizzle 10y agoThe merchandising is awesome too. I see kids with creeper backpacks and I wish I had things like that when I was that age.
