I've been waiting for the physical version, out June 30th. Minecraft Wii U Edition, includes the Super Mario Mash-Up DLC. Same price as the Nintendo eShop digital version, but obviously physical disc for those that prefer it, free delivery, 2% cashback with Quidco

You're comparing prices of a title that has been released for sometime on those platforms. I believe the PS4 version launched at around £19, and let's face it, Minecraft is so much better optimised for the Wii U, and has the Super Mario Mash Up pack, so there :stuck_out_tongue:

That price isn't a bargain. The game's years late to the party and they expect Wii U owners to pay more? Get the boat!
Compared to the other versions the Wii U version is overpriced but there'll people here claiming "supply and demand" because it's on a Nintendo platform.

I agree I was hanging for a Wii U version but ended up giving up and getting it on PS4 for £8 a while back. The prospect of now paying £20 ages after is not that appealing sadly...
Great for those that haven't played/want the Mario mash-up though...

It actually seems fair seeing as it comes with several of the DLC add-ons that would have to be bought separately on other versions.

I'll be getting it for my nephew, he only has a Wii U & he's very excited about this, and I'm happy to pay £19.99 for it.

One, the Super Mario DLC is free and two, it's not really better optimised than any of the other versions. That's just false advertisement.
Exactly.
It comes with the free Super Mario DLC pack that's on the eShop. Nothing new.

So much better optimised my @rs€. What's the most unique feature of the Wii U? The gamepad. Do they use it properly. Like hell they do!
The Super Mario Mash Up pack is free and the game released long before this pack was announced.

I've had a look back to my comment, and can't see anywhere where I stated it was anything other than free? Little tongue in cheek joke that has obviously got your backs up.
But it's a launch price title for the Wii U, quoting todays pricing for the Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 4 is absolutely pointless, especially given that it was released on the X360 in 2012. It's £19.99 for a Nintendo Wii U title, an extremely popular title, and you think under £20 isn't a bargain and/or is overpriced? :confused:

I think others may disagree.
