According to The Verge, the Nintendo Switch edition looks to be much the same as the Wii U version. And while the popular game "Minecraft" is already available on a huge range of portable devices, this game console nature of Nintendo Switch could potentially make this an ideal version.


As reported by Engadget, Nintendo revealed the release date for game "Minecraft" during the Nintendo Direct live stream. The company also announced more details about other game titles such as "Arms, Splatoon 2", and many more diversions heading to both the 3DS and Switch.

One of the biggest objections about the Nintendo Switch, when it came out, was the very few and limited game titles available to play. Another complaint was the lack of the Virtual Console for the system. Mark your calendar! Remember that "Minecraft" game will be available on the Nintendo Switch starting on May 11. It will be priced at $29.99.
