Holy shit!!!

[Sentura]

I guess people get tired of the cold in scandinavia

[FrieChamp]

That seems like the perfect place for an introvert person who just wants to code videogames in peace.

[Mazy]

Dat Notch, straight baller.

[ElectroSheep]

Ridiculous..

[blackdog]

I wanted to say the same as sentura

What's the point in having the money if not spending it, I would get a villa of some sort as well… nothing that opulent tho, I don't like that sort of thing. But I'd want a personal basketball court XD

Well, I've never been into gossip but it's gonna be interesting what he'll do next

It's a pity Notch is not on Mapcore, It would have been a great point in the "What have you purchased recently?" thread.

If I had his money I would spend that much on a house, but I would get my own built. That house just seems a bit soulless.

[Sprony]

Honestly, I looked at the photo's and I don't see why it's worth 70 million. It has no personality and no identity when you look at it from outside. I've seen far more impressive houses for a lot less money. Besides, like Vilham said, build your own thing. Man, I would build me house with an arcade hall, theater, game room and a fucking underground bat cave.

Or spend the money on cool useful projects instead (See what Evil Mask did with his paypal money for example). One notable thing notch did with his minecraft money is funding AoW3, and thats that.

Yeah, I would buy a game studio and play developer and everyone would hate me for it.

Or even better, I would use the money to track down developers and reboot defunct studios to have them make sequels to the games I love. So I would reboot Bullfrog for Dungeon Keeper, Black Isle for Fallout 3, Westwood for Command & Conquer, Vigil for Darksiders 3 and so on.

Looks tacky and soulless. Money trumps taste when you have it in abundance.

[Nysuatro]

Yeah, I would have guessed he would build his own house then this kind of place.

But whatever makes him happy I cannot imagine having to look at a wall of candy every day, lol

[2d-chris]

It's a lot of effort to design your own house, also the land itself is worth a big chunk of that money, look at that location! But yeah, it looks quite souless, but its not like he can't afford to get it refitted ... 

[Thurnip]

i've seen houses built inside Minecraft more impressive than that one.
