Does this work for Minecraft on PC? What about games on Steam?

It CAN work with Minecraft and any other game but you would need to download a third party software that allows you to translate the input from the controller into keyboard input. I personally use Joy2Key and I have personally tried this with Minecraft and it does work.

Minecraft doesn't have native controller support, as of 1.6.2 at least. In my experience, Super Street Fighter IV AE, most emulators, and Cave Story+ can work natively as long as you plug it in before starting the game; just make sure to bind all of your controls to buttons. For games that use Xinput (used by games for native Xbox 360 controller support), use 360ce to fool them into thinking your Wii controller is a 360 pad; just be aware that it involves .dll files, which VAC doesn't like when they're played with when it comes to some games. For games that don't have any kind of good controller support, your next best bet is a program that translates controller input into keybindings and/or mouse movement. Xpadder is one such program.

I know this is old but what I have to say could help some people, there is a Minecraft mod that adds gamepad support, and it's really simple to figure out how to install it if you're tech savvy. I tried using this peripheral with the mod, and the controller worked flawlessly. It also feels very natural with the game.

I had to get various software to get it to work. Wii controllers do not have a joystick action button so is not compatible with games that require a Xbox controller.

It works with your Steam account. The only difference is the vendor /cost for the game.

I can play Minecraft on this laptop without it lagging, only if I install the mod "optifine" and turn all the settings to the lowest quality. So, no not really.

Yes, I've used it with steam games. Had to map buttons manually but worked great. :)

It works with any PC though I wouldn't suggest purchasing it. I've had all sorts of issues with it's performance. The seller I received it from never responded to my inquiries. Hopefully this will help your decision.

Im not for sure bout minecraft cause i dont play it but i dont see why it wouldnt, if anything u might need to do like i did and buy an 2gb ram stick which doesnt cost much. Some bigger games like that require more ram space to play

As a matter of fact, I do. I've been playing an MMO as well was a few emulator and Minecraft games and it works extremely well. It's got a lot of graphic options for the graphic card it comes with so I'm able to adjust accordingly, though the default setting work perfectly fine for me. It runs very smoothly and I don't seem to have any latency or lag (except you know the occasional internet hiccup).

It handles many Steam games without issue (New Vegas, Portal 2, L4D2). I'm currently running Skyrim with mods at high setting (not highest, mind). Vanilla Minecraft runs really well, although I had unresolved operating issues with the Feed the Beast modpack.

Graphics Controller Model (integrated) Radeon HD 8330 HDD: 500GB (Minecraft needs 200MB, approx 1/5 of 1GB) Java: unknown base spec, but Java is free to download/update much like Adobe Flash

You might have to configure it to work for games from Steam. I use x260ce app to configure. As 'ian' has mentioned, its a hit or miss. I would recommend xbox controller as well.

Nothing works good with minecraft. Go read a book. Just kidding. yes, this computer will work fine with minecraft. Really depends on your internet speed and your router.

If it's on Steam, it should support the platforms specified. You can check all other games by going to the Steam Store page and check. But yes, it is supported on Windows 8.1.

No clue, never played mine craft on PC but it is an exceptional mouse. I have big hands and this is the most ergonomic mouse I have ever owned
