I know you want to make it as small as you can, but you know what? its not so important. It can be as big as my hand, even my two hands. Just, please incerese performance enough to play minecraft at at least 24 fps. Really, as a very experienced computer-console-etc user, i can say i choose bigger but better (bigger like a hand) than current very small but low performance.

It's not supposed to be a games machine. It is being built to a price rather than a level of performance

Sorry the Raspberry Pi doesn't seem to be the right platform for you, but it isn't designed for playing resource-intensive games (although no doubt it will be stretched to perform all manner of tasks that were never invisaged). As you will see from the FAQs and elsewhere, the Raspberry Pi is primarily designed as an inexpensive platform to enable and encourage young people to experiment with software and hardware engineering.  To that aim, it is designed down to a price, rather than up to a spec.

I shall close this thread, as there are many others covering similar ground on these forums.
