In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “It's Minecraft he wanted” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 2767 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3516 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “It's Minecraft he wanted” meme mean?
The meme describes a botched gift: a child hoped for a video game and receives an unrelated historical book. The humor comes from the similar sound and look of two titles and from the contrast between a child’s expectation and the result. It is used to talk about a misunderstanding, an ordering mistake or a present that lands far off. The book’s subject is not the point: the engine of the joke is the mix-up.
Where does the “It's Minecraft he wanted” meme come from?
The card sums up the scene: a child receives a copy of Mein Kampf, a book written by Adolf Hitler, in place of Minecraft, a video game hugely popular with young players. The confusion between the two titles, said in a similar way by someone who knows nothing about either, supplies the mix-up. The meme therefore plays on an adult’s mistake of buying the wrong product and on the child’s disappointed face. It circulates as an image or caption, with a mocking tone aimed at the gift error and no other stance.
