Minecraft Xbox Edition doesn’t support local multiplayer for SD TVs

Kotaku reports some Minecraft fans have been disappointed to discover the Xbox 360 Edition doesn’t support split-screen play on standard definition tellies; port developer 4J Studios has confirmed you’ll need an HD cable and display. Minecraft’s not exactly visually demanding so it seems a bit odd, but there you go: if you’re fronting a CRT and looking for some couch-buddy good times, save your 1600 MS Points.

I thought that achieving the same experience on SD and HD TV was part of the requirements set out by Microsoft… perhaps I’m wrong.

Not really surprised. You can hardly read the text on a 46″ FullHD in Two Player Splitscreen.
