Notch could be suffering from programmeritus - a condition where a programmer works a difficult, but fun problem that doesn't help reach the end objective (in his case, making a fun game).

We've all been there - spending months doing something that in the end doesn't matter.

Notch has the ability to make fun games quick, I'd gladly pay for a full version of the last game jam he participated in. If he made a series of demos, then chose the best one he wouldn't be in the dilema he's in now.
