Ok, so since no consoles get infinite world's for limitless resources, we still have problems running out of things like sand for splash potions or for some people that are even at the point of running out of iron to create tools with. This threads sole purpose is for ideas to fix this problem, not "your idea is dumb, do this instead", all ideas are welcome.
I'd like to start off with my personal solutions to fix the problem.
First and most obvious, they could give consoles infinite world's...
Second, they could reintroduce duping glitches to players who enjoy doing so, and things like Sand Generators Redstone devices, etc...
Third, they could add a few more mobs that drop these resources. Example, they could make a Advanced Zombie(Zombie Comander) that spawns 4 special zombies that drop iron ingots to its aid. They could even go as far as saying every 50th or so zombie spawns as said zombie so farms aren't overpowered on developing the iron.
Option 3 in my opinion would be the way to go, creating 1-2 "Advanced" enemies only found in specific biomes dropping 10-20 resources per mob(s).
Add to the list if you have interesting ideas! We need this problem fixed! I don't fancy losing everything in a world due to lack of resources or having to put my legit world in creative mode.
Simple answer, most of the items you desire can already be farmed to unlimited potential, if it can't be farmed it can almost undoubtedly be duplicated easily enough! just google (or youtube) the resource you want to duplicate or farm, and you'll find loads of tutorials available.
Also, a console exclusive gives you the ability to reset your nether an unlimited number of times, which gives you unlimited nether resources.
Actually I found all ps3 duplications are patched. There has been no sand generator since mid 2015, I'm running out of glass in my world's to be more precise... I've nearly harvest all my desert in my worlds... I just don't see why the developers would patch a Redstone sand generator...
Ps. The current duplication glitches are for online (just got patched) and the newest exposure requires to turn off a autosave feature which is ps4 not ps3, I understand ps3 does have the option to turn autosave off, in the option 's menu but due to the fact it does not function the same way the ps4's "button" function. We cannot duplicate the same result.. And to be perfectly honest I do know why they did this.
Talking in terms of Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 : our minecraft glitches have all been patched. Diablo 3 has also stopped updates right before getting the update for the Kania Cube. Terraria has stopped (or seems like) getting updates since the release of their ps4 Xb1 counterparts... It's more than likely that Sony and Microsoft is paying off all these developers to "Force" people to buy into their new systems... I for one can not afford either of these systems... I just want the developers to give us a way even if it means intense grinding, for a better game play experience that includes near infinite resources because I cannot afford their scam.
Edit: I didn't mention, Playstation 4 and Xbox 1 has everything from x-ray glitches to duplication, D3 continues to get updated, and terraria will update for these consoles before last gen consoles.
Though if yourself and other think this topic is indeed pointless, then please post a link showing a 2016 after patch exploit that I can use. It would be very appreciated.
Well here is my idea, Mine around in other places. I don't think you could logically mine away the entire world within a few year. It would probably take a lifetime to do so. So mine around in other areas. Create exspansive cave mines. Do what you can you know?

They aren't all patched, it is possible to duplicate even now.
Have you seen the dup. glitch for diamonds, coal iron etc.?
fill up you inventory with garbage except 2 slots, one with 9 diamond blocks the other empty. Open up your crafting table, and then flip from creating diamond ingots to diamond blocks, I can go from 9 to 20+ in about 1-2 minutes.
this link will show the glitch, although note this: This Youtuber also claims this glitch is patch in a new video. FYI, this glitch is not patched and still works to this day.
And I am not trying to be little you, and I certainly am not saying that your thoughts are pointless, I just want to help you understand that most every item is completely farmable or has the ability to duplicate.
And even when some say that a glitch is patched, sometimes they aren't
Another option is to look for PC 1.8 glitches, sometimes you would be surprised what glitches get ported from PC to console!

Sorry, I missed responding to this part of your post the other day.
You should never run out of glass, and you should never run out of glass because you've smelted all the sand.
FYI, Glass can be purchased from villagers, and as such, glass is an infinite resource without need for a generator.
It is practically impossible for anybody to ever run out of resources like iron or even diamonds in even an 864x864 world, which has 2,916 chunks and about 9,000 diamonds and a quarter-million iron; even if you only explored caves you'd be able to find hundreds of diamonds and close to 20,000 iron (see my thread here about how much ores are exposed in caves; these numbers will vary between versions but are generally accurate).
For another perspective of what those numbers mean, I have a world (PC edition) where I've mined about as much iron ore as an entire CE world contains - which took the equivalent of about two months (1500 hours) of nonstop playing, spending the majority of the time caving (the world is about 20 times larger than a CE world). Nearly all of that iron (more than 27,000 blocks) is stored away in chests; even if I used iron tools and armor I'd have only used a small fraction of it, and likewise I've only used about a quarter of the 6,000+ diamonds I've found (not considering Fortune, which I have not used for a long time because I get more than I need anyway; I explore caves for fun).
I'd be more concerned with things like not having every biome or structure, which were not mentioned and are an all-or-nothing situation (unless I'm wrong I believe strongholds generate differently than the PC version to ensure you have at least one since otherwise it is impossible to get to the End).

TheMasterCaver's First World - possibly the most caved-out world in Minecraft history - includes world download.
TheMasterCaver's World - my own version of Minecraft largely based on my views of how the game should have evolved since 1.6.4.
Why do I still play in 1.6.4?
