Question

Minecraft

A creeper assist trophy would be cool, but why do lots of people want steve playable? Everything can work, but there are better choices in my opinion. This is not a hate post, if you want Steve in smash, comment why. I'd be hyped if steve was in smash, he's not high on my list, but a character doesn't take the slot of another, so I'd be all for it.

    If you don't want Steve in Smash, comment why not. And don't use Cloud excuses like "Not a Nintendo character, and, He wouldn't work"

    "He wouldn't work" is obviously not a Cloud excuse, just don't use excuses like that.

    The reason Minecraft most likely won't be in Smash is because Microsoft owns Minecraft, so they may only be allowing the game and Story Mode to be coming to the Wii U and nothing else.

    Microsoft is a greedy company, I know they want Minecraft in smash, one of the biggest games ever, for free promotion. They either just didn't approach Sakurai, or Sakurai said no.

    I don't think they want a rival company freely using one of their properties. It would be like if Nintendo could do anything they wanted with God of War.

    They want it in smash for promotion. And its not freely used, since licensing is involved. Like Cloud, he is only in smash because its one of the hugest games ever, and its free advertising. Microsoft is greedy, they bought out minecraft from notch to make money and slowed updates down to 10% speed.

    If Microsoft wants to promote Minecraft, they'll do it any other way than be associated with a rival company's product.

    Thats not true, Smash is the best way to advertise. It's possible that they are aware that Minecraft already has adversisement with youtube. Free use on youtube is the main reason minecrafts huge. Companies do associate with rivals, but only when they have something to gain.

    Here's the thing you're missing. It's all about licensing. I don't think Microsoft wants to let another rival company use their product. You don't see Pokémon on PlayStation or Uncharted on Xbox, so I highly doubt a Microsoft property will appear on Nintendo so easily. There are better ways to promote a game than Smash.

    You don't get it, smash is the very BEST form of advertisement. It's true, microsoft doesn't want anything to do with Nintendo, but they obviously want recognition in smash. It's more than licensing, there are no pokemon costumes in Mario Kart 8 because of licensing. Without a doubt, Steve would be in smash if he was more popular with the smash community, and Sakurai approved...

    Nobody knows the real specific reason, all we know is he isn't in smash, there is no reason. for him to be, or not to be in smash other than DLC being over.

    Microsoft seems to be decently nice to Nintendo with Bill Spencer even saying he would love to see Nintendo games on Xbox One

    If Smash is the best form of advertisement, why aren't other characters from Sony and Microsoft in Smash. Why don't we have Nathan Drake, Kratos, Master Chief, and others appear in Smash? Simple, because Sonyand Microsoft are very protective of their IPs and want to keep their exclusives for their own to keep consumers buying their own products.

    Because nobody wants those characters in smash, including Sakurai. As veiwers, we have no Idea what the relationship between two companies are, and we don't know what goes on in the inside. Smash isn't Microsoft's, of course their characters wouldn't be in because they want them in. During the ballot, different companies were begging people to vote for their character.

    The smash ballot was basically a suggestion box, it does not mean that the character would get in the game. Also, with a lot of fan made smash ballots Steve wasn't among the top seven or ten of those ballets.

    Bayonetta won the ballot, it wasn't a suggestion box. And you have to consider that informed consumers like us, the ones who ingage in the games communities or are even aware of when games are announced are a very low precent. You never saw bayonetta get high on fan ballots.

    On the day of the smash ballot was announced the website said in the description that '' we'll consider turning that character into a smash fighter!'' thus, making it a suggestion box. Even though Bayonetta wasn't among to top picks of those fan made ballots, it didnt stop big youtube channels from suggesting/predicting her to be in the game.
