Microsoft has a large library of wholly owned IP to draw characters from for such a game, but it doesn't sound like Spencer-who is part of the team at Xbox responsible for greenlighting games-is interested in the idea.
'I find others less interesting just me.' Nintendo's fighting game series pulls characters from its long list of industry-topping games, including Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, and Pokemon, among others. 'I love but for me it works cause it's Nintendo and their incredible IP lineup,' Spencer told a fan on Twitter. It sounds like that's not going to happen, at least not anytime soon, according to Microsoft Studios executive Phil Spencer. If you're holding out for a Super Smash Bros.-style fighting game for the Xbox One featuring mascots like Master Chief or Marcus Phoenix, here's some bad news.
