Why doesn't Microsoft make their own Smash game? They have enough characters for at least 1 game.

Most of those characters don't have the star power that Smash has, most of their big IPs have no roots in sidescrollers so trying to shoehorn them into Smash's formula is stupid, its not something that would really interest Microsofts audience and there's no point in trying to arrive late to a battle that Nintendo already won in the late 90's.

Playstation All-Stars showed what happens when you try to lazily clone Smash without thinking things through.

This. Spencer even said on twitter it would be pointless and they would rather concentrate on making Killer Instinct better and their fighting game franchise.

That feel when you can finally talk about KI properly in march without console war shitposting

>3 Gears of War characters where no one cares about
>fable garbage
>Blinx, the most forgettable mascot ever
>a fuck-ton of literal whos
>that guy from ryze son of shit (also on PC)
>3 fucking battle toads
>that character from too human or whatever it was that was shit
>2 valve characters
>Big Daddy, who also appeared in PS Allstars

Your fucking kidding me right? Microsoft has so many forgettable characters and doesn't even own the rights to most 'exclusive' games on their console.

>>320875581
Good idea with the minecraft alts and adding rare characters, but the list is terrible.

>>320876040
This pretty much.

Literally Who Brothers? Guys Who Have Been on Our Console Battle Royal

Just put more Rareware characters into Killer Instinct. Maybe star MS characters too, like Master Chief or whatever else they have

What would the final boss of Microsmash be?

Noble 6 and the rookie would be Chief clones
>>
>>320876040
PSAS wasn't lazily done, it wasn't a direct clone and people didn't like that, hense all the shit it gets. It actually has nice combo based combat that felt nice to play, the only fault (besides the roster) was the balence of some characters. But only about 5, the rest of the cast is pretty balanced.
>>
>>320876837
who even are the halo characters?
>>
>>320877725
why, my peenus weenus of course!! :)
>>
>>320878186
Halo Reach introduced new weapons, and power ups, Noble 6 would not be a clone. And Rookie can use weapons that Chief wouldn't have in his moveset, and could include calling upon his other squad members
>>
>>320875581
90% of characters on that roster are acquired from third party devs that started or got established on the PC or other platforms.

60% are independent IPs and not owned by M$

40% game of the roster are acquired through souless acquisition. all business no heart.

>>320878608
Master Chief
The Arbiter
The Rookie
Noble 6
Spartan John Locke

>most of these are cross platform
>actual exclusives have like 10 characters to represent them
>xbox avatars
This is whhy microsoft is pathetic.

To be fair plenty of Smash Bros character don't have star power either
