Forums - Gaming Discussion - Phil Spencer: "I'd Love to See Mario on Xbox"

"I’d love to see Mario on Xbox," Phil says enthusiastically. "As someone who’s been in this industry and played games forever, I’ll still say it: Nintendo has the strongest first-party of anybody. They’re just fantastic and the memories that they have instilled in so many of us, who’ve played their games and had those delightful experiences, having those on Xbox would be great. Obviously we have Minecraft on Nintendo and when that opportunity came up to work with them on Minecraft, you know, some people might look at it and say ‘why would you even do that?’, but with Nintendo, it’s been a great partnership on Minecraft. In fact they put Mario in Minecraft on Wii U with the mash-up skin pack. And continuing to work with them on that and building a stronger relationship... I mean if that paid dividends down the road that lead to something else, that would be fantastic. I know I get questions all the time on would I ever like to see Banjo in Super Smash Bros. and I’m, like, “yes, I would do that in a second”. And certain people think I’m saying that as some sort of PR answer and I’m, like, why wouldn’t you? 

Anyway, I’m a big Nintendo fan and I think they’ve been incredibly important for the games industry, they do a great job with younger audiences, and if we ever had a chance to work with them in the future, I would absolutely do it."

It would be nice to have some Nintendo games on Xbox. Always good to hear from Phil.

Mario should be welcome on any gaming platform, it won't happen anytime soon, but who knows. If at any point Nintendo games, even spinoffs from mobile, come to Windows, its definitely possible.

People saying nintendo is doomed don't look at the complete picture. Even if nintendo drops out of the hardware race, they'd make a Killing by releasing their games on other platforms like xbox, playstation, steam, etc.

Everything is possible. I like to see Halo on Switch (It almost made it to the DS ^.^).

I'd love to see world peace and cancer cured.

People say Nintendo is doomed if they DON'T do that. Of course thy're not doomed if they go the only logical path.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Having more games on your console is always a good thing, and it's not like they would be shovelware :p

The only way I can see mario being on Xbox is making a MinecraftXMario DLC.

Just thinking about not wanting to cure world peace is a sin in my book
