Phil Spencer, the head of Xbox at Microsoft Corporation , said in an interview with AusGamers that he’d love to see Super Mario, owned by Nintendo, on the Xbox. According to the executive, Microsoft is interested in teaming up with Nintendo in order to bring Super Mario to Xbox One. Expressing his love for Nintendo, Spencer said that the Japanese consumer electronics and software marker has “the strongest first-party of anybody.”
Spencer is a big Nintendo fan. “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.”
Super Mario On Xbox
“I’d love to see Mario on Xbox,” Spencer said when speaking AusGamers.
“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,” he added.
The gaming community is expecting that Microsoft and Nintendo will join their hands again to bring Super Mario to the Xbox. The two companies have already worked together in the past to bring Microsoft’s Minecraft game to Nintendo’s Wii U system. Fans are hoping that Nintendo will soon return the favor.
For a long time, the gaming community has been speculating that Nintendo will bring Super Mario games to Xbox One.
“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,” Spencer said.
The Microsoft gaming chief also said that he love to see Microsoft characters like Banjo Kazooie in Nintendo games such as Super Smash Brothers.
“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?” Spencer said.
Super Mario and Microsoft Xbox Scorpio
Microsoft Corporation is building a powerful gaming console, the Xbox Scorpio, which is expected to be launched at the end of 2017. If the Microsoft-Nintendo partnerships comes into fruition, there is a possibility that Super Mario will appear on the Scorpio, according to a report from News Every Day.
The Scorpio will feature 6 teraflops of GPU, delivering a true 4K gaming, according to the tech giant. The firm touted the Xbox Scorpio as the most powerful console ever. The console will feature eight CPU cores; over 320GB/s of memory bandwidth; six teraflops of GPU power; 4K gaming support; and VR support.
The Xbox Scorpio will use the Universal Windows Platform games that are compatible with Xbox One and Windows 10. The console will support the Xbox 360 Backward Compatibility program.
