Crossovers are the sort of thing that many fans swoon over. There’s nothing like seeing a beloved series or character combined together with another. The why of it is hard to pin down, but a big part of the allure has to be the novelty of seeing two things mixed together that normally aren’t. Normally, crossovers are confined to wishful fan fiction rather than actual games, but there are times when developers mix their chocolate and peanut butter to make something wonderfully different. This time around, from games to key cameos, we’re going to take a look at the best crossovers that have graced Nintendo’s systems!

    Hmmm.. This list has me pondering the differences between “crossovers” and “cameo appearances” due to number 5.

    That being said, thanks for the great read Robert!

    Depending on what we’re talking about here, my own personal list might include NES Remix, as well as those bizarre Mario appearances on the Gamecube EA Sports games (“SSX On Tour” and “NBA Street V3”) Having Mario, Luigi and Princess play hoops against Carmelo Anthony and other NBA stars on an urban basketball court is just strange. Very unique and surreal.

      In my defense, I will say that I did note that “key cameos” would be on the list, lolol. Glad you liked it! I thought about those appearances, too. I also weighed Mario and Sonic Olympics, but Smash felt like the better one to represent that intermingling.

    My bad for not noticing your “key cameos” comment on your intro. That’s just sloppy on my part. Apologies! Again, Loved the list! Not sure how you manage to consistently churn out so many great features. Nintendojo is better for it.

      Thanks OG! I’m just lucky I work with such great people here, I think we all feed off of each other’s energy and it makes us write better. Keep reading, and we’ll keep trying to do a great job for all of you.
