Last time Nintendo did that we got the wonderful CDI games. Hotel Mario anyone?

But they're happy to have characters like Snake in Smash?

Snake was actually on nintendo consoles with the first Metal Gear

But isn’t that the opposite scenario? (Someone else’s IP on their platform)

Why is that a problem? Their a business, they aren't required to be consistent regarding others IP vs theirs. Each is an isolated brand decision

snake is not a nintendo character

Logical consistency isn’t really Nintendo’s thing
