The popularity of ''Minecraft'' has led to many third-party companies basing their own games upon it, or crossing over with the ''Minecraft'' franchise in some way. For example, [[Square Enix]]'s ''{{iw|wikipedia|Dragon Quest Builders}}'' series is a mix between ''Minecraft''{{'}}s blocky design and survival genre and {{uv|Dragon Quest}}'s characters and role-playing genre. The Nintendo console versions of ''Minecraft'' include the {{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Mash-Up Pack}}, which comes with custom graphics and worlds based upon the {{uv|Mario}} series; other IPs represented both in ''Super Smash Bros.'' and ''Minecraft'' include {{uv|Sonic the Hedgehog}}, {{uv|Mega Man}}, {{uv|Pac-Man}}, {{uv|Street Fighter}}, {{uv|Final Fantasy}}, {{uv|Banjo-Kazooie}}, and {{uvm3|Tetris}}.
