:Hmm... Thing is, up until now everyone of us have been referring to these things as "franchises", because that's what these are by themselves (the Pokemon franchise, the Mario franchise), and Universe has been treated as a synonym of Franchise. The term "world" sounds more like it refers to a specific world within the franchise, which is why that never seemed an effective alternative to "universe" or "franchise".

::I totally understand this. But we should also consider how Sakurai, the owner of DOJO, names these things. He names it, in his filenames, as world and not universe. He accepts that these franchises are just worlds not universes. The conflict comes up with what we call worlds in the games. Even Mario games has various worlds that have levels in it. If we were to follow Sakurai's logic, these worlds are only sub-worlds in one encompassing big world. I see our logic as well that due to many worlds, it should be called a universe. But, whose logic is more important when it comes to Smash, Sakurai's or ours? They created the game, we are merely playing it.
