** There are also various fanmade Smash Bros. clones, the most notable example being the ''VideoGame/SuperSmashFlash'' series for its inclusion of more third-party characters and anime characters. The second game fits the MascotFighter genre more closely than the first due to exactly replicating Smash Bros.' gameplay and physics.

* ''VideoGame/BlazBlueCrossTagBattle'' is combination of four franchises: ''Franchise/{{BlazBlue}}'', ''VideoGame/Persona4Arena'', ''VideoGame/UnderNightInBirth'', and ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}''. The first three had some involvement by Creator/ArcSystemWorks, though ''[=BlazBlue=]'' was the only one fully created by them; ''Persona 4'' is an RPG by Atlus that [=ArcSys=] developed the fighting game spin-off ''Arena'' for, while ''Under Night In-Birth'' was developed by French Bread and published by [=ArcSys=] in Japan. ''RWBY'' appears as the overall guest franchise, though it also fits in a sense as the late creator Creator/MontyOum was a BigNameFan of ''[=BlazBlue=]''. Later updates would include characters from ''VideoGame/ArcanaHeart'', ''VideoGame/SenranKagura'' and ''VideoGame/AkatsukiBlitzkampf''.
