Steve has a lot of accomplishments.
That being the case, I can only use what actually happens in each universe to measure "power level", if we are comparing each protagonist's strength, but at the end of the day, it's all just a popularity contest.

That said, I'd have to agree that Minecraft Steve wins, but only because of his Smash Bros. debut. A good number of the Characters from the Nintendo Universe have faced World Ending Events and emerged victorious (just like the Terraria Player); Minecraft Steve is fighting Heroes on that kind of level. Still, the Player Character from Terraria is pretty darn powerful too, and likely has the hardest game out of any Character in the Smash Bros. Roster, especially with how customizable the Worlds/ Seeds in Terraria are.
Steve just has too much star power though, and would likely have power-ups from different Minecraft Games, and now sits up on a throne with the likes of Mario, Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny; Plot Armor is the strongest armor there is, unfortunately.

- He is the main character of the biggest, most popular indie game ever made.
- His gameplay style created an entire genre of other games (a mostly original idea).
- He made it into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
- He's the only guest character in Smash that broke Twitter (not even Sora did this).
- Terraria has one of the largest, most complex, gameplay guides and index in the world.
- Is one of the most customizable, player-friendly games on the market.
- Is one of the most community-content supportive/ supported games on the market (mods, texture packs, music etc.).
- Consistently remains as one of the top 25 most-played games on Steam.
- Is right up there with games like Skyrim, as far as developer/ community support is concerned.
