A lot of Smash characters were added due to requests from their creators - I wonder what would happen if a game dev or CEO with connections to Sakurai (specifically one who isn't repped in Smash already) asked for a character they didn't create or own? Like if Toby Fox said "don't put in a Sans costume, put in a Kumatora costume instead" during his visit to Sakurai's for example. Would Sakurai/Nintendo try to persuade (or even blackmail) them into allowing their own character? Would they completely ignore the request? Would they openly say that the character/costume was chosen by that person when they get in?
