Maybe nintendo asked for sonic in return for having mario in the olympics games sega makes

sounds like a fair deal to me.

That's the very opposite of what actually happened. Nintendo outsourced the development of M&S to Sega. "The olympics game Sega makes"... do you actually believe this game would have sold remotely as well without Mario and the other N characters? It's a Mario game, first and foremost, and Sega were lucky Nintendo was willing to involve them.
