Goku is not a Namco-Bandai character. Their involvement with Dragon Ball is just limited to having the license to make videogames based on the franchise, as well as other kinds of products through the Bandai side. A hypothetical appearence of him in Smash might even be outside of what they are allowed to do, having to renegotiate the rights to put him there. It's basically like asking Activision for TMNT or Marvel characters...
Letting Goku in is, at the very least, opening the door to all manga/anime characters to appear in Smash in the future. None of Nintendo's "odd moves" set a new precedent like this would, so that's a moot point. If anyone is seriously interested in arguing in favor of Goku being here, then they would need to take all this into account. A justification for all this.
