"Here’s what Naka had to say about Mario and Sonic co-starring in titles based on the Olympics and the origins of it all:
Actually, I wanted Mario [and Sonic] to appear together, so one time I went to give Miyamoto-san a presentation on how I want to create an action game which is co-starred by Mario and Sonic. It was in the GameCube days, and I took around four planners with me. It is a pity that the discussion was ‘clearly it isn’t necessary for Mario and Sonic to co-star in an action [game]’ and it didn’t become a reality..... I think I’m going to give another presentation so that Takashi [Iizuka] finds the necessity [of a Mario & Sonic action game] (laughs). "
That would be so awesome! Ever since the first Mario & Sonic at the Olympics game was announced, I wonder if we would actually get a proper Mario & Sonic game. There's so much potential for such a crossover, it needs to happen!
