In the Game File interview Donald took part in (which I can't link sadly since this subreddit is incredibly restrictive about that), one thing he talked about was regarding Samus in Fortnite, as shown from the court documents. Why wasn't she included? Because Nintendo wanted her ONLY on Nintendo systems of course.
Of course, it was always suggested that was the case given it happened with Rocket League, but now we have an official word of mouth saying so.
“They got really hung up on their characters showing up on platforms that weren't their platforms,”
“They would be thrilled to have Nintendo characters in Fortnite, but just only if it's on their platform.”
“For me and for all of Epic, we’re like, ‘That is an absolute must. We want to make sure that Fortnite is the same experience, no matter what screen or device you're playing on.’”
Edit: By the way, despite my "of course" comment, this is not meant to hate on Nintendo. This part from the interview was something I thought was worth sharing.
