It certainly helps that Genndy Tartakovsky and Darrick Bachman, the show’s creator and writer respectively, were on board during development.

Spoilers proceed from here out regarding both the show and game. Keep that in mind before continuing on below.
There’s been a lot of talk regarding the direction of the Paper Mario series as of late. One comment that recently made the rounds came from producer Kensuke Tanabe, who said that the team is no longer able to “modify Mario characters or to create original characters that touch on the Mario universe.” Although that is a notable restriction, it sounds like they have a significant amount of creative control otherwise.
Speaking with Eurogamer Germany, Tanabe said the team has had “almost complete control over the creative direction of the game” going back to Paper Mario: Color Splash. It also sounds like Shigeru Miyamoto is not really involved at this point.
According to Tanabe, which we’ve translated as follows:
Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have announced that Corrin: Child of Dusk will soon be added to Fire Emblem Heroes as the latest Legendary Hero. She’ll be going live on August 31. Other Heroes will also be appearing.
