Why would they try to buy MH3 with advertising in the region it will release in way later, and almost certainly sell less in? More likely Nintendo is doing this to build a better relationship with Capcom by trying to expand a series that clearly has sales potential. Small risk for a large gain in inter-company politics that have not always been the best.
In other words, they are buying future games.
