Has Nintendo's Efforts to Entice Third Parties Worked Against It?

Could someone give an example of Nintendo working hard to court a third-party? I can think of many such examples from Microsoft (courting Japanese third-parties, giving a $50 million loan to Rockstar, internal teams to help third-parties such as Epic, various system bundles with third-party games, sharing advertising costs, etc) but I'm not aware of even close to that kind of effort from Nintendo.

I don't follow the Japanese market much, but some specific examples off the top of my head:

Capcom - Monster Hunter 3 - Bundles, marketing

Square Enix - Dragon Quest X - Promised marketing in the West

 

There has also been talk of Nintendo working more closely with developers behind the scenes.
