I am bringing this up because of this: "As a 1st party they are about 50% new/remake, when normally they are 100% new and only bring remakes, if at all far later into its life as classics or new play control, etc. ". No, I don't think you got called on it enough times.
New 3DS games by Nintendo:
Animal Crossing - in this entry in the series the player has the role of the mayor in his town.
Kid Icarus: Uprising
Mario Kart - new race tracks can be seen in the screenshots.
nintendogs cats
Paper Mario - new locations, plus allies.
PilotWings Resort
Steel Diver
3DS games that are remakes by Nintendo:
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D
Star Fox 64 3D
Out of 9 games, 7 are new games. Not exactly the 50% the OP was saying.
